skyvern-browser-automationAI-powered browser automation — navigate sites, fill forms, extract structured data, log in with stored credentials, and build reusable workflows.
Skyvern Browser Automation is an agent skill from sickn33/agentic-awesome-skills. AI-powered browser automation — navigate sites, fill forms, extract structured data, log in with stored credentials, and build reusable workflows.
Its SKILL.md is about 3.5k 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, Forms and invoices and CI/CD. The repository describes itself as: AAS Core is the local, agent-first control plane for complete catalog discovery, agent-owned selection, stack validation, and planning, backed by 2,400+ agentic skills. Includes… The licence is AGPL-3.0.
6 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit b84d35a. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
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.
No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md (its code samples are bash).
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Links to these hosts (documentation or services it may open):
github.comFrom URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Skyvern Browser Automation loads about 3.5k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 43 tokens; SKILL.md has 1,034 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.
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.

.claude/skills/skyvern-browser-automation/SKILL.md (or your agent's skills folder).Skyvern uses AI to navigate and interact with websites. Every command below is a runnable skyvern <command> invocation.
| Classification | Signal | CLI Command | Cost | What Happens |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Quick check (yes/no) | "is the user logged in?" | skyvern browser validate | 1 LLM + screenshots | Lightweight validation (2 steps max), returns boolean. Cheapest AI option. |
| Quick inspection | "what does the page show?" | skyvern browser extract | 1 LLM + screenshots | Dedicated extraction LLM + schema validation + caching. |
| Single action (known target) | "click #submit" | skyvern browser click/type | 0 LLM | Deterministic Playwright. No AI. Fastest. |
| Single action (unknown target) | "click the submit button" | skyvern browser act | 2-3 LLM, no screenshots | No screenshots in reasoning. Economy a11y tree. For visual targets, use hybrid mode (selector + intent). |
| Same-page multi-step | "fill the form and submit" | skyvern browser act or primitive chain | 2-3 LLM or 0 LLM | Use act when labels are clear. Use click/type/select directly when you know selectors. |
| Throwaway autonomous trial | "try this once", "see if this works" | skyvern browser run-task | Higher | One-off autonomous agent for exploration. Do not use for recurring or multi-page production automations. |
| Multi-page or reusable automation | "navigate a multi-page wizard", "set this up", "automate this weekly" | skyvern workflow create + run | N LLM + screenshots | Build a workflow with one block per step. Each block gets visual reasoning, verification, and reusable run history. |
MCP note: if you are using the Skyvern MCP instead of the CLI, prefer observe + execute for same-page multi-step UI work. The CLI does not expose that pair directly.
act.validate -- not extract or act.act or a primitive chain.try this once, see if this works, or clearly wants a one-off exploratory trial, use run-task.set up as automation, use workflow create.skyvern browser login.Every browser command needs a session. Create one first:
# Cloud session (default -- works for public URLs)
skyvern browser session create --timeout 30
# Local session (for localhost URLs or self-hosted mode)
skyvern browser session create --local --timeout 30
# Connect to existing browser via CDP
skyvern browser session connect --cdp "ws://localhost:9222"Session state persists between commands. After session create, subsequent commands auto-attach.
Override with --session pbs_.... Close when done: skyvern browser session close.
skyvern browser validate --prompt "Is the user logged in? Look for a dashboard or avatar."Returns true/false. Cheapest AI option -- prefer over extract or act for boolean checks.
skyvern browser extract \
--prompt "Extract all product names and prices" \
--schema '{"type":"object","properties":{"items":{"type":"array","items":{"type":"object","properties":{"name":{"type":"string"},"price":{"type":"string"}}}}}}'Uses screenshots + dedicated extraction LLM. Better than screenshot+read because Skyvern's LLM interprets the page.
skyvern browser click --selector "#submit-btn"
skyvern browser type --text "user@co.com" --selector "#email"
skyvern browser select --value "US" --intent "the country dropdown"Deterministic. No AI. Three targeting modes:
--intent "the Submit button" (AI finds element)--selector "#submit-btn" (CSS/XPath, deterministic)skyvern browser act --prompt "Click the Sign In button"
skyvern browser act --prompt "Close the cookie banner, then click Sign In"Warning: act has NO screenshots in its LLM reasoning. It uses an economy accessibility tree. Fine for well-labeled elements. For visually complex targets, use MCP observe+click or hybrid mode.
skyvern browser act --prompt "Fill the shipping form and click Continue"Use act when the fields and buttons are clearly labeled and the flow stays on one page.
If you need tighter control, break the work into click, type, select, press-key, and wait.
skyvern browser run-task \
--url "https://example.com" \
--prompt "Check whether the checkout flow works end to end and extract the confirmation number"Use run-task to prove feasibility or do one-off exploration. If the task becomes important enough
to rerun, debug, or share, convert it to a workflow.
skyvern workflow create --definition @checkout-workflow.yaml
skyvern workflow run --id wpid_123 --wait
skyvern workflow status --run-id wr_789Each navigation block runs with visual reasoning + verification. Split complex flows into multiple blocks (one per page/step). First run uses AI; subsequent runs replay cached scripts.
skyvern workflow create --definition @workflow.yaml
skyvern workflow run --id wpid_123 --params '{"email":"user@co.com"}'
skyvern workflow status --run-id wr_789Split into one block per step. Use navigation blocks for actions, extraction for data.
First run uses AI; subsequent runs replay a cached script (10-100x faster).
Set --run-with agent to force AI mode for debugging.
Always verify after page-changing actions:
skyvern browser screenshot # visual check
skyvern browser validate --prompt "Was the form submitted successfully?" # boolean assertion
skyvern browser evaluate --expression "document.title" # JS state check| Problem | Fix |
|---|---|
| Action clicked wrong element | Add context to prompt. Use hybrid mode (selector + intent). |
| Extraction returns empty | Wait for content. Relax required fields. Check row count first. |
| Login passes but next step fails | Ensure same session. Add post-login validate check. |
| Element not found | Add wait: skyvern browser wait --selector "#el" --state visible |
| Overloaded prompt | Split into smaller goals -- one intent per command. |
NEVER type passwords through skyvern browser type or act. Always use stored credentials:
skyvern credentials add --name "my-login" --type password --username "user@co.com"
skyvern credential list # find the credential ID
skyvern browser login --url "https://login.example.com" --credential-id cred_123Types: password, credit_card, secret. Also supports bitwarden, 1password, and azure_vault providers.
skyvern workflow create --definition @workflow.yaml # create
skyvern workflow run --id wpid_123 --wait # run and wait
skyvern workflow status --run-id wr_789 # check status
skyvern workflow list --search "invoice" # find workflows
skyvern block schema --type navigation # discover block types
skyvern block validate --block-json @block.json # validate before creatingEngine: known path = 1.0 (default). Dynamic planning = 2.0. Split into multiple 1.0 blocks when in doubt.
