agent-browser
Browser automation CLI for AI agents. Requires Node.js with agent-browser. Use when the user needs to interact with websites, including navigating pages, filling forms, clicking buttons, taking screenshots, extracting data, testing web apps, or automating any browser task. Triggers include requests to "open a website", "fill out a form", "click a button", "take a screenshot", "scrape data from a page", "test this web app", "login to a site", "automate browser actions", or any task requiring programmatic web interaction.
npx skills add EXboys/evotown --skill agent-browser --agent claude-code
Same command for any agent — swap --agent for codex, cursor, copilot.
Weekly change comes from our own snapshots, not the repository page — it measures attention, not adoption.
# Browser Automation with agent-browser ## Core Workflow Every browser automation follows this pattern: 1. **Navigate**: `agent-browser open <url>` 2. **Snapshot**: `agent-browser snapshot -i` (get element refs like `@e1`, `@e2`) 3. **Interact**: Use refs to click, fill, select 4. **Re-snapshot**: After navigation or DOM changes, get fresh refs ```bash agent-browser open https://example.com/form agent-browser snapshot -i # Output: @e1 [input type="email"], @e2 [input type="password"], @e3 [button] "Submit" agent-browser fill @e1 "user@example.com" agent-browser fill @e2 "password123" agent-browser click @e3 agent-browser wait --load networkidle agent-browser snapshot -i # Check result ``` ## Essential Commands ```bash # Navigation agent-browser open <url> # Navigate (aliases: goto, navigate) agent-browser close # Close browser # Snapshot agent-browser snapshot -i # Interactive elements with refs (recommended) agent-browser snapshot -i -C # Include cursor-interactive elements (divs with onclick, cursor:pointer) agent-browser snapshot -s "#selector" # Scope to CSS selector # Interaction (use @refs from snapshot) agent-browser click @e1 # Click element agent-browser fill @e2 "text" #

How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add EXboys/evotown --skill agent-browser --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.
Where does this skill come from?
From EXboys/evotown, a repository with 659 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
