@browserbasehq/openclaw-browserbase

Browserbase plugin for OpenClaw (with legacy ClawdBot compatibility).

It provides:

• interactive Browserbase credential setup,
• config status/env helpers,
• dynamic skill sync from github:browserbase/skills.

Install

openclaw plugins install @browserbasehq/openclaw-browserbase

For local development:

openclaw plugins install -l .

Setup

openclaw browserbase setup

By default setup will also sync Browserbase skills from browserbase/skills into ~/.openclaw/skills.

You can manage skill sync directly:

openclaw browserbase skills status
openclaw browserbase skills sync
openclaw browserbase skills sync --ref main
openclaw browserbase skills sync --dir ~/.openclaw/skills

Commands

openclaw browserbase setup                     # prompt for API key + project ID
openclaw browserbase status                    # show configuration status
openclaw browserbase status --json             # machine-readable status
openclaw browserbase env --format shell        # export commands
openclaw browserbase env --format dotenv       # dotenv output
openclaw browserbase env --format json         # JSON output
openclaw browserbase where                     # config file path used
openclaw browserbase skills status             # check dynamic skills sync status
openclaw browserbase skills sync               # download/update skills from browserbase/skills

Legacy CLI alias support remains:

clawdbot browserbase setup

Dynamic skills behavior

OpenClaw installs plugins with lifecycle scripts disabled, so plugin install hooks are not a reliable place to fetch remote skill files.

This plugin instead syncs skills during setup and (optionally) on startup when missing:

• browser-automation
• functions
