Agent Browser 0

ReviewAudited by ClawScan on May 10, 2026.

Overview

This skill is a coherent browser automation wrapper, but it gives agents access to browser sessions, cookies, storage, and real website actions with unclear safety boundaries.

Install only if you trust the upstream agent-browser package. Use a separate browser profile or test account, avoid sensitive sites unless necessary, and require explicit approval before credential entry, authenticated actions, uploads, or reading cookies/localStorage.

What this means

An agent using this skill could submit forms, click account controls, or upload chosen files on websites if directed or if it misinterprets a task.

Why it was flagged

The allowed tool is scoped to the agent-browser CLI, but that CLI can drive browser clicks, text entry, and selected file uploads. This is purpose-aligned, but users should understand it can take real web actions.

Skill content
allowed-tools: Bash(agent-browser:*) ... agent-browser click @e1 ... agent-browser fill @e2 "text" ... agent-browser upload @e1 file.pdf
Recommendation

Use it with explicit user confirmation for purchases, submissions, account changes, public posting, or uploads.

What this means

The agent may act as the signed-in user on websites, which could affect accounts or expose authenticated sessions.

Why it was flagged

The skill can use credentials and preserve session state, but the artifacts do not clearly define which browser profile/session is used or how authenticated actions should be constrained.

Skill content
agent-browser set credentials user pass   # HTTP basic auth ... Recording creates a fresh context but preserves cookies/storage from your session.
Recommendation

Use isolated browser profiles or test accounts, and require explicit approval before using credentials or authenticated sessions.

What this means

Sensitive browser data could be shown to the agent or included in task context, increasing the risk of accidental disclosure or reuse.

Why it was flagged

Cookies and localStorage can contain sensitive session or account data. The artifacts disclose access but do not bound what is read, where it is stored, or how it is reused across tasks.

Skill content
agent-browser cookies                     # Get all cookies ... agent-browser storage local               # Get all localStorage
Recommendation

Avoid running cookie/storage commands on sensitive sites, clear browser state when finished, and prefer a dedicated profile with no personal accounts.

What this means

Installing the upstream package requires trusting the npm package and any dependencies it installs.

Why it was flagged

The installation path delegates to an unpinned global npm package and its installer. This is expected for a CLI wrapper, but the reviewed skill contains no bundled code to verify.

Skill content
npm install -g agent-browser
agent-browser install
agent-browser install --with-deps
Recommendation

Verify the npm package and upstream repository before installing, and consider pinning a known version.
