Browser Recording Skill

Record browser sessions using Playwright to create video captures of web UI interactions for tutorials and documentation.

When To Use

• Recording browser sessions with Playwright
• Creating web application demo recordings

When NOT To Use

• Terminal-only workflows - use scry:vhs-recording instead
• Static screenshots - use standard screenshot tools

Overview

This skill uses Playwright's built-in video recording to capture browser interactions. The workflow:

1. Validate Playwright installation
2. Execute a Playwright spec with video recording enabled
3. Retrieve the recorded video (WebM format)
4. Convert to GIF using the gif-generation skill

💡 Note: Claude Code 2.0.72+ includes native Chrome integration for interactive browser control. This skill (Playwright) is designed for automated recording workflows, CI/CD, and cross-browser support. For interactive debugging and live testing, consider using native Chrome integration. Both approaches complement each other - develop interactively with Chrome, then automate with Playwright specs.

Required TodoWrite Items

When invoking this skill, create todos for:

- [ ] Validate Playwright is installed and configured
- [ ] Check spec file exists at specified path
- [ ] Execute Playwright spec with video recording
- [ ] Locate and verify video output
- [ ] Convert video to GIF using gif-generation skill

Verification: Run the command with --help flag to verify availability.

Process

Step 1: Validate Playwright Installation

Check that Playwright is available:

npx playwright --version

Verification: Run the command with --help flag to verify availability.

If not installed, the user should run:

npm install -D @playwright/test
npx playwright install chromium

Verification: Run pytest -v to verify tests pass.

Step 2: Check Spec File

Verify the Playwright spec file exists. Spec files should:

• Be located in a specs/ or tests/ directory
• Have .spec.ts or .spec.js extension
• Include video configuration (see spec-execution module)
