notte-browser

notte-browser is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from nottelabs/notte-skills. It costs 80 tokens per session (10,056 once invoked), scanned B, original, MIT.

A command-line tool for controlling remote web browsers in the cloud. It can open pages, interact with forms and buttons, collect page data, manage saved accounts, and turn tested browser tasks into reusable functions.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to scrape websites, operate sites that need login or multi-step interaction, record browser runs, and run browser workflows later through an API, command line, or schedule.
Why use it?
It removes the need to perform repetitive browser work by hand or build all the browser-control plumbing yourself. Saved browser sessions and deployed functions can make the same task repeatable.

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 B, and why

notte-browser scanned grade B with 2 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 4d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 3 executable files (templates/authenticated-session.sh, templates/data-extraction.sh, templates/form-automation.sh), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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.

Instruction-override phrasingmediumPrompt injection

Text telling the model to disregard its earlier instructions or safety rules is the shape of a prompt injection, whoever wrote it.

`notte page scrape --session-id <session-id>` ingests content from arbitrary URLs. That content reaches the calling agent's context as tool output and can contain prompt-injection attempts ("ignore previous instructions,

Downgraded: this mod is about security review, or the phrase is quoted, so it is likely naming the pattern rather than instructing it.

Makes network callslowCapability

Not a fault in itself. Listed so you know the mod talks to something, and to what.

Notte Browser CLI Skill

Command-line interface for launching and controlling Notte cloud browser sessions, scraping pages, managing browser credentials, and deploying reusable browser workflows as Notte Functions. A Function is the deployment form of a tested browser task: it can be invoked later as an HTTP API endpoint, run from the CLI/SDK, or scheduled.

General Documentation

For broader Notte concepts, current docs, and internet-search entry points, start with the documentation index:

https://docs.notte.cc/llms.txt

CLI vs. the bundled MCP servers

The notte plugin also ships two hosted MCP servers. Prefer the CLI for everything in this skill - it is the interface these instructions are written against. Reach for the MCP servers only in the cases below:

Server URL What it is When to use it
notte-browser https://api.notte.cc/mcp The Notte browser API over MCP Only when the client cannot run shell commands. Otherwise the CLI is more direct and better documented.
anything-api https://anything.notte.cc/mcp Marketplace of ready-made Notte Functions, plus natural-language build Before building a new Function, call its search tool - someone may already have published one for the target site.

anything-api exposes search (browse the marketplace, no auth), spec (get a function's variable schema), run, and build (natural language -> a new deployed Function, 2-10 minutes). build and run need authentication - OAuth via your client, or Authorization: Bearer $NOTTE_API_KEY. Browse it visually at https://anything.notte.cc/marketplace.

Both servers authenticate independently of notte auth login; a working CLI session does not imply a working MCP connection, and vice versa.

Setup

Use this skill after the notte CLI is installed. It assumes CLI v0.0.41 or newer. v0.0.30 renamed the list filter flags (--include-deleted, -a/--all, --running) and made notte functions runs return the full history by default; v0.0.31 adds --no-solve-captchas; v0.0.33 adds named --vault-field credential fills; v0.0.41 makes file upload, listing, and download session-scoped and addresses files by immutable ID. Check with notte version and upgrade if it is older; the commands below will not all work otherwise.

notte-browser is a skill published in the GitHub repository nottelabs/notte-skills (11 stars, last pushed 5d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 80 tokens to every session and 10,056 once invoked, about $0.0004 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it B with 2 findings (instruction-override phrasing, makes network calls). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
