microsoft/playwright-cli
CLI for common Playwright actions. Record and generate Playwright code, inspect selectors and take screenshots.
A token-efficient CLI alternative to Playwright MCP for coding agents — This CLI exposes Playwright actions as SKILLs for coding agents like Claude Code or GitHub Copilot, avoiding the overhead of loading tool schemas and accessibility trees into context. It suits high-throughput agents juggling browser automation with code and limited context windows, unlike MCP's persistent, introspective approach.
