What it does

Oya Browser is an agent skill from OyadotAI/oya-browser. Drive real Chrome browsers through Oya Browser. Start a browser on Oya Cloud, Browserbase, Steel, Anchor or Browser Use under a persistent persona, read pages as markdown with numbered elements, click and type, solve CAPTCHAs and MFA, and hand off to a human when needed. Use when the user asks to browse a site, automate a web task, fill a form, log in somewhere, scrape, or run several browsers at once. Works through the @oya-ai/browser SDK (which signs itself up and pairs the user's desktop browser with their…

Its SKILL.md is about 2.1k 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. It works with Model Context Protocol, Browserbase, Playwright and Puppeteer. The repository describes itself as: The browser control plane for AI agents. One API over Oya Cloud, Browserbase, Steel, Anchor, Browser Use and your own Chrome, with persistent personas, CAPTCHA and MFA handling…

When your agent uses it

  • The user asks to browse a site
  • Automate a web task
  • Log in somewhere
  • Run several browsers at once

Example prompts

  • “/oya-browser”

Requirements

  • Node.js
  • A credential in OYA_API_KEY

Workflow steps

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

  1. start_browser, starts a browser and makes every other tool drive it. Optional: persona ("auto", "default" or an id), provider, url.
  2. navigate(url), then analyze_page().
  3. Act: click(element_id), type(element_id, text), press_key(key), scroll(direction, amount?).
  4. analyze_page() again after anything that changes the page. Element ids are reassigned on every analysis.
  5. stop_browser() when you are done. A running browser costs money.

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

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • claude
    • npm

    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:

    • oyabrowser.com

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names these keys or tokens, usually read from environment variables:

    • OYA_API_KEY

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Oya Browser loads about 2.1k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 143 tokens; SKILL.md has 972 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~143
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~2.1k

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 972 words (~2,129 tokens).

“Oya gives you real Chrome browsers behind one API. Each browser runs as a persona: a fingerprint, cookie jar and proxy that stay the same across runs, so a site sees the same device every time. You drive it by…”
