README

@howaboua/pi-skill-chrome-cdp

Controls a local Chrome-family browser through the Chrome DevTools Protocol. It can inspect rendered pages and authenticated tabs, navigate, click, type, evaluate JavaScript, and capture screenshots.

Install

pi install npm:@howaboua/pi-skill-chrome-cdp

Requirements

  • Node.js 22 or newer
  • Chrome, Chromium, Brave, Edge, or Vivaldi with remote debugging enabled at chrome://inspect/#remote-debugging

The bundled CLI is scripts/cdp.mjs. It discovers Chrome on CDP_PORT or port 9222, then falls back to DevToolsActivePort; set CDP_PORT_FILE for a non-standard port-file location.

Use the skill when an agent needs a real rendered page or existing browser state. It includes bounded accessibility snapshots with reusable element IDs, targeted page search, HTML, navigation, network timing, clicks, typing, screenshots, raw CDP calls, and clearer timeout recovery.

Based on pasky/chrome-cdp-skill, with Pi packaging and local changes.
