What problem does it solve?
Product Hunt launch submissions are often brittle to automate due to dynamic UI, anti-bot protections, and multi-step forms that resist simple selectors. This skill provides a reliable path to automate the submission workflow using safe selectors and step-wise navigation.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Robust multi-step navigation using the "Next step" buttons to progress through submission steps.
- Safe tag selection by evaluating the dropdown options and clicking the desired tag, avoiding brittle keyboard sequences.
- Text input handling with page.fill to preserve content order and prevent character scrambling.
- Gallery image upload support via setInputFiles with explicit waits, plus guidance for thumbnail uploads due to security constraints.
- Clear guidance for error scenarios (e.g., Cloudflare checks) and draft restoration.
