Playwright CLI

Use this skill when terminal-driven browser automation is the fastest path.

Assumptions

• A local playwright-cli installation is available.
• If command names differ by version, inspect local help output before assuming an exact subcommand shape.

Operating Rules

1. Snapshot or inspect the page before interacting with referenced elements.
2. Prefer deterministic session naming for parallel or long-running work.
3. Save and restore auth state deliberately when login is expensive.
4. Capture traces before reproducing a failure, not after.
5. Drop into custom code only when the built-in command surface is not enough.
