Safety notes

  • Browser automation can access logged-in sessions—use staging accounts only.
  • Claude chooses Chrome before computer use for web tasks when configured.
  • Review permission prompts before approving navigation on sensitive pages.

Privacy notes

  • Browser QA sends page content to the model—avoid customer PII in test flows.
  • Screenshots and DOM snapshots may include session tokens in dev tools—close extras.

Prerequisites

  • Claude in Chrome extension installed per official Chrome documentation.
  • Staging web app URL and test credentials scoped to non-production.
  • Team policy for browser automation on authenticated sessions.

Source Verification Notes

Official Chrome docs describe Claude in Chrome for browser-based tasks, extension setup, and choosing browser automation before broader computer use for web work.

Scope Note

Community QA workflow skill applying documented Chrome integration steps—not an official Anthropic test product.

Core Workflow

  1. Verify extension install and account linkage.
  2. Define QA flow with URL and assertion checkpoints.
  3. Run staging-only tests with scoped credentials.
  4. Capture defect notes with page references—not production data.
  5. Stop and escalate if unexpected auth or payment pages appear.

Capability Scope

  • Chrome extension enablement verification.
  • Web QA flow checkpoint design.
  • Browser permission and session exposure review.
  • Defect observation with page-level evidence.
  • Privacy-safe QA reporting.

Production Rules

  • Use staging credentials only; never production admin accounts.
  • Stop browser QA when payment or SSO pages appear unexpectedly.
  • Do not store session cookies in skill output or public tickets.
  • Prefer Claude in Chrome over computer use for standard web flows per docs.
  • Human sign-off required before filing external bug reports with screenshots.

  2. Flow steps and checkpoints.
  3. Permission review.
  4. Defect observations.
  5. Privacy-safe summary.

Duplicate Check

Troubleshooting

Issue: Extension not controlling tab Fix: Re-link extension; confirm staging URL allowlist in team policy.

Safety notesBrowser automation can access logged-in sessions—use staging accounts only. Claude chooses Chrome before computer use for web tasks when configured. Review permission prompts before approving navigation on sensitive pages.This skill plans Agent SDK session storage; it must not execute destructive changes without explicit approval. Browser, computer-use, and remote surfaces can access sensitive UI state; scope tests carefully. MCP and SDK integrations may exfiltrate data if tool scopes are too broad. The public `anthropics/claude-code` repository ships documentation links to code.claude.com for settings, security, and integration surfaces. Scheduled or autonomous workflows compound risk; cap blast radius in staging first.Computer use controls real desktop apps with per-app session approval—not sandboxed Bash. Review sentinel warnings before approving Terminal, Finder, or System Settings access. Press Esc or Ctrl+C to stop computer use and release the machine-wide lock immediately. Only one Claude Code session can hold the computer-use lock at a time.Autonomous workflows can run shell commands without mid-run user input—scope paths and tools first. Do not enable destructive automation without explicit approval gates. Review outputs as draft until a human validates evidence.
Privacy notesBrowser QA sends page content to the model—avoid customer PII in test flows. Screenshots and DOM snapshots may include session tokens in dev tools—close extras.Reviews may expose integration tokens, customer metadata, and internal URLs related to Agent SDK session storage. Telemetry and analytics configs can include account emails; redact before sharing externally. Keep troubleshooting logs in internal channels unless explicitly sanitized. Third-party vendors remain outside Anthropic retention policies; document separately.Screenshots are downscaled before model upload but may still capture sensitive UI content. Your terminal window is excluded from screenshots per official documentation. Redact customer or proprietary UI details before sharing screenshot evidence externally. Other visible apps are hidden while Claude works; still minimize sensitive windows before starting.Workflow and session output may contain proprietary code and credentials. Summaries for external channels require redaction.

  • Interactive Claude Code session on macOS v2.1.85+ with Pro or Max plan per computer-use docs.
  • computer-use MCP server enabled through /mcp for the project.
  • macOS Accessibility and Screen Recording permissions granted when prompted.
  • Disposable QA target app or simulator without live customer data on screen.
  • Claude Code version and plan eligibility per official documentation.
  • Team policy for autonomous or scheduled workflows.
