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

playwright-cli 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 17d 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.

Browser Automation with playwright-cli

Using this Skill in vBot

Run CLI commands through the shell Tool on the server host. Check playwright-cli --version; these instructions accompany @playwright/cli 0.1.19. If the CLI is missing or older, follow Installation below. Node.js 18 or newer and npm are required for installation. A missing browser executable requires the browser installation command reported by the CLI. Headed windows and the annotation dashboard appear on the server host; use headless operation when that host has no graphical display.

Choose a unique browser session name for the current task and pass -s=<name> on every browser command, including the examples below. Reuse that name across calls. Close only your named session when finished; detach from browsers you attached to. Use close-all, kill-all, or profile deletion only when the user's task explicitly covers those other sessions or data.

Read linked reference files on demand with skill(name="playwright-cli", file_path="references/..."). When the references run a command in the background, run it with run_in_background true and look for the line they wait for with background_tasks action status; stop the command with action stop. CLI output may link to snapshots, logs, screenshots, or traces saved on the server: read the relevant files with the available file Tools. A printed file path alone does not show its contents. Keep the working directory consistent across calls. Use current snapshot refs or verified locators, inspect the resulting page before repeating an uncertain action, and verify the requested outcome.

Quick start

# open new browser
playwright-cli open
# navigate to a page
playwright-cli goto https://playwright.dev
# interact with the page using refs from the snapshot
playwright-cli click e15
playwright-cli type "page.click"
playwright-cli press Enter
# take a screenshot (rarely used, as snapshot is more common)
playwright-cli screenshot
# close the browser
playwright-cli close

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.
