Description
Browser automation via Playwright MCP server. Navigate websites, click elements, fill forms, extract data, take screenshots, and perform full browser automation workflows.
Usage Guidance
Install only if you trust the package source and are comfortable running npm/Playwright tooling locally. Use it on trusted sites, avoid entering secrets unless needed, review before submitting forms or uploading files, and handle screenshots, traces, and videos as potentially sensitive.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill
Name: playwright-mcp
Version: 1.0.0
The OpenClaw AgentSkills skill bundle for 'playwright-mcp' is classified as benign. The `SKILL.md` file provides clear documentation for browser automation using Playwright MCP, including installation instructions and usage examples, without any evidence of prompt injection attempts or instructions for malicious actions. It even highlights built-in security features like host validation and restricted file system access. The `examples.py` script is a conceptual demonstration of the skill's usage and does not perform any actual harmful operations, using `example.com` as a placeholder and explicitly stating its conceptual nature. There is no indication of data exfiltration, persistence, or other malicious intent across any of the files.
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
Browser navigation, form interaction, screenshots, extraction, and MCP server use align with the stated Playwright MCP automation purpose.
Instruction Scope
The instructions describe powerful browser actions; these are purpose-aligned, but users should treat logins, uploads, submissions, screenshots, traces, and JavaScript evaluation as user-directed actions on real sites.
Install Mechanism
The skill uses npm/npx and Playwright installation commands, which is normal for this integration but executes external package code from the Node package supply chain.
Credentials
The described browser automation environment and mentioned host/file-system restrictions are proportionate to the skill's purpose.
Persistence & Privilege
No artifact-backed evidence shows hidden persistence, credential harvesting, background workers, destructive actions, or exfiltration.
How to Use
- Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
- Run the install command in chat:
/install playwright-mcp - After installation, invoke the skill by name or use
/playwright-mcp - Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
