+
+Agent Skills are self-contained folders with instructions and bundled resources that enhance AI capabilities for specialized tasks. Based on the [Agent Skills specification](https://github.com/agentskills/agentskills), each skill contains a `SKILL.md` file with detailed instructions that agents load on-demand.
+
+Skills differ from other primitives by supporting bundled assets (scripts, code samples, reference data) that agents can utilize when performing specialized tasks.
+### How to Use Agent Skills
+
+**What's Included:**
+- Each skill is a folder containing a `SKILL.md` instruction file
+- Skills may include helper scripts, code templates, or reference data
+- Skills follow the Agent Skills specification for maximum compatibility
+
+**When to Use:**
+- Skills are ideal for complex, repeatable workflows that benefit from bundled resources
+- Use skills when you need code templates, helper utilities, or reference data alongside instructions
+- Skills provide progressive disclosure - loaded only when needed for specific tasks
+
+**Usage:**
+- Browse the skills table below to find relevant capabilities
+- Copy the skill folder to your local skills directory
+- Reference skills in your prompts or let the agent discover them automatically
+
+| Name | Description | Bundled Assets |
+| ---- | ----------- | -------------- |

+description: Toolkit for interacting with and testing local web applications using Playwright. Supports verifying frontend functionality, debugging UI behavior, capturing browser screenshots, and viewing browser logs.
+---
+
+# Web Application Testing
+
+This skill enables comprehensive testing and debugging of local web applications using Playwright automation.
+
+## When to Use This Skill
+
+Use this skill when you need to:
+- Test frontend functionality in a real browser
+- Verify UI behavior and interactions
+- Debug web application issues
+- Capture screenshots for documentation or debugging
+- Inspect browser console logs
+- Validate form submissions and user flows
+- Check responsive design across viewports
+
+## Prerequisites
+
+- Node.js installed on the system
+- A locally running web application (or accessible URL)
+- Playwright will be installed automatically if not present
+
+## Core Capabilities
+
+### 1. Browser Automation
+- Navigate to URLs
+- Click buttons and links
+- Fill form fields
+- Select dropdowns
+- Handle dialogs and alerts
+
+### 2. Verification
+- Assert element presence
+- Verify text content
+- Check element visibility
+- Validate URLs
+- Test responsive behavior
+
+### 3. Debugging
+- Capture screenshots
+- View console logs
+- Inspect network requests
+- Debug failed tests
+
+## Usage Examples
+
+### Example 1: Basic Navigation Test
+```javascript
+// Navigate to a page and verify title
+await page.goto('http://localhost:3000');
+const title = await page.title();
+console.log('Page title:', title);
+```
+
+### Example 2: Form Interaction
+```javascript
+// Fill out and submit a form
+await page.fill('#username', 'testuser');
+await page.fill('#password', 'password123');
+await page.click('button[type="submit"]');
+await page.waitForURL('**/dashboard');
+```
+
+### Example 3: Screenshot Capture
+```javascript
+// Capture a screenshot for debugging
+await page.screenshot({ path: 'debug.png', fullPage: true });
+```
+
+## Guidelines
+
+1. **Always verify the app is running** - Check that the local server is accessible before running tests
+2. **Use explicit waits** - Wait for elements or navigation to complete before interacting
+3. **Capture screenshots on failure** - Take screenshots to help debug issues
+4. **Clean up resources** - Always close the browser when done
+5. **Handle timeouts gracefully** - Set reasonable timeouts for slow operations
+6. **Test incrementally** - Start with simple interactions before complex flows
+7. **Use selectors wisely** - Prefer data-testid or role-based selectors over CSS classes
+
+## Common Patterns
+
+### Pattern: Wait for Element
+```javascript
+await page.waitForSelector('#element-id', { state: 'visible' });
+```
+
+### Pattern: Check if Element Exists
+```javascript
+const exists = await page.locator('#element-id').count() > 0;
+```
+
+### Pattern: Get Console Logs
+```javascript
+page.on('console', msg => console.log('Browser log:', msg.text()));
+```
+
+### Pattern: Handle Errors
+```javascript
+try {
+  await page.click('#button');
+} catch (error) {
+  await page.screenshot({ path: 'error.png' });
+  throw error;
+}
+```
+
+## Limitations
+
+- Requires Node.js environment
+- Cannot test native mobile apps (use React Native Testing Library instead)
+- May have issues with complex authentication flows
+- Some modern frameworks may require specific configuration
