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.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00186 | $0.02212 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00093 | $0.01106 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00037 | $0.00442 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00019 | $0.00221 |
Grade A, and why
chrome-bridge-automation 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 11d 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 Bridge Automation
CRITICAL RULES — VIOLATIONS WILL BREAK THE WORKFLOW:
- Never run midscene commands in the background. Each command must run synchronously so you can read its output (especially screenshots) before deciding the next action. Background execution breaks the screenshot-analyze-act loop.
- Run only one midscene command at a time. Wait for the previous command to finish, read the screenshot, then decide the next action. Never chain multiple commands together.
- Allow enough time for each command to complete. Midscene commands involve AI inference and screen interaction, which can take longer than typical shell commands. A typical command needs about 1 minute; complex
actcommands may need even longer.- Always report task results before finishing. After completing the automation task, you MUST proactively summarize the results to the user — including key data found, actions completed, screenshots taken, and any relevant findings. Never silently end after the last automation step; the user expects a complete response in a single interaction.
Automate the user's real Chrome browser via the Midscene Chrome Extension (Bridge mode), preserving cookies, sessions, and login state. You (the AI agent) act as the brain, deciding which actions to take based on screenshots.
Command Format
CRITICAL — Every command MUST follow this EXACT format. Do NOT modify the command prefix.
npx @midscene/web@1 --bridge <subcommand> [args]
--bridgeflag is MANDATORY here — it activates Bridge mode to connect to the user's desktop Chrome browser
Prerequisites
The user has already prepared Chrome and the Midscene Extension. Do NOT check browser or extension status before connecting — just connect directly.
Midscene requires models with strong visual grounding capabilities. The following environment variables must be configured — either as system environment variables or in a .env file in the current working directory (Midscene loads .env automatically):
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.

chrome-bridge-automation is a skill published in the GitHub repository Hainrixz/claude-webkit (227 stars, last pushed 20d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 186 tokens to every session and 2,212 once invoked, about $0.0009 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.

Use when creating or maintaining OpenCLI site sitemaps: agent-facing navigation, page-state, action, workflow, API-reference, pitfall, and fallback knowledge for a website. Use after browser exploration discovers durable site context, when a sitemap is stale, or when promoting local site knowledge into the repo.
debug-optimize-lcp
Guides debugging and optimizing Largest Contentful Paint (LCP) using Chrome DevTools MCP tools. Use this skill whenever the user asks about LCP performance, slow page loads, Core Web Vitals optimization, or wants to understand why their page's main content takes too long to appear. Also use when the user mentions…
