SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes scripts (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

The chrome-cdp skill enables programmatic interaction with the user's Chromium-based browser via the Chrome DevTools Protocol (CDP) through a fixed install path, avoiding Puppeteer dependency while allowing direct control.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Fixed-path CDP CLI: Connect to live browser sessions and multiplex commands across tabs via a single master daemon.
  • Page inspection and interaction: List pages, navigate, capture screenshots, and run simple script evaluations in real browser contexts.
  • Safe, user-driven execution: Start interactions only after user consent, with guardrails to prevent unsafe actions.

Quick Start

Run the chrome-cdp CLI against a running browser using the fixed install path and observe basic interactions with a target page.

What browsers support CDP multiplexing for automated browser workflows?▼

CDP multiplexing for automated browser workflows supports Chromium-based browsers, specifically including Chrome, Chromium, Brave, Edge, Arc, and Dia, allowing direct inspection and data capture across multiple open tabs.

Can I run script evaluations and capture screenshots in a real browser context using CDP?▼

Yes, you can run script evaluations and capture screenshots in a real browser context using CDP by connecting a Bun-backed CLI to active browser sessions to interact with and inspect live target pages.

Do I need a specific runtime environment to use a Bun-based CDP CLI for browser automation?▼

To use this Bun-based CDP CLI for browser automation, you need the Bun runtime environment installed and a running Chromium-based browser, allowing direct DevTools Protocol interaction through a fixed install path.

What is the best way to manage multiple CDP sessions safely during automated QA?▼
