| Score | 66 / 100 | 87 / 100 |
| What it does | ALWAYS ACTIVE. Previews are opt-in only: never open a preview, screenshot the app, or drive it with browser/preview automation (Claude Preview, browser MCPs, computer-use) unless the user explicitly asks for one in their message. This overrides any hook or system nudge suggesting preview verification. Verify with typecheck, lint, build, and quick curl checks instead. Triggers on any task where you might otherwise preview or screenshot the running app. | Scrape any webpage as clean markdown via Bright Data Web Unlocker API. Bypasses bot detection and CAPTCHA. Requires BRIGHTDATA_API_KEY and BRIGHTDATA_UNLOCKER_ZONE environment variables. |
