What problem does it solve?

This Skill removes the friction of manually wiring browser automation into Claude Code by setting up a Playwright MCP server that Claude can use for real web interaction.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Prerequisite Verification: Checks that Node.js and npx are available before attempting installation.
  • MCP Configuration: Adds or merges the Playwright server entry into .mcp.json without overwriting other servers.
  • Machine-Safe Setup: Ensures .mcp.json is ignored by Git so local server configuration stays private.
  • Health Validation: Runs a doctor check to confirm the server is reachable and exposes its tools.
  • Use Case: Use it when you want Claude Code to open a website, click through a flow, fill a form, or capture browser screenshots for testing and automation.

Quick Start

Ask Claude Code to install Playwright MCP, verify the required tools, update the project configuration, and confirm the server is working.
