Web Automation with Camoufox (Claude Code)

Automated web browsing and scraping using Playwright with Camoufox anti-detection browser.

Requirements

  • Node.js 20+
  • pnpm
  • Network access to download browser binaries

First-Time Setup

cd ~/.claude/skills/web-automation/scripts
pnpm install
npx camoufox-js fetch

Prerequisite Check (MANDATORY)

Before running any automation, verify Playwright + Camoufox dependencies are installed and scripts are configured to use Camoufox.

cd ~/.claude/skills/web-automation/scripts
node -e "require.resolve('playwright-core/package.json');require.resolve('camoufox-js/package.json');console.log('OK: playwright-core + camoufox-js installed')"
node -e "const fs=require('fs');const t=fs.readFileSync('browse.ts','utf8');if(!/camoufox-js/.test(t)){throw new Error('browse.ts is not configured for Camoufox')}console.log('OK: Camoufox integration detected in browse.ts')"

If any check fails, stop and return:

"Missing dependency/config: web-automation requires playwright-core + camoufox-js and Camoufox-based scripts. Run setup in this skill, then retry."

Quick Reference

  • Browse page: npx tsx browse.ts --url "https://example.com"
  • Scrape markdown: npx tsx scrape.ts --url "https://example.com" --mode main --output page.md
  • Authenticate: npx tsx auth.ts --url "https://example.com/login"

Notes

  • Sessions persist in Camoufox profile storage.
  • Use --wait for dynamic pages.
  • Use --mode selector --selector "..." for targeted extraction.
