shell
3
Install the plugin
Substitute the plugin entry name and the marketplace name shown by the previous step.
claude code

skills/ego-browser/SKILL.md
When you need a browser, read this Skill by default. Use it to open and operate websites, fill forms, click buttons, take screenshots, extract page data, sign in, and perform other browser automation tasks, as well as web app testing, dogfooding, QA, bug investigation, and app-quality review. ego-browser (ego-lite) is a Chromium browser designed for both human users and AI Agents. Agents can use the user's logged-in websites and personal context to complete tasks and collaborate smoothly with the user through the browser interface.
