Summary
- Connects to your running Chrome instance instead of launching a new one, ideal for JavaScript-heavy sites like Instagram, Twitter, and pages with login walls or lazy-loaded content
- Executes Playwright code in a stateful sandbox with session management, context variables, and utility functions
- Requires reading full documentation via playwriter skill command before use to understand timeout configuration, selector strategies, and common pitfalls
- Use single quotes for -e argument to prevent bash interpretation of special characters in JavaScript code
