What is browser-cash?
browser-cash is a specialized skill designed for developers who need to perform web automation without the headache of anti-bot protections. By integrating with the Browser.cash API, this skill allows users to launch real browser sessions that bypass sophisticated defenses such as Cloudflare, DataDome, and PerimeterX.
As part of the ecosystem of Openclaw Skills, browser-cash provides a high-fidelity browser fingerprint that appears as a genuine user rather than a headless bot. This makes it an essential tool for high-success rate web scraping, automated testing, and interaction with production environments that typically block standard automation tools.
browser-cash Use Cases
- Scraping data from websites protected by Cloudflare, DataDome, or PerimeterX.
- Automated form filling and workflow testing on complex, protected web applications.
- Capturing high-resolution screenshots of dynamic web content that requires specific geographic targeting.
- Maintaining persistent user sessions and login states across multiple automation runs using named profiles.
How browser-cash Works
- The skill retrieves the required API key from the local configuration managed by Openclaw Skills.
- It sends a request to the Browser.cash API to initialize a new browser session, optionally specifying geographic location and window dimensions.
- The API returns a unique WebSocket CDP (Chrome DevTools Protocol) URL for the remote browser instance.
- The automation script (using Playwright or Puppeteer) connects directly to this CDP URL via a local node execution block.
- Once the automated task is completed, the skill sends a request to terminate the session and release resources.
browser-cash Setup
To begin using browser-cash, you must first configure your API key obtained from the Browser.cash dashboard.
clawdbot config set skills.entries.browser-cash.apiKey "your_key_here"
Additionally, ensure that the necessary Node.js dependencies are installed in your environment to support Playwright and Puppeteer interactions:
if [ ! -d ~/clawd/node_modules/playwright ]; then
cd ~/clawd && npm install playwright puppeteer-core
fi
browser-cash Data Schema & Taxonomy
The skill manages browser sessions and persistent profiles. The session metadata is structured as follows:
| Attribute | Description |
|---|---|
sessionId |
The unique identifier for the active browser session. |
cdpUrl |
The WebSocket endpoint used to connect automation libraries to the browser. |
status |
The current lifecycle state (starting, active, completed, or error). |
country |
The ISO code for the geographic location of the browser instance. |
profile |
Settings for session persistence, allowing cookies and storage to be saved across runs. |
browser-cash Advanced Features
- Geographic Targeting: Choose from various countries (e.g., US, DE, GB) to bypass regional restrictions or view localized content.
- Persistent Browser Profiles: Save and reuse cookies, localStorage, and session data to maintain logged-in states.
- Direct CDP Integration: Full access to the Chrome DevTools Protocol for low-level browser control beyond standard library capabilities.
- Automated Bot Bypass: Native handling of bot detection systems, ensuring your Openclaw Skills scripts remain unblocked.
