## Description

This repository is a collection of installable browser automation skills and plugins for AI coding agents such as Claude Code. Once installed, whether through a plugin marketplace or a single command, each agent can drive real web browsers from the command line for navigation, testing, scraping, and research. Browsers can be remote cloud sessions with CAPTCHA solving, residential proxies, and a persistent identity, or local ones: either a clean isolated browser or an already running browser whose cookies and login state are reused.

Beyond basic browsing, the skills cover several specialized workflows. Agents can act inside signed-in sessions without asking for credentials, and cookies can be synced from a local profile into a persistent cloud browser context. Captured browser traces can be analyzed to produce a best-effort OpenAPI 3.1 description of a site's endpoints, and site-specific tools can be authored from a site's routes, forms, and actions. Other skills improve agent prompts and browsing tasks through repeated runs, trace analysis, scoring, and unchanged confirmation runs. Further skills let AI exercise a locally running web app to find bugs and apply fixes, test UI changes adversarially, and audit how friendly a product or docs site is to agents.

The wider surface includes fetching static pages and searching the web without starting a browser, summarizing pages, and researching companies, prospects, and competitors into reports. Cloud tooling covers listing projects as JSON, deploying and scaffolding serverless browser functions, and migrating Python automation to TypeScript. Browser traces can be recorded and split into per-page groups for debugging. Agents can also be limited to allowlisted domains or to a scraper's main site.
