SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes scripts (resource) and references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

gstack provides a persistent, CLI-driven browser automation layer that lets AI agents control a headless Chromium for reliable QA testing and bug reproduction.

Core Features & Use Cases

Persistent browser daemon: keeps cookies, sessions, and state across commands to enable realistic, multi-step interactions.
Browser commands: navigate, read, interact, and export diffs and annotated screenshots to verify changes.
Use cases: run end-to-end QA tests on staging pages, capture bug evidence, and dogfood user flows with automated checks.

Quick Start

Run the gstack browse CLI to start the headless browser and begin QA testing.

FAQPage Schema

How do I automate headless browser QA testing with a persistent session?▼

Automate headless browser QA testing using a persistent Chromium daemon that retains cookies and state across CLI commands, enabling reliable multi-step interactions for modern web apps.

Can I capture annotated screenshots during bug reproduction with a headless browser?▼

Yes, you can capture annotated screenshots during bug reproduction. The browser commands support navigation, content extraction, and visual exports to verify changes and capture bug evidence.

Do I need Bun and Playwright to run the headless Chromium server?▼

Yes, you need Bun and Playwright. The Skill requires a Bun/Playwright-based server alongside a token-authenticated HTTP API to manage the headless Chromium daemon and ensure repeatable browser interactions.

How does a CLI control plane manage browser automation for end-to-end tests?▼

A CLI control plane manages browser automation by sending commands to a persistent headless daemon. This architecture allows you to navigate, read, and interact with staging pages for automated end-to-end checks.

What is the best way to maintain state across multiple browser automation commands?▼

The best way to maintain state is using a persistent browser daemon. It keeps sessions and cookies active across multiple commands, ensuring realistic and continuous interactions without resetting the context.

Why use a persistent headless daemon instead of standard browser automation for design reviews?▼

A persistent headless daemon maintains session continuity for design reviews, overcoming standard automation limitations. It allows you to dogfood user flows and export visual diffs across multi-step interactions reliably.
