Adds skills/openweb — a thin entry-point skill backed by the openweb CLI (npm: @openweb-org/openweb). Returns typed JSON from 90+ real websites across search, shopping, travel, finance, social, news, and dev tools. For sites that need authenticated access, the CLI starts a managed Chrome instance and reuses the user's existing browser session; auth (cookies, JWT, CSRF, request signing, exchange chains) is auto-resolved. Operations are gated by a four-tier permission system (read / write / delete / transact) configurable via $OPENWEB_HOME/config.json. The full skill bundle (workflows, knowledge files, add-site authoring guide) lives at the canonical repo (https://github.com/openweb-org/openweb) and can be installed via the documented one-liner.

Closing this — after digging into how skills.sh actually indexes, I realized it crawls SKILL.md from any GitHub repo via Apologies for the noise on your queue, and thanks for the careful curation work on the official collection — happy to revisit if you ever open up a broader "agent capability" track separate from the Vercel/React focus. |

Summary
openwebCLI which calls the same APIs the websites call internally — no browser automation, no vision API, no LLM-powered HTML parsingSkill Details
openwebWhat it does
OpenWeb gives agents structured JSON access to real websites. Instead of scraping HTML or driving a headless browser, it calls the same internal APIs the website itself uses — the result is fast, cheap, and token-efficient.
For sites that need authenticated access, OpenWeb starts a managed Chrome instance and reuses the user's existing browser session (cookies, JWTs, CSRF tokens, request signing, exchange chains all auto-resolved). The source profile is never modified; the temp snapshot is auto-deleted after 5 min idle.
Operations are gated by a four-tier permission system (
read/write/delete/transact) so destructive or financial actions require user confirmation by default.Coverage today
90+ sites across:
Run
openweb sitesfor the full list. Not listed? The full skill bundle includes anadd-siteworkflow so any site can be added through the agent.Why this fits
The repo already includes agent skills for deployment (
vercel-deploy-claimable), CLI integrations (vercel-cli-with-tokens), and external services (e.g.,clicks-protocolin #211,the-colonyin #220). This adds a web-data-access skill for agents that need typed JSON from real websites — a complementary capability to the existing dev-focused skills.Notes
