What it does
Brightdata is an agent skill from Microck/ordinary-claude-skills. Progressive four-tier URL content scraping with automatic fallback strategy. USE WHEN user says "scrape this URL", "fetch this page", "get content from", "can't access this site", "use Bright Data", "pull content from URL", or needs to retrieve web content that may have bot detection or access restrictions.
Its SKILL.md is about 1.4k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 1 other file (for example `metadata.json`).
It sits in Data & Analytics, covering Web scraping. It works with Bright Data. The repository describes itself as: An unappealing collection of Claude Skills and resources.
When your agent uses it
- User says scrape this URL
- Fetch this page
- Get content from
- Cant access this site
Example prompts
- “scrape this URL”
- “fetch this page”
- “get content from”
- “/brightdata”
Workflow steps
4 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.
- Tier 1: WebFetch - Fast, simple, built-in Claude Code tool
- Tier 2: Customized Curl - Chrome-like browser headers to bypass basic bot detection
- Tier 3: Browser Automation - Full browser automation using Playwright for JavaScript-heavy sites
- Tier 4: Bright Data MCP - Professional scraping service that handles CAPTCHA and advanced bot detection
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 1056d29. 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
Links to these hosts (documentation or services it may open):
dynamic-site.comprotected-site.comdifficult-site.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
Brightdata loads about 1.4k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 80 tokens; SKILL.md has 677 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.
SKILL.md
Its licence (Custom licence) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 677 words (~1,413 tokens).
