Skill instructions
Agent Browser Use a controlled browser to verify behavior, capture evidence, or extract information from web pages that a static fetch cannot reach (SPAs, login-gated pages, dynamic content). This skill is about supervised verification, not unattended scraping. When to use - You need a screenshot of a deployed page or a local dev server to confirm a UI change. - You need to read JavaScript-rendered content that curl/wget will not see. - A user reports a UI bug and you need to reproduce it interactively to capture console errors, network requests, or layout state. - You need to walk through a short flow (load page, click, observe) to verify acceptance criteria. When not to use - The page is reachable as static HTML. Use curl/HTTP fetch — it is cheaper, faster, and more reliable. - The task is unattended large-scale scraping. That belongs to a dedicated scraper with rate limits, robots.txt handling, and a real user agent policy — not this skill. - The site is behind authentication you do
