skillify

To save a browser scrape as a reusable automation script, the skillify tool codifies your most recent successful scrape flow into a permanent browser-skill on disk. It synthesizes the script, test, and fixture files, runs a test in a temporary directory, and asks for confirmation before committing.

Codifying a scrape workflow improves browser automation speed by converting the interaction into a permanent script. Future scrape calls with the same intent execute the codified script directly in approximately 200ms, bypassing the need to re-drive the web page from scratch.

A permanent browser-skill is a codified, reusable automation script generated from a successful web scrape. You need it when you want to repeat the same data extraction intent instantly without re-driving the page, transforming a one-time scrape into durable workflow automation.

Yes, saving a scrape to disk requires running tests before committing. The skill generates a script, test file, and fixture, then executes the test in a temporary directory to validate the automation before prompting you for final confirmation to commit.

Yes, you can turn a one-time web scrape into a permanent workflow without manual coding by using the skillify command. It walks back through your conversation history, automatically synthesizes the TypeScript script and test files, and commits the validated browser-skill to disk.

The main limitation of reusing a codified browser scrape script is that it only executes future scrape calls with the exact same intent. If the target page structure changes or the scraping intent differs, the codified script will not apply and the page must be re-driven.
