Browser Automation
Control local Electron apps and run UI tests via Chrome DevTools Protocol.
Installation
- Make sure Claude is on your device and in your terminal.
Skills load from
~/.claude/skills/when Claude Code starts up — so you need it on your machine first. If you don't have it yet, install it once with the command below, then runclaudein any terminal to verify.One-time setupnpm i -g @anthropic-ai/claude-codeAlready have it? Skip ahead.
- Paste into Claude Code or into your terminal.
This copies the whole skill folder into

Skips the clone and grabs only the SKILL.md file. Don't use this if the skill ships Python scripts, reference markdowns, or asset templates — they won't be downloaded and the skill will fail when it tries to load them.

Quit and reopen Claude Code (or any other agent that loads from
~/.claude/skills/). New skills are picked up on startup. - Just ask Claude.

When Claude uses it
Local iPolloWork Electron browser automation with CDP. Use when driving a local Electron dev app, browser_list, browser_snapshot, browser_eval, composer automation, or local UI smoke tests.
What this skill does
Browser Automation
What I Do
- Attach OpenCode browser tools to the iPolloWork Electron app during local development.
- Drive the app UI through Electron's Chrome DevTools Protocol endpoint.
- Send a task/session from the composer and confirm the response in the UI.
Local Dev Setup
pnpm dev enables Electron CDP by default:
IPOLLOWORK_ELECTRON_REMOTE_DEBUG_PORT=${IPOLLOWORK_ELECTRON_REMOTE_DEBUG_PORT:-9823}
The default browser URL for OpenCode browser tools is:
http://127.0.0.1:9823
The app UI normally loads at:
http://localhost:5173/
To use a different CDP port, launch with an override:
IPOLLOWORK_ELECTRON_REMOTE_DEBUG_PORT=9830 pnpm dev
To disable Electron CDP for a run:
IPOLLOWORK_ELECTRON_REMOTE_DEBUG_PORT=0 pnpm dev
Background Launch
Use a detached launch when the user wants the app running in the background:
nohup pnpm dev > /var/folders/d9/xqhkvsp94rg0n0n523snqztm0000gn/T/opencode/ipollowork-dev.log 2>&1 &
Then wait for the CDP port:
lsof -nP -iTCP:9823 -sTCP:LISTEN
Browser Tool Flow
- List targets with
browser_listusingbrowser_url: "http://127.0.0.1:9823". - Select the
iPolloWorktarget ID. - Read state with
browser_evalorbrowser_snapshot. - Fill the Lexical composer by targeting
[contenteditable="true"][data-lexical-editor="true"]. - Click the
Run taskbutton. - Confirm the session response by checking
document.body.innerTextor the current URL.
Send A Session
Use this browser_eval pattern after selecting the iPolloWork target:
(() => {
const editor = document.querySelector('[contenteditable="true"][data-lexical-editor="true"]');
if (!editor) return { ok: false, reason: 'editor not found' };
editor.focus();
const data = new DataTransfer();
data.setData('text/plain', 'Say hello from the Electron browser test.');
editor.dispatchEvent(new ClipboardEvent('paste', {
bubbles: true,
cancelable: true,
clipboardData: data,
}));
const run = Array.from(document.querySelectorAll('button'))
.find((button) => button.innerText.trim() === 'Run task');
if (!run) return { ok: false, reason: 'Run task not found', inserted };
if (run.disabled) return { ok: false, reason: 'Run task disabled', inserted, text: editor.innerText };
run.click();
return { ok: true, inserted: true, text: editor.innerText };
})()
Notes
- Electron CDP is used for development test tooling. User browser tasks should use the built-in iPolloWork Browser target.
- A successful local attach should show an
iPolloWorktarget athttp://127.0.0.1:9823. - The known-good smoke prompt is
Say hello from the Electron browser test.and the expected response isHello from the Electron browser test.
