Use when controlling web pages with the OpenClaw browser tool, especially multi-step flows, login checks, tab management, or recovery from stale refs/timeouts.
npx skills add Health-Yang/MineEcho --skill browser-automation --agent claude-code
Same command for any agent — swap --agent for codex, cursor, copilot.

# Browser Automation Use this skill when you need the `browser` tool for anything beyond a single page check. ## Operating Loop 1. Check browser state before acting: - `openclaw browser doctor` or `action="status"` when the browser/plugin setup itself may be broken. - `action="status"` for availability. - `action="profiles"` if login state or profile choice matters. - `action="tabs"` before opening a new tab if retries/timeouts may have left windows behind. 2. Prefer stable tab handles: - Open important tabs with `label`, for example `label="meet"`. - Use `tabId` handles like `t1` or labels like `meet` as `targetId` in later calls. - Avoid relying on raw DevTools `targetId` unless the tool just returned it. 3. Read before you click: - Use `action="snapshot"` on the intended `targetId`. - Use the same `targetId` for follow-up actions so refs stay on the same tab. - For durable Playwright refs, request `refs="aria"` when supported. If you receive `axN` refs from `snapshotFormat="aria"`, use them only after that same snapshot call; stale or unbound `axN` refs fail fast and need a fresh snapshot. - Use `urls=true` when link text is ambiguous or a direct navigation target would avoid br

How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add Health-Yang/MineEcho --skill browser-automation --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 Health-Yang/MineEcho, a repository with 248 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.
