Top Browser & Web Automation Skills for Cursor

For scraping and browser control from Cursor, pick by whether you need a browser at all: firecrawl for hosted, JavaScript-rendered extraction across many pages, and browser-use or playwright-skill when the task requires logging in, filling forms, or clicking through a flow a fetch-based scraper cannot reach. Valyu covers the case where you want cited source data rather than raw HTML.

FAQ

Common questions

Which of these need an API key before they do anything?

The hosted ones — firecrawl and Valyu — are API-backed and need a key and a budget. browser-use and playwright-skill drive a local browser and need no account, which also means the rate limiting and anti-bot handling are your problem rather than a vendor's.

How many browser automation skills work with Cursor?

6 of the 12 skills catalogued in Browser & Web Automation are verified working on Cursor. The remaining 6 are either untested on this agent or depend on capabilities it does not provide — they are listed below rather than hidden.

How do I install a browser automation skill on Cursor?
