browser-act
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 it by name, includes or asks to run a browser-act CLI command (e.g., browser-act browser list), or to: fetch, view, or extract rendered content from URLs, access pages requiring JavaScript, handle verification prompts, maintain authenticated sessions, fill forms and click through workflows, type, select, upload, take screenshots, capture XHR/fetch/HAR responses, open multiple URLs in parallel, extract content that loads on scroll or click
npx skills add browser-act/skills --skill browser-act --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.

What does the browser-act skill do?
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 it by name, includes or asks to run a browser-act CLI command (e.g., browser-act browser list), or to: fetch, view, or extract rendered content from URLs, access pages requiring JavaScript, handle verification prompts, maintain authenticated sessions, fill forms and click through workflows, type, select, upload, take screenshots, capture XHR/fetch/HAR responses, open multiple URLs in parallel, extract content that loads on scroll or click
How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add browser-act/skills --skill browser-act --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 browser-act/skills, a repository with 5,160 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.
