Click a button, link, or other page element by providing a CSS selector or matching text. First open the target page with `browser_navigate`, then use this skill to select the element to click.
Read text from the current webpage, either across the whole page or from an element selected with a CSS selector. Use it to check page information, retrieve displayed element values, extract text, or verify what a page contains.
See every open browser tab with its zero-based index, URL, and page title. This makes it easier to find a specific page, review what is open, or identify a tab before switching to it during browser work.
Open a web page at a specified URL and prepare the browser for later interaction. Use it before clicking page elements or typing into fields; the browser starts automatically if it is not already running.
Open a URL in a new browser tab while keeping the current page available. Use it to work across multiple pages without losing your place; the browser must already be running before the new tab can be opened.
