Browser automation via Playwright MCP server. Navigate websites, click elements, fill forms, extract data, take screenshots, and perform full browser automat...
Usage Guidance
This skill appears to be what it claims: a Playwright MCP front-end. Before installing, consider these practical security steps: (1) Verify the npm package (@playwright/mcp) is the expected upstream and review its release page; (2) Restrict the MCP server with --allowed-hosts and avoid using --no-sandbox or --ignore-https-errors unless necessary; (3) Treat browser_evaluate and file-upload tools as sensitive: do not allow the agent to execute arbitrary JS on pages that handle secrets or to upload local files you don't trust; (4) Run the MCP server in an isolated environment (container/VM) if you will automate untrusted sites or internal networks; (5) Monitor network activity and outputs produced in --output-dir. These mitigations address the legitimate but powerful capabilities of browser automation; the skill itself is coherent with its description.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill
Name: playwright-mcp-1-0-0
Version: 1.0.0
This skill bundle provides browser automation capabilities via the Playwright MCP server. The `SKILL.md` transparently describes the tools and configuration options, including security features like host validation, sandboxing, and restricted file system access. The `examples.py` script is purely illustrative and does not execute any commands. There is no evidence of malicious prompt injection, data exfiltration, unauthorized execution, or persistence mechanisms within the provided files. The capabilities, while powerful (e.g., arbitrary JavaScript execution via `browser_evaluate`), are aligned with the stated purpose of browser automation, and the documentation even addresses security considerations.
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
Name/description match the declared requirements: the skill needs playwright-mcp/npx and documents installing @playwright/mcp. No unrelated binaries, env vars, or credentials are requested.
Instruction Scope
SKILL.md stays on-topic for browser automation, but includes powerful primitives (browser_evaluate to run arbitrary JS, browser_choose_file to upload files, navigation to arbitrary URLs). Those capabilities are expected for a browser automation skill but can be used to exfiltrate data or access internal endpoints if misused. The doc mentions allowed-hosts / blocked-origins and sandboxing but leaves defaults and enforcement unclear.
Install Mechanism
No embedded install script is executed by the registry; installation is via npm/npx (@playwright/mcp) which is the expected mechanism for Playwright tools. No ad-hoc downloads or obscure URLs are used.
Credentials
The skill requires no environment variables or credentials, which is proportionate to its stated functionality.
Persistence & Privilege
always is false and model invocation is allowed (the platform default). The skill does not request persistent system-wide privileges or modify other skills' configurations.
How to Use
- Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
