Cloud
Apps & AutomationcloudCloud is an Agent Skill for apps & automation published in the browser-use/browser-use repository on GitHub: a SKILL.md instruction file an AI agent can load to do this task.
Documentation reference for using Browser Use Cloud — the hosted API and SDK for browser automation. Use this skill whenever the user needs help with the Cloud REST API (v2 or v3), browser-use-sdk (Python or TypeScript), X-Browser-Use-API-Key authentication, cloud sessions, browser profiles, profile sync, CDP WebSocket connections, stealth browsers, residential proxies, CAPTCHA handling, webhooks, workspaces, skills marketplace, liveUrl streaming, pricing, or integration patterns (chat UI, subagent, adding browser tools to existing agents). Also trigger for questions about n8n/Make/Zapier integration, Playwright/ Puppeteer/Selenium on cloud infrastructure, or 1Password vault integration. Do NOT use this for the open-source Python library (Agent, Browser, Tools config) — use the open-source skill instead.
How to use this skill
Bring this guide into your coding agent with a prompt tailored to the tool you use.
- Open your project in Codex.
- Copy and paste the prompt below.
- Review files and risks before approving any action.
Inspect the Agent Skill at https://github.com/browser-use/browser-use/blob/HEAD/skills/cloud/SKILL.md and all supporting files. Report provenance, permissions, scripts, dependencies, and security risks. Propose an exact installation into .agents/skills/cloud, but wait for my approval before writing files or running scripts.
Copying this prompt does not install or run the skill. Review third-party files before use.
