SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill enables programmatic control of a Chrome browser using the Playwriter extension and Playwright code snippets inside a local, stateful sandbox to automate web interactions, capture results, and debug applications.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Browser automation: Execute scripted actions, navigate pages, fill inputs, and interact with web apps.
  • Testing & debugging aids: Take screenshots and generate accessibility snapshots to inspect UI and behavior.
  • Reusable code snippets: Run and reuse Playwright-based commands within a contained sandbox for rapid iteration.

Quick Start

playwriter session new playwriter -s 1 -e "await page.goto('https://example.com')" playwriter -s 1 -e "console.log(await accessibilitySnapshot({ page }))" playwriter -s 1 -e "await page.screenshot({ path: 'shot.png', scale: 'css' })" If playwriter is not found, use npx playwriter@latest or bunx playwriter@latest.
