browser_visible

browser_visible is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from agentscope-ai/QwenPaw. It costs 108 tokens per session (1,053 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

Browser launch controls for choosing whether a Chromium-based browser window is visible, which browser program to run, and which startup options to pass.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to start a browser with a visible or hidden window, custom Chromium arguments, a proxy, or a specified browser executable.
Why use it?
It removes the need to rely on one fixed browser setup. You can show the window for debugging, use a custom browser, or add options such as private browsing or a proxy.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

browser_visible scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 1mo ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

What it actually says

已弃用: 此参考服务于稳定的 browser 实现。启用实验模式时,请优先使用统一的 browser 工具。

浏览器启动模式

browser.start 的启动方式:

  • 默认:Playwright 直接管理,不开放调试端口
  • cdp_port=N:managed CDP,开放本地调试端口供其他本地工具附加(详见 browser_cdp skill)
  • private_mode=true:与默认相同,保留用于兼容

参数含义:

  • headed:是否显示浏览器窗口
  • private_mode:保留用于兼容,不再改变启动方式
  • browser_args:额外的 Chromium 启动参数(字符串),多个参数用空格分隔。适用于所有启动路径(headless、headed、managed CDP)。例如 "--incognito" 启用隐身模式,"--proxy-server=http://127.0.0.1:7890" 设置代理。默认空字符串(无额外参数)。
  • executable_path:自定义浏览器可执行文件路径(字符串)。设置后覆盖系统默认浏览器检测,可指定任意基于 Chromium 的浏览器。例如 "C:\\Program Files\\Google\\Chrome\\Application\\chrome.exe"。仅允许包含已知浏览器关键词(chrome、chromium、edge、firefox、brave 等)的可执行文件,且文件必须存在。默认空字符串(使用系统默认)。

以上参数互不影响,可自由组合。

常见用法

默认启动:

{"action": "start"}

打开可见窗口:

{"action": "start", "headed": true}

隐身模式:

{"action": "start", "headed": true, "browser_args": "--incognito"}

指定浏览器路径 + 设置代理:

{"action": "start", "headed": true, "browser_args": "--proxy-server=http://127.0.0.1:7890", "executable_path": "C:\\Program Files\\Google\\Chrome\\Application\\chrome.exe"}

private_mode

已是默认行为,无需设置。该参数仅为兼容旧调用而保留,与 cdp_port 同时传入会被拒绝。

什么时候用 browser_args

当用户需要传入 Chromium 原生启动参数时使用,常见场景:

  • 隐身/无痕模式(--incognito、--inprivate)
  • 设置代理(--proxy-server)
  • 指定窗口大小(--window-size=1920,1080)
  • 禁用 GPU(--disable-gpu)
  • 加载扩展(--load-extension=/path/to/ext)

参数使用 shell 风格的空格分隔,在 Windows 上会自动处理路径中的反斜杠。

什么时候用 executable_path

当用户需要使用非系统默认的浏览器时使用,常见场景:

  • 系统默认是 Chrome,但用户想用 Edge
  • 安装了多个浏览器,想指定某一个
  • 使用便携版浏览器

注意:executable_path 只接受包含已知浏览器关键词(chrome、chromium、edge、firefox、brave、vivaldi、opera、360se、yandex、tor)的可执行文件,且路径必须指向一个真实存在的文件。

注意

  • 默认由 Playwright 直接管理,不开放调试端口
  • 启动方式完全由调用参数决定
  • managed CDP 依赖本机存在 Chrome / Chromium / Edge
  • 用户手动操作可见浏览器时,不一定会刷新 idle 计时
  • private_mode、browser_args、executable_path 都是每次 start 的显式参数,不会持久保存
  • 若当前已有浏览器在运行,需要先 stop 再重新 start,才能切换启动方式、窗口可见性或启动参数。
  • 可见模式会占用桌面并需要图形环境,服务器或无图形环境可能无法使用。

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
