Start UI - Pre-Flight with Chrome
Purpose
Run the standard /start pre-flight, then verify Chrome DevTools tools are loaded and navigate to the frontend.
Principle
Do not create more nodes to avoid thinking.
Create nodes only when they reduce confusion.
Instructions
Step 1 - Run /start
Invoke the start skill to do the normal pre-flight (CodeGraph, branch check, tool loading).
Step 2 - Verify Chrome tools
Run ToolSearch to load Chrome DevTools tools:
ToolSearch: "+chrome-devtools screenshot"
ToolSearch: "+chrome-devtools navigate"
Then try mcp__chrome-devtools__list_pages to confirm the connection is live.
If Chrome tools are not available, tell the user:
"Chrome tools not available. Run
claude mcp listto verify thechrome-devtoolsMCP server is registered."
Step 3 - Navigate to the frontend
Once Chrome is confirmed connected, navigate to the frontend app:
mcp__chrome-devtools__navigate_page(url: "http://localhost:3000")
Take a screenshot to confirm the app loaded and auth is active. If the page redirects to the login page instead of the app, tell the user:
"Frontend redirected to login. Please authenticate in the browser, then re-run
/start-ui."
Step 4 - Output
Append to the /start output:
**Chrome:** ✅ Connected — navigated to localhost:3000 / ❌ Not available
Constraints
- DO NOT read project docs —
/startalready handles that. - Keep output under 5 extra lines beyond
/start.
