# Browser Automation

Use this skill when a task requires browser automation, web interaction, page inspection, scraping, or scripted browser control.

## Routing

1. Prefer specialized Rome apps for browser automation. Search installed Rome apps, actions, and skills for a domain-specific capability before using a generic browser tool.
2. If a specialized Rome app is available, use that app's action or skill and follow its instructions.
3. If no specialized app is available, run bash command `opencli <site> --help` to check whether OpenCLI is available and what browser automation commands it exposes.
4. Use OpenCLI only after checking `opencli <site> --help` and selecting a command that matches the task.

## Browser connections

OpenCLI uses its browser extension by default. Run `opencli profile list` to discover connected browsers before choosing a target.
Pass `opencli --profile <name-or-id> ...` on every command for a task so concurrent work does not change its browser.
If the requested browser is disconnected, report that it is unavailable. Do not substitute another browser or assume its login session is equivalent.
Settings > Advanced > Computer Use shows observed browser connections and their last seen times.
Use `--cdp-endpoint` only when the task explicitly requires a direct CDP connection.
