go-playwright
Build Reliable Browser Automation in Go
Dynamic websites are difficult to test and automate reliably with basic HTTP tools. This skill guides Playwright Go architecture, logging, cleanup, timeouts, and browser interactions.

Install with my Agent
Copy this request to your Agent. It includes the canonical Skill page and manifest.
Review the Skillstore skill "go-playwright" from https://skillstore.io/skills/sickn33-go-playwright.md and its manifest at https://skillstore.io/api/skills/sickn33-go-playwright/manifest. Verify the artifact. Stop and obtain explicit user consent before installing or changing files.Your Agent should still show its plan and request any confirmation required by the security policy.

Test it
Using "go-playwright". Create a browser test for a dashboard login and page heading.
Expected outcome:
A Go test outline that launches Chromium, creates an isolated context, performs the login, checks the heading, logs failures, and closes resources.
Using "go-playwright". Improve a script that opens a new browser for every task.
Expected outcome:
A refactoring plan that keeps one browser, creates a context per task, limits concurrency, and centralizes cleanup and error reporting.
Using "go-playwright". Diagnose intermittent click failures in a Playwright Go workflow.
Expected outcome:
A review identifying selector readiness, explicit timeout, visibility, logging, and debug-mode checks, followed by targeted correction steps.
Security Audit
High RiskMost static alerts are parser artifacts caused by Go import blocks, Markdown code spans, documentation links, and browser configuration values. The dependency setup command is a confirmed medium risk because it runs an unpinned remote Go package and installs system dependencies. The main concern is explicit guidance for bypassing anti-bot controls through stealth and human-emulation techniques.

Skillstore Score
Why this score Evidence Confidence: MediumWhat You Can Build
Test Dynamic Web Applications
Create repeatable browser tests for navigation, forms, and JavaScript-rendered interfaces.
Automate Internal Browser Workflows
Build authorized browser tasks with isolated sessions, structured logs, and reliable cleanup.
Debug Playwright Go Scripts
Review failing automation and add visible execution, timeouts, error handling, and diagnostics.
Try These Prompts
Create a Playwright Go test for [URL] that verifies [expected result]. Use explicit timeouts and close all resources.
Update this Playwright Go workflow to use Zap logging for navigation, clicks, failures, and cleanup: [workflow].
Design a Playwright Go service for [session count] isolated sessions using one browser. Include lifecycle management, limits, and error handling.
Audit this authorized Playwright Go workflow: [workflow]. Address timeouts, retries, logging privacy, session isolation, dependency pinning, and graceful shutdown.
Best Practices
- Use one browser with separate contexts for independent sessions.
- Set explicit timeouts and close pages, contexts, browsers, and Playwright.
- Pin dependencies and protect credentials, cookies, and form values in logs.
Avoid
- Do not launch a new browser process for every small task.
- Do not ignore Playwright errors or depend only on default timeouts.
- Do not use stealth techniques to bypass access controls or site policies.
