Browser automation CLI for AI agents. An agent skill from hashgraph-online/awesome-codex-plugins.

  • The user needs to interact with websites
  • SKILL.md covers Start Here and Critical Fallback
  • Calls npm
  • Including navigating pages

What it does

Kachilu Browser is an agent skill from hashgraph-online/awesome-codex-plugins. Browser automation CLI for AI agents. Use when the user needs to interact with websites, including navigating pages, filling forms, clicking buttons, taking screenshots, extracting data, testing web apps, logging in to sites, posting to social apps, handling CAPTCHA workflows, or automating browser actions. Load the core guide to choose between host-provided sessions, MCP tools, and CLI commands.

Its SKILL.md is about 660 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in Productivity & Automation, covering Browser automation and MCP servers. The repository describes itself as: A curated list of awesome OpenAI Codex / ChatGPT plugins, skills, and resources. The 1 Codex Marketplace. See live plugins at: https://hol.org/plugins/best-codex-plugins. The licence is Apache-2.0.

When your agent uses it

  • The user needs to interact with websites
  • Including navigating pages
  • Clicking buttons
  • Taking screenshots

Example prompts

  • “/kachilu-browser”

Requirements

  • Node.js
  • Pre-approved tools (allowed-tools): Bash(npx kachilu-browser:*), Bash(kachilu-browser:*)

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 9e7b281. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves these tools, so the agent can use them without asking each time:

    • Bash(npx kachilu-browser:*)
    • Bash(kachilu-browser:*)

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • npm

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use npm, which can reach the network depending on how they are called.

    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

Kachilu Browser loads about 655 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 104 tokens; SKILL.md has 262 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~104
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~655

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.

kachilu-browser

Browser automation CLI for AI agents. Chrome/Chromium via CDP with accessibility-tree snapshots and compact @eN element refs.

Install: npm i -g kachilu-browser && kachilu-browser install

Start Here

This file is a discovery stub, not the usage guide. Before running any kachilu-browser command, load the actual workflow content from the CLI:

bash
kachilu-browser skills get core             # start here: workflows, control-plane routing, CAPTCHA, troubleshooting
kachilu-browser skills get core --full      # include references and templates when needed

The CLI serves skill content that matches the installed version, so instructions do not drift when the package is upgraded. The core guide contains the Kachilu human-like interaction defaults, control-plane routing rules, rich composer safeguards, CAPTCHA workflow, and the command reference.

If the host already provides a pre-attached browser session, CDP endpoint, session ref file, or explicit kachilu-browser --session ... --cdp ... command, use that host-provided session through the CLI. Do not switch to MCP prepare_workspace or auto-connect unless the core guide says that no host-provided session is available.

For MCP hosts such as OpenClaw, keep using the same prepared workspace session across related browser work in one user request, even when moving between sites such as LinkedIn and X. The site hint is for routing only. Do not close the workspace between those steps unless the user explicitly wants cleanup. If the daemon still exists but the browser connection is gone, treat that workspace as stale and reconnect instead of reusing it.

Critical Fallback

If an element-targeted click fails but the visible cursor is already on the intended button or control, take a screenshot/capture and confirm the cursor is on target. Then click at the current cursor position:

bash
kachilu-browser mouse down left
kachilu-browser mouse up left
kachilu-browser snapshot -i

Use this after visual confirmation instead of repeating the same failing ref or locator click.
