skills/cloud/SKILL.md
Documentation reference for using Browser Use Cloud — the hosted API and SDK for browser automation. Use this skill whenever the user needs help with the Cloud REST API (v2 or v3), browser-use-sdk (Python or TypeScript), X-Browser-Use-API-Key authentication, cloud sessions, browser profiles, profile sync, CDP WebSocket connections, stealth browsers, residential proxies, CAPTCHA handling, webhooks, workspaces, skills marketplace, liveUrl streaming, pricing, or integration patterns (chat UI, subagent, adding browser tools to existing agents). Also trigger for questions about n8n/Make/Zapier integration, Playwright/ Puppeteer/Selenium on cloud infrastructure, or 1Password vault integration. Do NOT use this for the open-source Python library (Agent, Browser, Tools config) — use the open-source skill instead.

Set up Browser Use Cloud payments with x402 — pay per request from a crypto wallet (USDC on Base mainnet), no signup or API key. Two setups it works out up front — "just use it" (set up a wallet so you or Claude Code can run cloud browser tasks paid from the wallet — Claude writes and runs throwaway scripts, nothing touches your codebase) or "build it in" (install the SDK and write the key + code into your project). Walks through wallet setup, funding, .env, and a ~$1 test run. Use when the user asks about x402, pay-per-use, USDC payments, or wants Browser Use Cloud without an API key. For the free-tier signup (reverse-CAPTCHA → API key), use `browser-use cloud signup` or the `cloud` skill instead.
development
Automates browser interactions for web testing, form filling, screenshots, and data extraction. Use when the user needs to navigate websites, interact with web pages, fill forms, take screenshots, or extract information from web pages.
tools
Documentation reference for writing Python code using the browser-use open-source library. Use this skill whenever the user needs help with Agent, Browser, or Tools configuration, is writing code that imports from browser_use, asks about @sandbox deployment, supported LLM models, Actor API, custom tools, lifecycle hooks, MCP server setup, or monitoring/observability with Laminar or OpenLIT. Also trigger for questions about browser-use installation, prompting strategies, or sensitive data handling. Do NOT use this for Cloud API/SDK usage or pricing — use the cloud skill instead. Do NOT use this for directly automating a browser via CLI commands — use the browser-use skill instead.
development
Controls a local browser from a sandboxed remote machine. Use when the agent is running in a sandbox (no GUI) and needs to navigate websites, interact with web pages, fill forms, take screenshots, or expose local dev servers via tunnels.
