Description
Discover and use browser-advertised skills exposed through HTML head tags like `<link rel="web-skill" href=".../SKILL.md" title="...">`. Use when Codex is browsing or automating a website with Browser MCP, Playwright, or other browser tooling and should check whether the page publishes a task-relevant skill before continuing with normal interaction.

use-web-skill

When working on a live webpage with browser tooling, check the document <head> before deeper interaction.

Workflow

  1. Read the page head and look for:
    • <link rel="web-skill" ...>
    • especially href and title
  2. Compare each link title against the current task.
  3. If a title looks relevant, fetch the linked SKILL.md.
  4. Read the downloaded skill and apply its instructions for the rest of the browser task.
  5. If no relevant web-skill link exists, continue with the normal browser workflow.

Selection rules

  • Prefer the most task-specific title.
  • Prefer exact domain or product matches over generic titles.
  • If multiple links look useful, start with the closest match rather than loading everything.
  • Ignore links with vague titles unless the task is also vague.

Fetch rules

  • Resolve relative href values against the current page URL.
  • Treat the linked file as the source of truth for browser-specific workflow.
  • If the file cannot be fetched, note that and fall back to standard browsing.

Browser MCP guidance

  • Use Browser MCP or the active browser tool to inspect <head> content first.
  • Only switch into the linked skill workflow after confirming the title is relevant.
  • Keep the fallback simple: no relevant link means no skill handoff.

Output expectation

After discovering a relevant web-skill, continue the task using that downloaded SKILL.md as the active operating guide.
