Playwright MCP Automation

Overview

Use this skill whenever an agent must drive a real browser session via the Playwright MCP server. It covers standing up the MCP daemon, wiring it into your MCP client, and running reliable automation loops (login → navigate → act → verify). Pair these instructions with the upstream repo (https://github.com/microsoft/playwright-mcp) for the latest binaries.
