SkillWeb & browsing

This skill gives your AI control over the Edge browser on your computer. Once added, your AI can open and read web pages, fill in forms, and take screenshots, so routine browsing tasks get handled for you.

Add the skill, then ask your AI to do something in Edge, like open a website, pull information from a page, or complete a form for you.

  • Navigate to web pages and scroll through them
  • Extract page text or HTML so the AI can read web content
  • Click elements, type text, and fill in web forms
