What it does
Credential Manager is an agent skill from BetterWright/betterwright. Read this before any login, signup, password change, or checkout so the right credential source is used in the right order without ever exposing a secret.
Its SKILL.md is about 1.1k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.
The repository describes itself as: A persistent, policy-guarded Playwright browser for AI agents — network policy, encrypted credential vault, proof screenshots, and CAPTCHA solving. The licence is MIT.
Example prompts
- “/credential-manager”
Workflow steps
4 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.
- A configured external manager. If the operator prompt explicitly names
- BetterWright's built-in vault. credentials.list() returns matching
- The page itself. Focus the username field with human.click and

What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit ec55a32. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
Tool permissions
Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Runs code
No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
No URLs in SKILL.md.
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Credentials
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Context cost
Credential Manager loads about 1.1k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 43 tokens; SKILL.md has 547 words of instructions outside code blocks.
Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.
Safety
Auto-check passed
The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.
Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

Credential manager
Use metadata to choose an account, then let the password manager detect and fill the form. Never fetch, inspect, transform, or print a stored secret.
Source order
Work down this ladder; stop at the first source that works.
- A configured external manager. If the operator prompt explicitly names
1Password or Bitwarden, use its inline menu and read the matching provider
pack first (
../1password/SKILL.md,../bitwarden/SKILL.md). - BetterWright's built-in vault.
credentials.list()returns matching metadata only: id, username, label, category, saved URL, and match mode. Filter withcredentials.list({text, category}). If one account clearly fits the task, callcredentials.fill({id, submit: true}). BetterWright detects the visible form and resolves/types the secret internally. MCP/Pi'sbrowser_loginand the SDK'sfillCredentialuse the same path. - The page itself. Focus the username field with
human.clickand re-snapshot; a session may already exist, an SSO button may be present, or the user's own password manager may surface. - Ask the user through the host's question mechanism, offering the accounts you found as masked options (e.g. "account ending in 999"). This is the last resort, not the first.
Account choice and staged login
- Search before filling. One clear match may be used directly. If several plausible accounts remain and the task does not disambiguate them, ask with usernames/labels only; never mention a secret.
- On a username-first flow, enter the selected record's public username and
advance. On the password stage call
credentials.fill({id, submit: true}); password-only pages are detected. - Detection uses autocomplete/type/label/form context. If it reports multiple
plausible forms, scope explicit
usernameSelector,passwordSelector,currentPasswordSelector,confirmPasswordSelector, orsubmitSelectorfrom a fresh snapshot. For an ambiguous rotation, pin current, new, and confirmation password roles together. Do not guess selectors before detection fails.

Signup and password rotation
- Call
credentials.generateAndFill({username, submit: true}). Generation returns only an opaque pending id; the encrypted provisional entry is not an active saved login yet. - Verify the site's visible success state. A clicked button or request alone is not proof.
- On success, call
credentials.commitGenerated({pendingId}). On rejection or abandonment, callcredentials.discardGenerated({pendingId}).
If generation fails but returns pendingCredential, do not generate again.
Inspect the visible site outcome, then commit or discard that exact recovery id.
After a complete host restart with no returned id, revisit the signup site and
call credentials.listPending(). Use its secret-free username, label, and
timestamps to identify the attempt; never guess or auto-pick among several.
For rotation, pass the existing credential id to generateAndFill. Commit
only after the site confirms the change; commit updates that item instead of
creating a duplicate. Rotation preserves its URL scope, so update matchMode
separately before rotating when needed. Choose an existing username/email when
the site allows it; never invent an address.
Rules
- An empty
credentials.list()means no enabled item matches this site under its URL policy. Fall through the ladder instead of searching unrelated credentials. - Never read, print, encode, or transmit a password, card number, or one-time
secret. Snapshots and results redact password inputs; keep it that way: no
inputValue(),input.value,evaluate, console, or network probes on secret fields. - A failed fill ("info isn't correct") means the stored secret may be stale: try the next source on the ladder, then ask the user — never brute-force variants.
- Save a task-supplied credential only when the user asks to remember it, and only after the site accepts it.

Credential Manager is an agent skill from BetterWright/betterwright. Read this before any login, signup, password change, or checkout so the right credential source is used in the right order without ever exposing a secret.
How do I install Credential Manager in Claude Code?
Run `npx skills add BetterWright/betterwright --skill credential-manager -a claude-code`. Or copy the skill folder (skills/credential-manager in BetterWright/betterwright) into .claude/skills/credential-manager in your project. Claude Code loads it when a task matches its description.
How do I install Credential Manager in Codex?
Run `npx skills add BetterWright/betterwright --skill credential-manager -a codex`. Or copy the skill folder (skills/credential-manager in BetterWright/betterwright) into .agents/skills/credential-manager in your project. Codex loads it when a task matches its description.
Can I use Credential Manager in Cursor, Gemini CLI or GitHub Copilot?
Cursor, Gemini CLI, GitHub Copilot and OpenCode also load SKILL.md folders. With the skills CLI, run `npx skills add BetterWright/betterwright --skill credential-manager -a cursor` (or -a gemini-cli, github-copilot or opencode for the others). To copy it by hand, put the folder in .cursor/skills/credential-manager, .gemini/skills/credential-manager, .github/skills/credential-manager and .opencode/skills/credential-manager in your project.
What does Credential Manager need to run?
SKILL.md names no scripts, command-line tools or credentials: Credential Manager is instructions for the agent only.
Does Credential Manager access the network?
SKILL.md contains no URLs. Any network use would come from the scripts or tools the agent runs. This is read from the text; nothing was executed.
Is Credential Manager safe to install?
Our automated static check of SKILL.md found no risky patterns, such as piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files or hidden Unicode. It is not a guarantee. Review the folder before installing.
What licence does Credential Manager use?
Credential Manager is published under the MIT licence (the repository's licence). It allows redistribution, so the full SKILL.md is shown on this page.
How many tokens does Credential Manager use?
About 1.1k tokens (SKILL.md is roughly 4.4k characters). Agents keep only the skill's name and description in context until a task matches; then they load SKILL.md in full.
What are the alternatives to Credential Manager?
