chrome-devtools

chrome-devtools is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from yunsii/wezdeck. It costs 44 tokens per session (1,292 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A skill for controlling a Chrome browser that is running with remote debugging enabled. It supports navigation, page snapshots, screenshots, clicks, form entry, and inspection of browser console and network activity.

In plain words
What is it for?
Opening URLs, checking changed interfaces, clicking buttons, completing forms, taking screenshots, and investigating browser console or network problems.
Why use it?
It lets an agent inspect and operate the actual browser page instead of relying only on downloaded HTML. This helps reveal broken interactions, visible errors, and failed network requests.

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

chrome-devtools scanned grade A with 1 finding 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 1mo 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.

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

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 116 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Chrome DevTools (Dex / OpenClaw core)

What this is

Dex (Main) can control the Windows host debug Chrome through OpenClaw MCP:

Piece Where
CDP endpoint http://127.0.0.1:9222 (WezDeck helper auto-start)
MCP server name chrome-devtools in local ~/.openclaw/openclaw.json → mcp.servers
Package globally-installed chrome-devtools-mcp --browser-url=http://127.0.0.1:9222 --usageStatistics=false (pinned; not npx …@latest)

This is not the same MCP session as Grok/Claude CLI; all clients share the same Chrome process on port 9222. Avoid concurrent multi-agent browser wars.

Workflow detail for launch / badge / inspect: repo root docs/browser-debug.md.

When to use (Dex · Main)

Trigger Action
User: open/check URL, click, form, screenshot MCP navigate + snapshot (not curl HTML)
You just changed UI (allowlisted repo) Before 验收通过: open relevant URL/path, snapshot
“页面坏了 / 控制台报错 / 按钮点不了” list pages / console / network as needed

Coding agents on the host have their own browser/MCP/profile — this skill is for main when main is looking at the page. No bridge required.

When not to use

  • Pure git / shell / ledger / worktree assess — do not open Chrome “just in case”.
  • Destructive browser actions outside what the user asked (clear profile, mass delete, payment submit) without explicit confirmation.
  • Host shell risk still goes through claw-run / exec-risk — browser MCP is separate.

Operator setup (once per machine)

# CDP must answer first
curl -sS -m 3 http://127.0.0.1:9222/json/version

# Install once, pinned. Never drive this from `npx …@latest`: npx leaves
# npm-cli resident (~85Mi) per instance purely as a launcher.
npm i -g [email protected]

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.
