brightdata-core-workflow-a
Analyze an approved JavaScript-rendered task through Bright Data Browser API with bounded interaction and evidence. Use when a static request cannot satisfy an authorized public-data workflow and browser rendering is required. Trigger with: "use Bright Data Browser API", "connect Playwright to Bright Data", "collect a rendered public page".
Why this skill is useful
Provides specific commands and patterns for scraping JavaScript-rendered pages using Bright Data's infrastructure that the AI wouldn't reliably generate on its own.

What this skill does
Bright Data Browser API Run Overview Treat Browser API as a remote-browser data plane, not an unlimited browsing identity. Bind one browser zone, a public-target manifest, an interaction ceiling, and a minimal output schema before connecting. Prerequisites A Browser API zone username/password stored in the runtime secret manager An approved public target and interaction manifest Playwright plus the reviewed Bright Data Python SDK or current documented client Instructions Step 1: Approve the task Read the task manifest and Grep for login, account creation, purchase, message, or other prohibited interactions. Refuse any nonpublic or abusive workflow. Step 2: Connect through the SDK Build the connect URL with the official client and keep credentials out of logs. Step 3: Constrain the page Allow only the manifest host set, cap navigation and wall time, block unnecessary assets where appropriate, and extract only named public fields. Do not add evasion behavior after a policy denial. Step 4: Review and close Use Bash(python:) for fixture-backed browser tests. Persist the task ID, target class, field counts, provider errors, and policy decision; discard raw page content unless retention was explicitly approved. Tool Discipline Use Read and Grep to verify the manifest and existing browser adapter. Use Write and Edit for the bounded task, schema, and tests. Use Bash(python:) for offline tests; connecting a live browser still requires the recorded authorization gates. Output A bounded Browser API task manifest Schema-validated public fields and redacted run receipt Explicit close, retry, or policy-escalation result Examples Use Browser API for an approved public page that requires JavaScript to render a price table. Navigate only to allowlisted hosts, extract the three approved fields, close the browser in finally, and reject any redirect to authentication. …
