What this skill does
Automate browser interactions, test web pages and work with Playwright tests. Some pages register their own tools for agents through the experimental WebMCP API. When a page has them, the page status says so, and the snapshot lists them at the top. Run webmcp-list to get the same list and schemas without taking a snapshot:
