Browser Automation Skill

Web browser automation using agent-browser with AI-optimized snapshots. Reduces context by 93% using element refs (@e1, @e2) instead of full DOM.

Core Workflow

# 1. Navigate to page
agent-browser open <url>

# 2. Get accessibility tree with element refs
agent-browser snapshot -i    # -i = interactive elements only

# 3. Interact using refs from snapshot
agent-browser click @e2
agent-browser fill @e3 "text"

# 4. Re-snapshot after page changes
agent-browser snapshot -i

Quick Reference

Navigation

CommandDescription
open <url>Navigate to URL
backGo back
forwardGo forward
reloadReload page
closeClose browser

Snapshots (AI-Optimized)

CommandDescription
snapshotFull accessibility tree
snapshot -iInteractive elements only (buttons, links, inputs)
snapshot -cCompact (remove empty elements)
snapshot -d 3Limit depth to 3 levels
screenshot [path]Capture screenshot (base64 if no path)

Interaction

CommandDescription
click <sel>Click element
fill <sel> <text>Clear and fill input
type <sel> <text>Type with key events
press <key>Press key (Enter, Tab, etc.)
hover <sel>Hover element
select <sel> <val>Select dropdown option
check/uncheck <sel>Toggle checkbox
scroll <dir> [px]Scroll page

Get Info

CommandDescription
get text <sel>Get text content
get html <sel>Get innerHTML
get value <sel>Get input value
get attr <sel> <attr>Get attribute
get titleGet page title
get urlGet current URL

Wait

CommandDescription
wait <selector>Wait for element
wait <ms>Wait milliseconds
wait --text "text"Wait for text
wait --url "pattern"Wait for URL
wait --load networkidleWait for load state

Sessions

CommandDescription
--session <name>Use isolated session
session listList active sessions

Selectors

Element Refs (Recommended)

# Get refs from snapshot
agent-browser snapshot -i
# Output: button "Submit" [ref=e2]

# Use ref to interact
agent-browser click @e2

CSS Selectors

agent-browser click "#submit"
agent-browser fill ".email-input" "test@test.com"

Semantic Locators

agent-browser find role button click --name "Submit"
agent-browser find label "Email" fill "test@test.com"
agent-browser find testid "login-btn" click

Examples

Login Flow

agent-browser open https://example.com/login
agent-browser snapshot -i
agent-browser fill @e2 "user@example.com"
agent-browser fill @e3 "password123"
agent-browser click @e4
agent-browser wait --url "**/dashboard"

Form Submission

agent-browser open https://example.com/contact
agent-browser snapshot -i
agent-browser fill @e1 "John Doe"
agent-browser fill @e2 "john@example.com"
agent-browser fill @e3 "Hello, this is my message"
agent-browser click @e4
agent-browser wait --text "Thank you"

Data Extraction

agent-browser open https://example.com/products
agent-browser snapshot -i
# Iterate through product refs
agent-browser get text @e1  # Product name
agent-browser get text @e2  # Price
agent-browser get attr @e3 href  # Link

Multi-Session (Swarm)

# Session 1: Navigator
agent-browser --session nav open https://example.com
agent-browser --session nav state save auth.json

# Session 2: Scraper (uses same auth)
agent-browser --session scrape state load auth.json
agent-browser --session scrape open https://example.com/data
agent-browser --session scrape snapshot -i

Integration with Claude Flow

MCP Tools

All browser operations are available as MCP tools with browser/ prefix:

  • browser/open
  • browser/snapshot
  • browser/click
  • browser/fill
  • browser/screenshot
  • etc.

Memory Integration

# Store successful patterns
npx @claude-flow/cli memory store --namespace browser-patterns --key "login-flow" --value "snapshot->fill->click->wait"

# Retrieve before similar task
npx @claude-flow/cli memory search --query "login automation"

Hooks

# Pre-browse hook (get context)
npx @claude-flow/cli hooks pre-edit --file "browser-task.ts"

# Post-browse hook (record success)
npx @claude-flow/cli hooks post-task --task-id "browse-1" --success true

Tips

  1. Always use snapshots - They're optimized for AI with refs
  2. Prefer -i flag - Gets only interactive elements, smaller output
  3. Use refs, not selectors - More reliable, deterministic
  4. Re-snapshot after navigation - Page state changes
  5. Use sessions for parallel work - Each session is isolated
