mcp-playwright
MCP Skill: Playwright MCP (UI Verification)
Scope
Use the MCP server configured as microsoft/playwright-mcp in .vscode/mcp.json to run browser automation tasks (navigation, screenshots, DOM checks) during debugging and validation.
Preconditions
- Ensure
.vscode/mcp.jsoncontainsmicrosoft/playwright-mcp. - Ensure the app is running (typically
pnpm run start) if you are testing locally.
Operating Rules
- Prefer resilient selectors:
data-testid, ARIA roles/labels. - Avoid brittle CSS selectors and deep DOM coupling.
- Capture evidence for regressions: screenshots + console errors.
Typical Workflows
- Smoke check a route
- Navigate to a URL and assert primary heading/landmark is visible.
