What it does
Browser Automation is an agent skill from borghei/Claude-Skills. This skill should be used when the user asks to "build web automation scripts", "check browser automation for detection", "generate web scraping code", "create form filling automation", or "build anti-detection browser scripts".
Its SKILL.md is about 900 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 6 other files, including scripts and reference files (for example `references/browser-automation-guide.md`, `scripts/anti_detection_checker.py` and `scripts/form_automation_builder.py`).
It sits in Productivity & Automation, covering Browser automation and Web scraping. The repository describes itself as: 385 AI skills, 77 expert agents, and 900 stdlib Python tools for every team: engineering, PM, marketing, C-level, compliance, business ops, research, and a LinkedIn toolkit… The licence is MIT.
When your agent uses it
- Asks to build web automation scripts
- Check browser automation for detection
- Generate web scraping code
- Create form filling automation
Example prompts
- “build web automation scripts”
- “check browser automation for detection”
- “generate web scraping code”
- “/browser-automation”
Requirements
- Python 3
Workflow steps
4 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.
- Analyze target with scraping_toolkit.py to generate base code
- Check generated code with anti_detection_checker.py
- Address any detection signatures found
- Test with progressive rate limiting
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 4a698e8. 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
Ships 3 files in scripts/ (Python), which the agent can run.
Shell commands in SKILL.md call:
python
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
Browser Automation loads about 897 tokens when it runs, and up to ~1.5k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 62 tokens; SKILL.md has 317 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); the scripts in this folder are not scanned.

Browser Automation
Category: Engineering Domain: Web Automation
Overview
The Browser Automation skill provides tools for building robust web automation, checking scripts for bot detection signatures, generating form automation code, and creating web scraping solutions with rate limiting and best practices.
Clarify First
Before generating automation, confirm these inputs. If any is unknown or vague, ASK — do not assume:
- Target site & task — the URL and exactly what to automate or scrape (drives the generated selectors and flow)
- Which tool — audit an existing script, build form automation, or generate a scraper (selects
anti_detection_checker.pyvsform_automation_builder.pyvsscraping_toolkit.py) - Politeness strategy & authorization — polite vs aggressive, robots.txt compliance, and that you are permitted to automate this target (sets request delays and backoff in the generated code)
Stop rule: ask only the 2-3 that most change the output. If the user says "just draft it," proceed and list your assumptions at the top of the artifact.
Quick Start
# Check automation script for detection signatures
python scripts/anti_detection_checker.py --file ./my_scraper.py
# Generate form automation code from HTML
python scripts/form_automation_builder.py --url https://example.com/form --output form_script.py
# Generate scraping code with rate limiting
python scripts/scraping_toolkit.py --url https://example.com --strategy polite --output scraper.pyTools Overview
| Tool | Purpose | Key Flags |
|---|---|---|
anti_detection_checker.py | Audit automation code for bot detection signatures | --file, --format |
form_automation_builder.py | Generate form filling scripts from HTML analysis | --url, --html-file, --output |
scraping_toolkit.py | Generate web scraping code with rate limiting | --url, --strategy, --output |
Workflows
Build Reliable Scraper
- Analyze target with
scraping_toolkit.pyto generate base code - Check generated code with
anti_detection_checker.py - Address any detection signatures found
- Test with progressive rate limiting
Automate Form Submission
- Provide form HTML to
form_automation_builder.py - Review generated script for field mappings
- Customize data sources and validation
- Run anti-detection check on final script
Reference Documentation
- Browser Automation Guide - Anti-detection techniques, rate limiting strategies, ethical scraping practices
Common Patterns
Polite Scraping
- Respect robots.txt directives
- Implement exponential backoff on errors
- Use 2-5 second delays between requests
- Identify your bot with a descriptive User-Agent
- Cache responses to minimize repeat requests
Anti-Detection Best Practices
- Rotate User-Agent strings realistically
- Randomize request timing (avoid fixed intervals)
- Handle cookies and sessions properly
- Avoid headless browser fingerprinting tells
