What it does
Kuri Server is an agent skill from justrach/kuri. Use kuri-server to automate Chrome via HTTP API — navigate pages, get a11y snapshots, interact with elements, capture network traffic (HAR), extract cookies, and bypass bot protection. Use when the user wants to browse websites, scrape data, fill forms, test web apps, or interact with protected sites via a headless browser. Trigger phrases include "browse to", "open the page", "get the page content", "fill the form", "capture network traffic", "get cookies", "bypass bot protection".
Its SKILL.md is about 6.2k 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, REST APIs and Web scraping. The repository describes itself as: Browser automation, web crawling, and iOS + Android device control for AI agents. Zig-native, token-efficient CDP snapshots, HAR recording, native adb wire-protocol client, and a…
When your agent uses it
- The user wants to browse websites
- Interact with protected sites via a headless browser
- Phrases include browse to
- Get the page content
Example prompts
- “browse to”
- “open the page”
- “get the page content”
- “/kuri-server”
Requirements
- Node.js
- Pre-approved tools (allowed-tools): Bash
Workflow steps
9 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.
- Prefer session headers — set X-Kuri-Session and let the server remember the current tab. This covers nearly every tab_id=X endpoint above…
- Use /page/info between steps — it is the cheapest live state check for URL/title/ready state.
- Use compact interactive snapshots — filter=interactive&format=compact gives refs like e0, e1 plus useful state such as checked=false…
- Bot detection is automatic — if navigate returns {"blocked":true}, read the fallback.suggestions.
- HAR for API discovery — start HAR before navigating, then use /har/replay?filter=api to find the site's API endpoints.
- Cookies transfer — use /cookies to get browser session cookies, then make direct curl calls.
- Refs persist per snapshot only — take a new snapshot after any navigation or meaningful DOM change.
- Native browser experiment is separate — kuri-browser is useful for parity work and benchmarks. Its serve-cdp router is minimal…
- Idle tabs don't self-update — screencast frames, exposed-binding calls, network records, and trace/download completion only get pulled off…
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 8c4f5b9. 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
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Runs code
Shell commands in SKILL.md call:
curljq
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
Hosts in commands or code, which the agent is likely to contact:
news.ycombinator.comtodomvc.com
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
Kuri Server loads about 6.2k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 125 tokens; SKILL.md has 2,447 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: notes
The automated check noted patterns worth knowing about, such as sudo or a known installer.
- NotePre-approves every shell command (allowed-tools: Bash)SKILL.md
allowed-tools: Bash
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.
SKILL.md
Its licence (Custom licence) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 2,447 words (~6,245 tokens).
“kuri is a CDP automation server. It launches Chrome, connects via WebSocket, and exposes an HTTP API for browser control. Zero Node.js, single binary.”
