Agent Browser Skill

Description

Enhanced browser automation for OpenClaw agents with advanced navigation, screenshot, and interaction capabilities.

When to Use

Use this skill when:

  • Automating web browsing tasks
  • Taking screenshots of web pages
  • Filling forms and clicking buttons
  • Extracting data from websites
  • Testing web applications
  • Navigating complex web flows

Prerequisites

  • OpenClaw browser tool must be enabled
  • Chrome or Chromium browser installed
  • Internet connection for web access

Examples

Basic Navigation

# Navigate to a website
openclaw browser open --url "https://example.com"

# Take a screenshot
openclaw browser snapshot --url "https://example.com" --output screenshot.png

Form Interaction

# Fill a form
openclaw browser act --url "https://forms.example.com" --kind fill --fields '{"name": "John", "email": "john@example.com"}'

# Click a button
openclaw browser act --url "https://example.com" --kind click --selector "button.submit"

Data Extraction

# Extract page content
openclaw browser snapshot --url "https://news.example.com" --maxChars 5000

# Monitor page changes
openclaw browser act --url "https://status.example.com" --kind wait --textGone "Loading..."

Integration with OpenClaw

This skill enhances the native OpenClaw browser tool with:

  1. Simplified commands - Easier syntax for common tasks
  2. Error handling - Better recovery from failures
  3. Performance optimization - Faster page loads and interactions
  4. Accessibility support - Better element detection

Safety Notes

  • Only automate public websites
  • Respect robots.txt and terms of service
  • Avoid excessive requests to prevent IP blocking
  • Use delays between actions to mimic human behavior

Troubleshooting

Common Issues

  1. Browser not starting: Check if Chrome is installed
  2. Element not found: Try different selectors or wait for page load
  3. Timeout errors: Increase timeout values for slow pages
  4. Permission denied: Ensure OpenClaw has necessary permissions

Debug Tips

# Enable verbose logging
openclaw browser open --url "https://example.com" --verbose

# Check browser status
openclaw browser status
