Auto-generated from
SKILL.md. The skill itself is the source of truth; this is a human-readable map of what it does and how it runs.
What it does & when to use
Launch GStack Browser — AI-controlled Chromium with the sidebar extension baked in. Opens a visible browser window where you can watch every action in real time. The sidebar shows a live activity feed and chat. Anti-bot stealth built in. Use when asked to "open gstack browser", "launch browser", "connect chrome", "open chrome", "real browser", "launch chrome", "side panel", or "control my browser". Voice triggers (speech-to-text aliases): "show me the browser".

How it works
Workflow outline (sections of SKILL.md):
- Preamble (run first)
- Plan Mode Safe Operations
- Skill Invocation During Plan Mode
- Skill routing
- AskUserQuestion Format
- Artifacts Sync (skill start)
- Model-Specific Behavioral Patch (claude)
- Voice
- Context Recovery
- Writing Style (skip entirely if EXPLAIN_LEVEL: terse appears in the preamble echo OR the user's current message explicitly requests terse / no-explanations output)
- Completeness Principle — Boil the Lake
- Confusion Protocol
- Continuous Checkpoint Mode
- Context Health (soft directive)
- Question Tuning (skip entirely if QUESTION_TUNING: false)
- Repo Ownership — See Something, Say Something
- Search Before Building
- Completion Status Protocol
- Operational Self-Improvement
- Telemetry (run last)
- Plan Status Footer
- SETUP (run this check BEFORE any browse command)
- Step 0: Pre-flight cleanup
- Step 1: Connect
- Step 2: Verify
- Step 3: Guide the user to the Side Panel
- Step 4: Demo
- Step 5: Sidebar chat
- Step 6: What's next
Components
Single-file skill — all instructions live in SKILL.md.
Invoke
- Slash:
/open-gstack-browser - Or a natural-language request matching the triggers above.
Source: SKILL.md in this directory.
Execution Logic
The skill executes when its trigger fires (slash command, natural-language match, or direct invocation). It reads its references, applies its rules, and produces the documented outputs.
Edge Cases
See the source skill's references/ and scripts/ folders for edge-case handling.
Failure Handling
A skill failure surfaces as a tool error or a partial output; never a silent skip. Re-run with --verbose (where applicable) for diagnostics.
