name: browser-automation description: "Control remote Chrome browser via CDP for tab management, navigation, screenshots, and automation. Use when: (1) Finding existing browser tabs by domain without creating duplicates, (2) Navigating to specific URLs in existing or new tabs, (3) Taking screenshots of web pages, (4) Automating browser interactions, (5) Managing multiple browser contexts and pages."

Browser Automation Skill

Control remote Chrome browser via Chrome DevTools Protocol (CDP) for reliable tab management and automation.

Core Features

No duplicate tabs: Always finds existing tabs by domain
Domain-based search: Match tabs by domain (handles x.com/twitter.com variations)
Automatic navigation: Opens target URL in found or created tab
CDP integration: Returns tab ID and WebSocket URL for direct control
Cross-context search: Checks ALL browser contexts, not just the first

Prerequisites

Chrome running with remote debug port (e.g., --remote-debugging-port=9222)
CDP endpoint accessible (e.g., http://10.0.9.105:9222)
Python 3.8+ with playwright installed

Quick Start

import sys
sys.path.insert(0, '<skill-path>/scripts')
from browser_tools import find_or_create_tab

async def example():
    # Find tab with domain "x.com" and navigate to URL
    page, browser, p, is_new, cdp_id, ws_url = await find_or_create_tab(
        "x.com",                           # Domain to search for
        "https://x.com/oraclesrun"         # URL to open in the tab
    )
    
    # is_new = False if reused existing tab, True if created new
    # cdp_id = Chrome DevTools tab ID
    # ws_url = WebSocket URL for direct CDP connection
    
    await page.screenshot(path="/tmp/screenshot.png")
    
    # Close connection, keep tab open
    await browser.close()
    await p.stop()

Main Functions

find_or_create_tab(domain, target_url=None)

Find existing tab by domain or create new one, then navigate to target_url.

Parameters:

domain (str): Domain to search for (e.g., "x.com", "github.com")
target_url (str, optional): URL to navigate to in the tab

Returns: (page, browser, playwright, is_new, cdp_id, ws_url)

page: Playwright page object
browser: Playwright browser object
p: Playwright instance
is_new: Boolean (False=reused existing, True=created new)
cdp_id: Chrome DevTools tab ID
ws_url: WebSocket debugger URL

Example:

# Find x.com tab, navigate to specific profile
page, browser, p, is_new, cdp_id, ws_url = await find_or_create_tab(
    "x.com",
    "https://x.com/elonmusk"
)

if is_new:
    print(f"Created new tab: {cdp_id}")
else:
    print(f"Reused existing tab: {cdp_id}")

list_tabs()

List all open tabs across ALL browser contexts with CDP information.

Returns: List of dicts with keys:

index: Tab index
context: Context index
cdp_id: Chrome DevTools tab ID
websocket_url: WebSocket debugger URL
url: Tab URL
domain: Extracted domain
title: Page title

Example:

tabs = await list_tabs()
for tab in tabs:
    print(f"{tab['cdp_id']}: {tab['url']}")

Domain Matching

The skill handles domain variations automatically:

| Search Domain | Matches URLs | |--------------|-------------| | x.com | x.com, twitter.com | | twitter.com | twitter.com, x.com | | github.com | github.com only |

Command Line Usage

# List all tabs
python3 browser_tools.py list_tabs

# Find or create tab
python3 browser_tools.py find_or_create_tab <domain> [url]

# Examples:
python3 browser_tools.py find_or_create_tab x.com https://x.com/home
python3 browser_tools.py find_or_create_tab github.com

Best Practices

Always check is_new

page, browser, p, is_new, cdp_id, ws_url = await find_or_create_tab("x.com")

if is_new:
    print("WARNING: Created new tab - check for duplicates!")

Never close tabs, only connections

# Correct: Close browser connection, keep tab
await browser.close()
await p.stop()

# Wrong: Don't close the page/tab
# await page.close()  # ❌ Don't do this

Work without focus

The skill operates in background via CDP - no need to bring browser window to front.

Configuration

Edit browser_tools.py to change CDP endpoint:

CDP_URL = "http://10.0.9.105:9222"  # Change to your Chrome debug URL

Troubleshooting

Duplicate tabs created

Check version: browser_tools.__version__ should be 1.0.4+
Verify CDP endpoint is correct
Check Chrome is running with remote debugging enabled

Connection refused

Verify Chrome is running with --remote-debugging-port=9222
Check firewall rules for CDP port
Ensure CDP_URL matches your Chrome debug endpoint

Page operations timeout

Some operations (screenshots) may timeout on heavy pages
Use page.wait_for_load_state() before operations
Consider networkidle or domcontentloaded states

Version History

1.0.4: Fixed navigation - now opens target_url in found tabs
1.0.3: Added CDP ID and WebSocket URL in output
1.0.2: Fixed tab search across ALL contexts
1.0.1: Added x.com/twitter.com domain matching
1.0.0: Initial release
