web-preview

web-preview is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from kirodotdev/KiroCrew. It costs 58 tokens per session (951 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A preview marker for KiroCrew’s Browser tab, which embeds a locally running website in the chat’s side panel.

In plain words
What is it for?
It helps preview sites and apps started with tools such as Vite, Next.js, npm, or Python’s local web server.
Why use it?
It removes the need to copy a local address into a browser panel yourself. The marker is emitted only after the development server is confirmed running.

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

web-preview 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 12d 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 78 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Web Preview marker

KiroCrew's chat right-side panel has a Browser tab (+ menu → Browser) that embeds a URL in a live iframe. When you start a local web server so the user can preview a site/app, tell the dashboard which URL to load by emitting a single hidden marker in your reply.

The marker

Emit exactly this, on its own line, once the server is confirmed listening:

<!-- kirocrew:preview url="http://127.0.0.1:PORT" -->
  • It's an HTML comment, so the user never sees it in the dashboard chat. Only the dashboard has a Browser panel: in a Slack, Discord or other channel conversation the marker is not stripped and reaches the user as literal text, so do not emit it there — give the URL in prose instead. The dashboard opens the Browser tab and shows a Load preview card for that URL, contextual to the current session. Nothing is fetched until the user clicks Load, so tell them to click it rather than saying the preview is already showing.
  • Use the actual URL the server binds to, including the real port (http://localhost:5173, http://127.0.0.1:8080, …). Only loopback is usable: a non-loopback marker is dropped silently — you get no error, the panel just stays empty — so emit only 127.0.0.1, localhost or [::1]. A URL on the dashboard's own loopback port is refused too (it would frame the dashboard), so serve previews on a different port.
  • The panel may rewrite the host it loads: [::1] becomes 127.0.0.1, and localhost and 127.0.0.1 are swapped against each other for cookie isolation. Same server, different spelling — do not read the difference as a failure.
  • Emit it after you've confirmed the server is up (e.g. it returned HTTP 200), not before.
  • If you restart on a different port, emit a new marker with the new URL — the panel re-points to the newest one. Re-emitting the same URL does nothing (it is applied once per session), so if the user closed the tab, point them back to it instead of re-emitting.

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.
