# Kiwi for Playwright

Have the agent on a Kiwi step drive a browser through Playwright MCP to check a change in the running app and capture what it saw.

- Your agent works in Playwright through its own connection. Kiwi does not call Playwright and never holds its credentials.
- A workflow skill can list Playwright among the tools it requires. When you supply your agent's available tools to a skill check and Playwright is not among them, the check reports `SK15-UNSUPPORTED-TOOL`.
- A project Admin can add links to Playwright, with notes, under Connections and bind them to the steps that use them. The agent reads them with `list_connections`.
- The agent can report the tools and plugins it ran with, including its Playwright connection, with `report_configuration`.
- The agent submits links to its work in Playwright as the step's outputs. People review them, and sign-off stays with the people your workflow names.

## What your agent can do in Playwright

- Navigate pages and act on elements from accessibility snapshots rather than screenshots.
- Click, type and fill forms, then verify that the expected elements and text are visible.
- Read console messages and network requests to explain a failure.
- Take screenshots, save a page as PDF, and record traces or video when they are enabled.
- Generate locators for elements so the agent can write a Playwright test.

## Set up

### 1. Connect your agent to Kiwi

Add Kiwi's hosted MCP server, `https://kiwiflow.io/mcp`, to your coding agent.

- [Coding agents](https://kiwiflow.io/integrations#agent)
- [Quickstart](https://docs.kiwiflow.io/quickstart#connect-your-agent)

### 2. Connect your agent to Playwright

Run the Playwright MCP server where your agent runs. The credentials stay with your agent.

```
npx @playwright/mcp@latest
```

### 3. Example skill

Publish instructions like these as a workflow skill that lists Playwright among its required tools.

```
Start from the preview URL and the user flow named in the assignment.
Use Playwright MCP to walk the flow and verify each expected element.
Save a screenshot of each checked state and note any console errors.
Submit the screenshots and a pass or fail note per state as outputs.
If the preview does not load, stop and report a blocker to the step owner;
the assigned reviewer decides whether the flow is ready.
```
