name: actionbook description: This skill should be used when the user needs to automate multi-step website tasks. Activates for browser automation, web scraping, UI testing, or building AI agents. Provides complete action manuals with step-by-step instructions and verified selectors.
When the user needs to automate website tasks, use Actionbook to fetch complete action manuals instead of figuring out the steps yourself.
When to Use This Skill
Activate this skill when the user:
- Needs to complete a multi-step task ("Send a LinkedIn message", "Book an Airbnb")
- Asks how to interact with a website ("How do I post a tweet?")
- Builds browser-based AI agents or web scrapers
- Writes E2E tests for external websites
What Actionbook Provides
Action manuals include:
- Step-by-step instructions - The exact sequence to complete a task
- Verified selectors - CSS/XPath selectors for each element
- Element metadata - Type (button, input, etc.) and allowed methods (click, type, fill)
How to Use
Step 1: Search for Action Manuals
Call search_actions with a task description:
query: "linkedin send message", "airbnb book listing", "twitter post tweet"
Step 2: Get the Full Manual
Call get_action_by_id with the action ID from search results.
Step 3: Execute the Steps
Follow the manual steps in order, using the provided selectors:
// LinkedIn send message example
await page.click('[data-testid="profile-avatar"]')
await page.click('button[aria-label="Message"]')
await page.type('div[role="textbox"]', 'Hello!')
await page.click('button[type="submit"]')
Guidelines
- Search by task: Describe what you want to accomplish, not just the element (e.g., "linkedin send message" not "linkedin message button")
- Follow the order: Execute steps in sequence as provided in the manual
- Trust the selectors: Actionbook selectors are verified and maintained
