crawler

crawler is a skill for Claude Code from ggombee/code-forge. It costs 37 tokens per session (979 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A Playwright workflow for exploring websites and designing crawlers. Playwright is a browser-automation tool; the workflow covers inspecting pages, analyzing network requests, documenting findings, and generating crawler code.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it for web crawling or scraping, website data extraction, and reverse-engineering the requests a site makes. It also points to anti-bot guidance when that is relevant.
Why use it?
It provides a repeatable way to understand a site before extracting data, including its page structure, API calls, and element selectors.

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

crawler 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 2mo 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.

Changes

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.
