Automated safety checks
This skill failed 1 of 6 checks. A failure is not proof of bad intent; it means something in the code needs a human to look at it before you run it.
Declares what it does: failed
No SKILL.md was found in the skill's directory.
SKILL.md exists, its frontmatter parses, and it declares a name and a description.
No undeclared network calls: passed
Makes no network calls.
Every host the skill dials — from its scripts, its config endpoints or the commands it tells the agent to run — is either well-known package and API infrastructure or declared in its own frontmatter. Links in documentation are not counted.
No obfuscated payloads: passed
No encoded or obfuscated payloads.
No base64, hex or compressed blob is decoded and then executed, and no encoded shell commands.
No credential access: passed
Reads no keys, tokens, keychains or credential files.
Neither the code nor the SKILL.md instructions read SSH keys, cloud credentials, keychains, token stores, browser cookie databases or dotfiles that hold secrets.
No pipe-to-shell installers: passed
No pipe-to-shell or download-and-run installers.
No `curl … | sh` pattern, in the code or in the instructions, that runs code fetched at run time.

About this skill
What it does
The playwright-generate-test skill enables AI agents to automatically generate Playwright test scripts for web applications. It analyzes the structure and behavior of a website, then creates end-to-end tests that simulate user interactions like clicking buttons, filling forms, and navigating pages.
When to use it
- You need to quickly create a suite of automated tests for a new or updated web application.
- You want to reduce manual test writing by leveraging AI-generated code.
- Your team is adopting Playwright and needs boilerplate test scripts to get started.
- You're looking to validate that your website behaves as expected across different browsers.
Key capabilities
- Automatically generates Playwright tests based on user interactions observed or described.
- Supports multiple programming languages, including JavaScript and TypeScript.
- Integrates with CI/CD pipelines for continuous testing of web applications.
- Can be customized to fit specific test scenarios or frameworks.
Example prompts
- "Generate a Playwright test script for the login functionality of my website."
- "Create a test that navigates to the homepage, searches for 'AI', and verifies the results page loads correctly."
- "Write a TypeScript Playwright test that fills out a contact form and checks for success message."
Tips & gotchas
- Ensure your application is accessible via a URL that the AI agent can reach.
- Generated tests may require adjustments to match exact selectors or assertions in your project.
