playwright-cli

Developed by microsoft

playwright-cli is a command-line interface by Microsoft, tailored for AI coding agents like Claude Code and GitHub Copilot. By exposing browser automation as concise CLI commands (SKILLs), it delivers a token-efficient alternative to MCP, preventing large page schemas or accessibility trees from bloating the LLM context. It features headless/headed execution, multi-session isolation with optional persistence, and a visual dashboard for live monitoring and manual takeover.

  • Token-efficient design that avoids loading heavy page schemas into LLM context
  • Tailored for coding agent CLI workflows like Claude Code and GitHub Copilot
  • Visual dashboard for live browser session monitoring and interactive takeover
  • Multi-session support with in-memory profiles or disk-based persistence
  • Comprehensive CLI suite covering DOM, input emulation, network mocking, and DevTools
