Step-by-step migration guides for moving to Playwright from Cypress or Selenium/WebDriver — command mappings, architecture changes, and incremental adoption strategies.

  • Tasks that involve End-to-end testing

What it does

Playwright Migration is an agent skill from zebbern/claude-code-guide. Step-by-step migration guides for moving to Playwright from Cypress or Selenium/WebDriver — command mappings, architecture changes, and incremental adoption strategies.

Its SKILL.md is about 190 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 2 other files (for example `from-cypress.md` and `from-selenium.md`).

It sits in Testing & QA, covering Browser testing, Code migrations and End-to-end testing. It works with Playwright, Selenium and Cypress. The repository describes itself as: Claude Code Guide - Setup, Commands, workflows, agents, skills & tips-n-tricks from beginner to power user! The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Tasks that involve Browser testing
  • Tasks that involve Code migrations
  • Tasks that involve End-to-end testing

Example prompts

  • “/playwright-migration”

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 4698e3b. 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

Playwright Migration loads about 187 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 47 tokens; SKILL.md has 39 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~47
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~187

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.
