## What it is
An Agent Skill and Claude Code plugin that lets coding agents write and execute Playwright automation scripts on the fly, from simple page tests to complex multi-step flows. It packages a portable executor, helper utilities, and progressive-disclosure documentation so agents generate real, rerunnable Playwright code.

## Use cases
- have a coding agent write and run playwright tests
- automate browser flows like login and form submission
- generate rerunnable browser automation scripts
- take screenshots or record video of web flows
- intercept network requests during browser automation
- run e2e tests against a local dev server from an agent

## When to choose
- you want an agent to author real Playwright programs with loops, assertions, and multiple contexts
- you want the automation script itself as a reusable artifact
- you use Claude Code or skill-compatible agents and need browser automation on demand

## When to avoid
- you only need simple interactive browsing or accessibility-snapshot-based tool control (use playwright-mcp or playwright-cli instead)
- you need a traditional prebuilt test suite rather than agent-generated scripts
