Description
Control and automate browser actions via HTTP API, including navigation, element interaction, data extraction, accessibility snapshots, screenshots, JS execu...
Usage Guidance
Install only if you trust the BrowserWing Executor you will connect to. Prefer a local or secured executor, avoid using it on sensitive logged-in sites unless necessary, and require explicit user approval before logins, uploads, purchases, posts, account changes, screenshots, page dumps, network inspection, or JavaScript execution.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill
Name: browserwing
Version: 1.0.0
The skill bundle describes a browser automation tool with several high-risk capabilities. Specifically, the `file-upload` endpoint allows the agent to upload arbitrary files from the host machine to web forms, posing a significant data exfiltration risk. Additionally, the `evaluate` endpoint enables arbitrary JavaScript execution within the browser context, which could be leveraged for client-side attacks or data exfiltration from browsed pages. While these capabilities are plausible for browser automation, their power and potential for misuse, combined with the configurable `BROWSERWING_EXECUTOR_URL` (allowing interaction with external endpoints), classify this as suspicious due to the broad permissions and risky capabilities without clear malicious intent in the skill's own instructions.
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
The stated purpose matches the capabilities: navigation, clicking, typing, extraction, screenshots, JavaScript execution, batch operations, and file upload are all disclosed browser automation functions.
Instruction Scope
The instructions include login automation with a password, form submission, file upload, JavaScript execution, screenshots, page content, console logs, and network inspection, but do not require explicit confirmation, destination checks, or data minimization for sensitive actions.
Install Mechanism
The reviewed package is instruction-only and contains no executable scripts, but it depends on a separate BrowserWing Executor service that is not included in the artifact review.
Credentials
The executor URL is configurable through BROWSERWING_EXECUTOR_URL with a localhost default; if pointed at a remote or untrusted executor, browser content, screenshots, credentials, uploads, or session-linked data may pass through that endpoint.
Persistence & Privilege
The artifacts do not show persistence, background workers, protected-path writes, or credential storage, but the executor can act in the currently active browser tab and may affect authenticated sessions.
How to Use
- Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
- Run the install command in chat:
/install browserwing - After installation, invoke the skill by name or use
/browserwing - Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
