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

browser 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 3d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 3 executable files (templates/authenticated-session.sh, templates/capture-workflow.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.

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 — 138 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Pioneer Browser

Drive a browser with agent-browser through the runtime's available command execution tool. Ordinary navigation, reading, interaction and capture can start from this file. Load detailed references only for the matching task.

Runtime binding

In native Pioneer, load this skill by its exact skill:<id> reference and resolve package files under the returned skill_asset_root. In Codex, Claude and OpenCode, resolve files relative to the exported skill directory (the Pioneer system alias is pioneer-system-browser). Use only tools in the current catalog; the skill does not supply tools or extend permissions.

Run an installed agent-browser directly. Do not repeat installation or setup checks before ordinary commands. If it is missing or a browser launch fails, read setup and troubleshooting. Prefer an available service connector when it supports the requested operation.

Select a task session

Use one named session unique to this task or turn. Include the task/turn id or a fresh nonce; a domain or worktree alone collides with other Pioneer agents. Give independent workers their own suffixes. Keep the actual name in working notes so it survives compaction.

Pass --session <actual-name> on every command across separate tool calls. Alternatively set AGENT_BROWSER_SESSION in each execution environment; an export in one shell call may not survive the next. All bare commands in references assume that environment is set. Reuse a prior session only when continuing that task or deliberately reusing authorized saved state.

Core workflow

Replace the example session suffix with this task's unique id:

browser_session="pioneer-browser-<unique-task-or-turn-id>"
agent-browser --session "$browser_session" open https://example.com
agent-browser --session "$browser_session" snapshot -i
# Choose refs from the actual snapshot, then act:
agent-browser --session "$browser_session" click @e3
# Wait for the expected result, then inspect it:
agent-browser --session "$browser_session" wait --text "Expected result"
agent-browser --session "$browser_session" snapshot -i

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.
