aiskillstore/firefox-browser
Control the user's Firefox browser with their logins and cookies intact. Use when you need to browse websites as the user, interact with authenticated pages, fill forms, click buttons, take screenshots, or get page content. (user)

Control the user's actual Firefox browser session via WebSocket. This uses their real browser with existing logins and cookies - not a headless browser.

The type and fillForm actions automatically handle rich text editors (ProseMirror, Lexical/Reddit, Draft.js, Tiptap, Slate, CKEditor, Quill). They use document.execCommand("insertText") in the page world, which works with any contenteditable-based editor.
# Works on any rich text editor — ProseMirror, Lexical, etc.
browser type '{"selector": "div[contenteditable=true]", "text": "Hello world!"}'
# Response includes richEditor: true when execCommand path was used
# Clear existing content and replace
browser type '{"selector": ".ProseMirror", "text": "New content", "clear": true}'
# Fill multiple rich text fields in a form
browser fillForm '{"fields": [
{"selector": "#title", "value": "My Title"},
{"selector": "#body .ProseMirror", "value": "Article body text"}
]}'
No special handling needed — just use type or fillForm as normal. Falls back to textContent assignment if execCommand isn't available.
browser listTabs '{}'
Returns:
{
"activeTabId": 123,
"windows": [
{
"windowId": 1,
"focused": true,
"tabs": [
{"tabId": 123, "url": "https://...", "title": "...", "active": true}
]
}
],
"totalTabs": 5
}
# Start fresh in a tab
browser newSession '{"url": "https://amazon.com"}'
# Start fresh in a new normal window
browser newWindow '{"url": "https://example.com"}'
# Or switch to existing tab
browser setActiveTab '{"tabId": 456}'
browser getContent '{"format": "annotated"}'
Returns content with interactive elements marked inline:
Product Name Here
$4.99
[button: "Add to cart" | selector: #add-btn]
[input:text: "search" | value: "" | selector: #search-box]
[link: "View details" | href: /product/123 | selector: a.details-link]
This shows what's clickable and where it is in context.
# Click using selector from annotated output
browser click '{"selector": "#add-btn"}'
# Or by text (prefers visible elements)
browser click '{"text": "Add to cart"}'
# Type into input
browser type '{"selector": "#search-box", "text": "query", "submit": true}'
When you're not sure which path is right, fork the tab and try both:
# Create forks
browser fork '{
"paths": [
{
"name": "google-auth",
"commands": [{"action": "click", "params": {"text": "Sign in with Google"}}]
},
{
"name": "email-auth",
"commands": [{"action": "click", "params": {"text": "Sign in with Email"}}]
}
]
}'
Returns:
{
"forked": true,
"sourceTabId": 123,
"forks": [
{"name": "google-auth", "tabId": 456, "url": "...", "commandResults": [...]},
{"name": "email-auth", "tabId": 789, "url": "...", "commandResults": [...]}
]
}
Work on specific fork:
browser getContent '{"format": "annotated", "fork": "google-auth"}'
browser click '{"text": "Continue", "fork": "google-auth"}'
Kill the wrong path:
browser killFork '{"fork": "email-auth"}'
When the exact button varies (cookie banners, A/B tests):
browser tryUntil '{
"alternatives": [
{"action": "click", "params": {"selector": "#accept-cookies"}},
{"action": "click", "params": {"text": "Accept All"}},
{"action": "click", "params": {"selector": ".cookie-dismiss"}}
],
"timeout": 3000
}'
Tries each until one succeeds.
Compare prices across sites:
browser parallel '{
"branches": [
{"url": "https://amazon.com/product", "commands": [{"action": "getContent", "params": {"format": "text"}}]},
{"url": "https://walmart.com/product", "commands": [{"action": "getContent", "params": {"format": "text"}}]}
]
}'
The bridge integrates with a Bitwarden vault (via bronzewarden) for fully autonomous credential fill. No human interaction needed.
# 1. Navigate to the site
browser navigate '{"url": "https://github.com"}'
# 2. Auto-fill credentials (looks up domain in vault, fills form)
browser autoLogin '{"domain": "github.com", "submit": false}'
# Returns: {"filled": true, "maskedUsername": "j***1", "matchedUri": "https://github.com/"}
# 3. Or auto-fill AND submit in one step
browser autoLogin '{"domain": "github.com", "submit": true}'
# Check vault status
browser vaultStatus '{}'
# Returns: {"locked": false, "entries": 322}
# Re-sync vault from server (if credentials were updated)
browser vaultSync '{}'
# Returns: {"synced": true, "entries": 322}
autoLogin action sends credentials directly to the extension via the native messaging channel (never over WebSocket)# Detect login pages and available accounts
browser getAuthContext '{}'
Execute arbitrary JavaScript in the page context and get the result back:
# Get page title
browser evaluate '{"script": "return document.title"}'
# Returns: {"result": "My Page Title", "type": "string"}
# Count elements
browser evaluate '{"script": "return document.querySelectorAll(\"input\").length"}'
# Returns: {"result": 5, "type": "number"}
# Get form values
browser evaluate '{"script": "return document.querySelector(\"#email\").value"}'
# Returns: {"result": "[email protected]", "type": "string"}
# Complex queries
browser evaluate '{"script": "return Array.from(document.querySelectorAll(\"input:checked\")).map(el => el.value)"}'
# Returns: {"result": ["option1", "option3"], "type": "object"}
By default, evaluate runs in the content script's isolated world. To access page-level JavaScript variables (e.g., framework state, global objects set by the page), use pageWorld: true:
# Access page-level globals (React state, editor instances, app data)
browser evaluate '{"script": "return window.__NEXT_DATA__", "pageWorld": true}'
# Interact with ProseMirror/Lexical internals
browser evaluate '{"script": "return Object.keys(window.__prosemirrorViews || {})", "pageWorld": true}'
# Call page-level functions
browser evaluate '{"script": "return window.myApp.getState()", "pageWorld": true}'
Note: Use return to get a value back. The script runs with full DOM access. Use pageWorld: true when you need to access variables set by the page's own JavaScript.
Scroll the page by pixels, to elements, or to positions:
# Scroll down 500 pixels
browser scroll '{"y": 500}'
# Scroll up 300 pixels
browser scroll '{"y": -300}'
# Scroll element into view
browser scroll '{"selector": "#section-5"}'
# Scroll to top/bottom
browser scroll '{"position": "top"}'
browser scroll '{"position": "bottom"}'
# Smooth scrolling
browser scroll '{"y": 500, "behavior": "smooth"}'
# Scroll to absolute position
browser scroll '{"scrollTo": {"x": 0, "y": 1000}}'
The getContent annotated format now shows form element states:
browser getContent '{"format": "annotated"}'
Output includes checked/selected states:
[input:radio: "Option A" | checked: true | selector: #opt-a]
[input:radio: "Option B" | checked: false | selector: #opt-b]
[input:checkbox: "Remember me" | checked: true | selector: #remember]
[select: "Country" | selected: "United States" | selector: #country]
[input:text: "Email" | value: "[email protected]" | selector: #email]
This is useful for verifying form state without screenshots.
When running multiple tasks in parallel, use tabId to avoid conflicts:
# 1. Create isolated session - get a unique tabId
browser newSession '{"url": "https://example.com"}'
# Returns: {"tabId": 15, "url": "...", "windowId": 1}
# 2. Use that tabId in ALL subsequent commands
browser navigate '{"url": "https://example.com/page", "tabId": 15}'
browser getContent '{"format": "annotated", "tabId": 15}'
browser click '{"selector": "#btn", "tabId": 15}'
browser type '{"selector": "#input", "text": "hello", "tabId": 15}'
This lets multiple agents work in parallel without stepping on each other.
