What it does

Browser Agent is an agent skill from OyadotAI/oya-browser. Control a real browser via Oya Browser MCP tools. Use this skill when the user asks you to browse the web, interact with websites, fill forms, scrape data, or automate browser tasks. Provides the mental model and strategies for effective browser automation through structured markdown and numbered element IDs.

When your agent uses it

  • The user asks you to browse the web
  • Interact with websites
  • Automate browser tasks

Example prompts

  • “/browser-agent”

Workflow steps

5 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. Navigate: go to the URL
  2. Analyze: call analyze_page to see the page as markdown with numbered elements
  3. Act: click, type, scroll, press keys using element IDs
  4. Re-analyze: after actions that change the page (clicks, form submissions, scrolls), analyze again to see the new state
  5. Repeat until the task is done

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 1b2dc05. 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

Browser Agent loads about 2k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 81 tokens; SKILL.md has 872 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~81
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~2k

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 872 words (~1,951 tokens).

“You have access to a real Chrome browser through Oya Browser MCP tools. The browser has real cookies, logins, extensions, sites see a real user, not a bot. You control it through structured commands, not raw HTML or CSS selectors.”
