Skyvern Browser Automation -- CLI Judgment Procedure

Skyvern uses AI to navigate and interact with websites. Every command below is a runnable skyvern invocation.

Step 1: Classify Your Task (ALWAYS do this first)

Classification	Signal	CLI Command	Cost	What Happens
Quick check (yes/no)	"is the user logged in?"	`skyvern browser validate`	1 LLM + screenshots	Lightweight validation (2 steps max), returns boolean. Cheapest AI option.
Quick inspection	"what does the page show?"	`skyvern browser extract`	1 LLM + screenshots	Dedicated extraction LLM + schema validation + caching.
Single action (known target)	"click #submit"	`skyvern browser click/type`	0 LLM	Deterministic Playwright. No AI. Fastest.
Single action (unknown target)	"click the submit button"	`skyvern browser act`	2-3 LLM, no screenshots	No screenshots in reasoning. Economy a11y tree. For visual targets, use hybrid mode (selector + intent).
Same-page multi-step	"fill the form and submit"	`skyvern browser act` or primitive chain	2-3 LLM or 0 LLM	Use `act` when labels are clear. Use click/type/select directly when you know selectors.
Throwaway autonomous trial	"try this once", "see if this works"	`skyvern browser run-task`	Higher	One-off autonomous agent for exploration. Do not use for recurring or multi-page production automations.
Multi-page or reusable automation	"navigate a multi-page wizard", "set this up", "automate this weekly"	`skyvern workflow create` + `run`	N LLM + screenshots	Build a workflow with one block per step. Each block gets visual reasoning, verification, and reusable run history.

MCP note: if you are using the Skyvern MCP instead of the CLI, prefer observe + execute for same-page multi-step UI work. The CLI does not expose that pair directly.

Step 2: Apply These Decision Rules

If the prompt includes a selector, id, XPath, or exact field target, use browser primitives -- not act.
If you only need a yes/no answer, use validate -- not extract or act.
If the work stays on one page and labels are clear, use act or a primitive chain.
If the user says try this once, see if this works, or clearly wants a one-off exploratory trial, use run-task.
If the task spa
