chrome-devtools

chrome-devtools is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from boshi-xixixi/TraeSkill. It costs 38 tokens per session (929 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A browser inspection and automation tool based on Chrome DevTools, the built-in toolkit for examining web pages. It can interact with pages, inspect errors and requests, capture screenshots, and examine performance.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to navigate sites, fill in forms, inspect console and network activity, take screenshots, and find page-performance bottlenecks.
Why use it?
It brings common browser testing and debugging work into an agent workflow, so you can investigate problems without switching between many manual DevTools panels.

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

chrome-devtools 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.

Chrome DevTools Agent

Overview

A specialized skill for controlling and inspecting a live Chrome browser. This skill leverages the chrome-devtools MCP server to perform a wide range of browser-related tasks, from simple navigation to complex performance profiling.

When to Use

Use this skill when:

  • Browser Automation: Navigating pages, clicking elements, filling forms, and handling dialogs.
  • Visual Inspection: Taking screenshots or text snapshots of web pages.
  • Debugging: Inspecting console messages, evaluating JavaScript in the page context, and analyzing network requests.
  • Performance Analysis: Recording and analyzing performance traces to identify bottlenecks and Core Web Vital issues.
  • Emulation: Resizing the viewport or emulating network/CPU conditions.

Tool Categories

1. Navigation & Page Management

  • new_page: Open a new tab/page.
  • navigate_page: Go to a specific URL, reload, or navigate history.
  • select_page: Switch context between open pages.
  • list_pages: See all open pages and their IDs.
  • close_page: Close a specific page.
  • wait_for: Wait for specific text to appear on the page.

2. Input & Interaction

  • click: Click on an element (use uid from snapshot).
  • fill / fill_form: Type text into inputs or fill multiple fields at once.
  • hover: Move the mouse over an element.
  • press_key: Send keyboard shortcuts or special keys (e.g., "Enter", "Control+C").
  • drag: Drag and drop elements.
  • handle_dialog: Accept or dismiss browser alerts/prompts.
  • upload_file: Upload a file through a file input.

3. Debugging & Inspection

  • take_snapshot: Get a text-based accessibility tree (best for identifying elements).
  • take_screenshot: Capture a visual representation of the page or a specific element.
  • list_console_messages / get_console_message: Inspect the page's console output.
  • evaluate_script: Run custom JavaScript in the page context.
  • list_network_requests / get_network_request: Analyze network traffic and request details.
