Install

Claude.ai (Easiest — No Install)

Add the MCP connector and install the skill for the best experience:

Go to Customize → Connectors → "Add custom connector"
Paste: https://demo.cbrowser.ai/mcp
Download the CBrowser Skill (.skill)
Go to Customize → Skills → Upload the zip
Start a new conversation and test your site

Note: The Claude.ai skill is a lightweight knowledge file that gives Claude context about CBrowser tools, pricing, and workflows. It works alongside the MCP connector. This is different from the Claude Code skill below, which is a full CLI integration.

Claude Code Skill (CLI)

For Claude Code terminal users — not for Claude.ai web:

curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/alexandriashai/cbrowser/main/scripts/install-skill.sh | bash
npm install -g cbrowser && npx playwright install

Then add to ~/.claude/skills/skill-index.json:

{"CBrowser": "~/.claude/skills/CBrowser/SKILL.md"}

See Claude-Skill-Installation for full guide.

What ONLY CBrowser Does

No other browser automation tool has these capabilities:

Capability	What It Does	Why It Matters
Cognitive User Simulation	AI simulates how users think: patience, frustration, confusion	Test if real humans can use your site, not just if buttons click
Abandonment Detection	Automatically detects when users would give up	Find UX friction before losing customers
Site Knowledge Learning	Builds a knowledge graph per site: navigation maps, element reliability, goal paths	Each visit is better than the last. Gets smarter over time.
Page Understanding	Real-time page model: page type, interactive elements, forms, navigation	AI knows what each element does before clicking it
Constitutional Safety	Risk zones (Green/Yellow/Red/Black) prevent harmful actions	Safe to run AI agents unsupervised
Chaos Engineering	Inject failures: slow networks, timeouts, failed assets	Test error handling before real incidents
Autonomous Bug Hunting	AI explores your site and reports issues on its own	Finds bugs you didn't know to look for
**[[26 Cognitive Traits	Trait-Index]]**	patience, riskTolerance, selfEfficacy, siteFamiliarity, trustCalibration + 21 more
21 Research-Backed Personas	6 cognitive + 11 accessibility + 4 emotional personas	Each cites peer-reviewed HCI research with spectrum notes
siteFamiliarity Gating	Persona site knowledge scales to actual data available	Power-users on unknown sites are auto-downgraded to first-timers
