Usage Guidance
This skill will install Playwright/Chromium (potentially by running get-pip.py and pip), run system package installs, disable Chromium's sandbox flags, probe system files, and then automatically click and submit everything it finds on the target site. Those actions can be destructive (create/delete data, send emails, trigger payments) and weaken process isolation (no-sandbox). Only run this on an isolated test or staging environment you control. Before running: (1) set BASE_URL to a safe test target, (2) review and optionally run the Phase 0 commands manually to inspect environment, (3) consider running inside a disposable Docker container or VM with limited network access and snapshots, (4) do not run against production systems with real data/credentials, and (5) ensure you have backups and approval for any automated actions. If you need safer behavior, request a dry-run mode, a whitelist of paths, or confirmation prompts before submissions/clicks.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill
Name: qa-browser-tester
Version: 1.0.0
The skill is a comprehensive QA automation tool that uses Playwright to perform end-to-end testing of web applications. It includes detailed environment discovery (OS, Docker status, package managers) and automated installation of dependencies (Playwright, Chromium) in SKILL.md. The provided Python script in references/test-phases.md performs site crawling, form testing, user journey simulation, and basic security checks (unauthenticated access to common protected routes). All actions, including the extensive environment checks and software installation, are transparently documented and directly support the stated purpose of ensuring a functional browser environment on various Linux and Docker configurations. No malicious intent or unauthorized data exfiltration was detected.
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
The name/description (exhaustive headless-browser QA) aligns with the instructions: environment detection, installing Playwright/Chromium, and an automated test script. Requiring system package installs and probing the runtime environment (which package manager exists, memory, whether inside Docker) is reasonable for this purpose. However, some instructions (e.g., insistence on specific --no-sandbox flags) reduce process isolation and should be considered risky even if justified for Docker/root scenarios.
Instruction Scope
SKILL.md explicitly instructs the agent to run many system commands (apt/apk/curl/get-pip, pip installs), to cat system files (/etc/os-release, /proc/1/cgroup), to print whoami/id, and to report 'ALL output' before proceeding. The test script will click every button and submit every form automatically (including empty/invalid/filled submissions) which can trigger destructive actions (create accounts, send emails, perform deletes or payments) and has no explicit safeguards (dry-run mode, confirmation prompts, whitelist/blacklist, safe HTTP methods, or detection of destructive buttons). Collecting and printing local environment details combined with network installs and automated form submissions increases the chance of unintended or dangerous side effects.
Install Mechanism
This is an instruction-only skill (no bundled install), but the runtime instructions direct the agent to install pip (via get-pip.py if needed), pip-install Playwright, and invoke playwright's Chromium installer which downloads large browser binaries from upstream hosts. Those network downloads and package installs will write to the system and may require root. While expected for browser automation, this is higher-risk than an instruction-only skill that only calls existing, preinstalled tools.
Credentials
The skill does not request credentials or environment variables, which is good. It does, however, instruct reading system files and printing identity information (whoami, id) and system state; these actions are reasonable for environment detection but they expose local system details. The skill's operations (installing packages, running browsers with sandbox disabled) can affect the host and are disproportionate if the user expected a lightweight check.
Persistence & Privilege
The skill is not permanently installed, doesn't declare always:true, and is user-invocable only. It does not request to modify other skills or system-wide agent settings in the provided instructions.
How to Use
