next-browser
Use Nextbrowser cloud API to spin up cloud browsers for Openclaw to run autonomous browser tasks. Primary use is creating browser sessions with profiles (persisted logins/cookies) that Openclaw can control to manage social media and other online accounts. Secondary use is running task subagents for fast autonomous browser automation under residential proxy, browser stealth, and CAPTCHA solving capability. Docs at docs.nextbrowser.com.
Why use this skill?
Automate cloud browsers with OpenClaw using Nextbrowser. Manage persistent sessions, residential proxies, and stealth tasks with our native API integration.
Install via CLI (Recommended)
clawhub install openclaw/skills/skills/highxshell/next-browserWhat This Skill Does
The next-browser skill integrates OpenClaw with the Nextbrowser cloud platform, enabling powerful, autonomous browser automation. By leveraging cloud-based browser instances, this skill allows OpenClaw to perform tasks that require persistent login states, cookie management, and advanced anti-bot evasion techniques. It acts as a bridge between the agent's logic and a professional-grade browsing environment, complete with residential proxies and stealth capabilities.
Installation
To begin using next-browser, install the skill via the ClawHub CLI:
clawhub install openclaw/skills/skills/highxshell/next-browser
Once installed, obtain an API key from Nextbrowser and configure it within your OpenClaw settings:
openclaw config set skills.entries.next-browser.apiKey "YOUR_API_KEY"
Use Cases
This skill is designed for complex automation scenarios, including:
- Social Media Management: Maintain persistent sessions on platforms like X, LinkedIn, or Instagram to perform automated posting or interaction without re-authenticating.
- Autonomous Web Scraping: Execute subagent tasks that require navigating dynamic, JavaScript-heavy sites that would typically trigger CAPTCHA or bot detection.
- Account Automation: Manage multiple online profiles, each isolated with its own proxy and browser fingerprint to prevent cross-contamination or platform-level bans.
Example Prompts
- "Use my 'Marketing' profile to log into LinkedIn and check for new connection requests."
- "Spin up a new cloud browser with a US residential proxy and scrape the product listing from this URL: [link]."
- "Delete the browser profile named 'Test-Project-01' and clear all associated cookies to reset my environment."
Tips & Limitations
- Persistence: Always utilize the
profilesfeature for tasks that require login persistence. This ensures OpenClaw does not have to log in repeatedly. - Resource Management: Remember to delete profiles you no longer use to maintain a clean workspace and manage your cloud resource credits effectively.
- Authentication: The skill relies on the API key provided in the configuration. If you receive an authentication error, verify your key status on the Nextbrowser dashboard.
- Security: Because this skill performs network-based operations, ensure that the URLs you instruct the agent to visit are trusted and compliant with your organization's security policies.
