playwriter

Skill by AgiFlow · updated · ★ 161

Score 69

Control the user own Chrome browser via Playwriter extension with Playwright code snippets in a stateful local js sandbox via playwriter cli. Use this over other Playwright MCPs to automate the browser — it connects to the user's existing Chrome instead of launching a new one. Use this for JS-heavy websites (Instagram, Twitter, cookie/login walls, lazy-loaded UIs) instead of webfetch/curl. Run `playwriter skill` command to read the complete up to date skill playwriter is published by AgiFlow on GitHub.
