Browser Record

Primitive on which every other browser skill composes. Opens a named browser session, allocates an RVF container for it, and binds every action to a ruvector trajectory step. You do not run a browser session in this plugin without invoking this skill (or one that wraps it).

When to use

  • Starting any browser interaction that is not a one-off throwaway probe.
  • Exploring a site interactively while preserving the trace for later replay or analysis.
  • Establishing a reusable session that downstream skills (
    browser-extract
    ,
    browser-form-fill
    ,
    browser-test
    ) will compose.

Steps

  1. Allocate session id and RVF container:
    bash
    SID="$(date +%Y%m%d-%H%M%S)-${TASK_SLUG:-record}"
    npx -y ruvector@0.2.25 rvf create "$SID.rvf" --kind browser-session
    npx -y ruvector@0.2.25 hooks trajectory-begin --session-id "$SID" --task "$1"
  2. Open the browser via
    mcp__claude-flow__browser_open
    with the URL.
  3. Snapshot the initial state:
    browser_snapshot
    for the accessibility tree,
    browser_screenshot
    for a baseline image.
  4. For each interaction, record a trajectory step before and after:
    bash
    npx -y ruvector@0.2.25 hooks trajectory-step \
      --session-id "$SID" --action click --args '{"selector":"#login"}' --result ok
  5. End cleanly:
    bash
    npx -y ruvector@0.2.25 hooks trajectory-end --session-id "$SID" --verdict pass
    npx -y ruvector@0.2.25 rvf compact "$SID.rvf"
  6. Index in AgentDB under
    browser-sessions
    :
    bash
    npx -y @claude-flow/cli@latest memory store --namespace browser-sessions \
      --key "$SID" --value "{rvf_id:$SID,host:...,task:...,verdict:pass}"

Caveats

  • Until the
    browser_session_record
    MCP tool ships (ADR-0001 §7), this skill drives the lifecycle from inside its own bash steps. Do not call
    mcp__claude-flow__browser_open
    directly without these wrappers.
  • The session id format is fixed:
    <YYYYMMDD-HHMMSS>-<task-slug>
    . Downstream
    /ruflo-browser ls
    parses this.
  • --with-dom
    is expensive (full HTML dump per nav). Off by default.
  • AIDefence gates apply at extraction time, not at navigation time.
    browser-record
    is a primitive; redaction is the responsibility of skills that read content (
    browser-extract
    ,
    browser-test
    ).
