Browser automation CLI for AI agents. NEVER run browser-act commands directly via Bash — always invoke this skill first. Use browser-act when a user mentions...
Security Analysis
medium confidenceThis is a disclosed browser automation skill, but its activation rules are broad enough that it could steer agents into using a powerful browser/session tool for ordinary web tasks.
The stated purpose is browser automation, and the disclosed capabilities include navigation, extraction, screenshots, form automation, authenticated sessions, network capture, and verification assistance.
The description tells agents to prefer browser-act over built-in fetch or web tools and to use it for broad fetch/view/extract tasks, which is over-scoped for a tool that can interact with authenticated browser sessions and perform state-changing workflows.
The artifact contains only SKILL.md and instructs installation of an external PyPI CLI via uv; no executable scripts are bundled in the skill artifact.
Network access, local browser profile storage, logs, and optional CDP access are coherent with browser automation, but they are high-impact capabilities users should understand.
The skill discloses local browser profiles and rotated session logs, and claims confirmation gates for browser creation and sensitive operations; no hidden persistence or privilege escalation appears in the artifact.
Guidance
Install only if you want an agent to use the browser-act CLI as a primary browser automation path. Review when it will be invoked, keep confirmation prompts enabled for login, form submission, file upload, browser creation, and deletion, and prefer simpler read-only web tools for ordinary page fetching unless browser rendering or session automation is actually needed.
