safari-mcp-workflow

safari-mcp-workflow is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from gaelic-ghost/socket. It costs 48 tokens per session (1,129 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A guide to inspecting a live website in Safari Technology Preview, Apple’s browser version for testing newer web features. It gathers evidence from the page, console, network, accessibility, performance, and responsive views.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to investigate a scoped website’s DOM, errors, requests, screenshots, interactions, accessibility, performance, responsive layout, or print output.
Why use it?
It helps diagnose Safari-specific rendering and runtime problems using the actual browser environment instead of relying only on source-code inspection.

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

safari-mcp-workflow 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 yesterday.

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.

Safari MCP Workflow

Purpose

Use Safari MCP for evidence from a live Safari Technology Preview tab. It owns browser-runtime observation and authorized interaction, not Safari extension architecture, app-to-Safari control, Web Inspector extension design, or cross-browser certification.

When To Use

  • Use for Safari-specific rendering, DOM, console, network, screenshot, interaction, accessibility, performance, responsive, or print-media investigation.
  • Use when a local web app needs Safari evidence before a fix is proposed or accepted.
  • Use safari-extension-control-workflow for Safari Web Extension, Safari App Extension, SafariServices, or Web Inspector extension architecture.
  • Use xcode-testing-workflow for XCTest, XCUITest, simulator, or Xcode-run validation.
  • Use explore-apple-swift-docs for Apple documentation lookup that does not need a live tab.

Single-Path Workflow

  1. Scope the target before connecting: name the origin, tab, requested state, permitted interactions, and any sensitive data boundary. Do not inspect unrelated tabs.
  2. Preflight Safari Technology Preview 247 or later, its safaridriver executable, and Safari's Enable remote automation and external agents setting (shown as Allow remote automation in some builds). Read references/setup-and-privacy.md.
  3. Register Safari MCP only with explicit approval. Use the documented local safaridriver --mcp command; do not bundle a server, silently alter global MCP configuration, or claim a connection before listing its tools.
  4. Establish page state with tab, URL, loading, and get_page_content evidence before evaluating JavaScript or taking a screenshot. Use its node uid values when an interaction must target a specific element. Then collect the smallest useful combination of console, network, DOM, JavaScript, and screenshot evidence.
  5. Perform only the authorized interaction sequence; batch related reversible steps through page_interactions with a stated purpose and the relevant node uid when that makes the recorded sequence clearer. Do not submit forms, purchase, delete, change account state, or reveal secrets without a fresh user confirmation immediately before the effect.
  6. For accessibility, inspect semantic markup, labels, ARIA, keyboard reachability, and relevant visual contrast evidence. Report findings as focused checks, not a compliance certification.
  7. For performance, use bounded page metrics and network timings. State whether the evidence is a one-run observation, not a benchmark or regression guarantee.
  8. Re-check the requested outcome after each change with independent evidence. Read references/evidence-and-validation.md for the reporting contract.
  9. Return the target, Safari Technology Preview version, observed evidence, authorized actions, unresolved uncertainty, and one focused handoff.

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.
