# Skyvern Browser Automation -- CLI Judgment Procedure Skyvern uses AI to navigate and interact with websites. Every command below is a runnable `skyvern <command>` invocation. ## When to Use This Skill - Use when you need AI-assisted browser automation for navigation, extraction, form filling, login flows, or reusable website workflows. - Use when deterministic selectors are unavailable and Skyvern's visual/a11y reasoning can identify page controls. - Use when a one-off browser task should become a repeatable workflow with run history and verification. ## Step 1: Classify Your Task (ALWAYS do this first) | Classification | Signal | CLI Command | Cost | What Happens | |---|---|---|---|---| | Quick check (yes/no) | "is the user logged in?" | `skyvern browser validate` | 1 LLM + screenshots | Lightweight validation (2 steps max), returns boolean. Cheapest AI option. | | Quick inspection | "what does the page show?" | `skyvern browser extract` | 1 LLM + screenshots | Dedicated extraction LLM + schema validation + caching. | | Single action (known target) | "click #submit" | `skyvern browser click/type` | 0 LLM | Deterministic Playwright. No AI. Fastest. | | Single action (unknown targ

From majiayu000/claude-skill-registry, a repository with 534 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.

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.
