 ## Agent skill (progressive disclosure)
 
 Beyond the tools, the plugin publishes the **`browser-skill` agent skill** through the harness's
 official skill seam (`ctx.skills.register`): the catalog entry (name + routing description) is
 resident in `<available_skills>`, and the body is loaded only when the model invokes the `skill`

-repo root — the same file `crates/bsk-cli/build.rs` mirrors for the CLI package; workflows,
-stop-when-done rules, refs usage, sandbox rules). Registration and every pre-step catalog
-snapshot are pure in-memory reads (no disk/process/daemon); compositions without the skill
+tool. Its single source is the DSH-specific `skill/SKILL.md`, which documents only structured
+`browser_*` calls and their plugin semantics. The repository-root CLI skill is intentionally not
+concatenated: its command examples belong to a different execution interface and would bypass
+the plugin's ownership, live observation UI, cancellation, and cleanup path if followed directly.
+The build rejects internal CLI-name leakage, command-line code blocks, unknown browser tools, and
+missing supported browser tools before embedding the Markdown. Registration and every pre-step
+catalog snapshot are pure in-memory reads (no disk/process/daemon); compositions without the skill
 seam degrade silently.

+description: |
+  Use the injected browser_* tools to automate the user's logged-in Chromium
+  browser in a managed Agent Window.
+---
+
+# browser-skill for DeepSeek Harness
+
+Drive the user's real Chromium browser through the structured `browser_*` tools provided by this
+plugin. The browser keeps the user's existing logins and cookies while isolating automation in an
+Agent Window. Use the tool schemas exactly as exposed by DeepSeek Harness; arguments are structured
+fields, not command-line flags.
+
+## Tool availability
+
+Loading this skill reveals the browser tools for the rest of the conversation. If the tools were
+hidden before this skill was loaded, start browser work only after the skill invocation succeeds.
+
+All browser operations must use the injected tools directly. Do not translate the examples in this
+document into terminal commands or invoke another process to control the browser. Direct tool calls
+preserve session ownership, the live observation window, tool cards, cancellation, and cleanup.
+
+## When to use
+
+- Visit and read pages that require the user's existing browser session.
+- Fill forms, select options, click through bounded flows, or smoke-test a web UI.
+- Inspect tabs, page structure, screenshots, console messages, or network metadata.
+- Work with a user tab after explicitly borrowing it into the Agent Window.
+
+Do not use browser automation for tasks that need only local files, a purpose-built API, or an
+explanation. Never extract credentials, cookies, tokens, or other secrets. Do not keep control of a
+personal tab longer than the immediate task requires.
+
+## Mandatory workflow
+
+Every browser task follows this lifecycle:
+
+1. Call `browser_session_start` and retain its returned `sessionId`.
+2. Use that session for every browser operation. Pass `session` explicitly when more than one
+   session exists.
+3. Call `browser_session_stop` when the bounded goal is reached or an error ends the task. Treat
+   cleanup like a `finally` path unless the user explicitly asks to keep the session open.
+
+Conceptual tool-call sequence:
+
+```text
+browser_session_start({ url: "https://example.com" })
+browser_observe({ session: sessionId })
+browser_click({ session: sessionId, target: "@e4" })
+browser_observe({ session: sessionId })
+browser_session_stop({ session: sessionId })
+```
+
+The plugin owns only sessions created by `browser_session_start`. `browser_session_list` reports
+only those owned sessions. Never guess or reuse a session id from another program. When `session`
+is omitted, most tools use the most recently started or used owned session; explicit ids are safer
+for multi-session work.
+
+## Stop when the goal is met
+
+Browser work is a bounded task, not open-ended browsing.
+
+1. Define one observable success condition from the user's request.
+2. Take the shortest path: observe, act, then perform at most one relevant check.
+3. Stop immediately when success is visible. Do not refresh, navigate, click, or perform extra
+   verification after success.
+4. If a human-only step appears, use `browser_request_help`. If an action fails twice without
+   progress, pause instead of brute-forcing.
+5. When uncertain, make at most one fresh observation. If the state is still ambiguous, ask the
+   user rather than continuing to click.
+
+## Core interaction loop
+
+Use `browser_navigate` to open a destination in the active Agent Window tab, then inspect the page
+before interacting:
+
+1. `browser_observe` is the primary semantic view. It returns roles, states, text, and `@eN` refs,
+   including hints about conditional hover or focus surfaces.
+2. `browser_snapshot` is the static accessibility-tree fallback when the semantic view is
+   insufficient or a stricter tree is useful.
+3. Prefer a fresh `@eN` ref over a raw CSS selector for `browser_click`, `browser_hover`,
+   `browser_fill`, `browser_select`, and targeted `browser_press` calls.
+4. Observe again after navigation or a meaningful DOM change before using another ref.
+
+Refs invalidate after navigation and may also become stale after large DOM changes. Never carry a
+ref to a new page. If an observation marks a control as hover-triggered, call `browser_hover` on the
+trigger, observe again, and then act on the newly visible ref.
+
+Use interaction tools according to their schemas:
+
+- `browser_click`: click a ref or selector; optionally choose mouse button and click count.
+- `browser_hover`: move to a ref or selector and allow hover UI to settle; then observe again.
+- `browser_fill`: clear and fill a text-capable element; set `noClear` only when appending is
+  intentional.
+- `browser_select`: pass `values` as an array, including for a single option.
+- `browser_press`: send a key or combo, optionally focusing `target` first.
+
+Actions may trigger a navigation after the action itself returns. Use
+`browser_wait_for_navigation` only when that lifecycle wait is actually needed, then observe the
+new page.
+
+## Observation and page reading priority
+
+Escalate page reading only as needed:
+
+1. `browser_observe` for normal semantic understanding and interaction refs.
+2. `browser_snapshot` for a stricter static accessibility tree.
+3. `browser_get_html` for hidden DOM, metadata, or exact markup that the semantic views cannot
+   provide. A `ref` must come from a fresh observation; keep `maxBytes` bounded.
+4. `browser_screenshot` for layout, styling, canvas, image content, or another genuinely visual
+   question. Pass a fresh `ref` to crop to one element, or omit it for the visible tab.
+
+Do not start with raw HTML or a screenshot merely to discover ordinary controls. Screenshots may
+return an inline image or a saved path depending on the deployment.
+
+## Tabs and the Agent Window boundary
+
+Write actions normally affect only Agent Window tabs.
+
+- `browser_tab_list` lists `agent`, `user`, or `all` tabs visible to the owned session. Use
+  `scope: "user"` to locate a user tab before borrowing it.
+- `browser_tab_create` creates an Agent Window tab. It is active by default; set `active: false`
+  for a background tab.
+- `browser_tab_select` focuses an Agent Window tab.
+- `browser_tab_close` closes an Agent Window tab.
+- `browser_tab_borrow` moves a chosen user tab into the Agent Window before any write action.
+- `browser_tab_return` returns a borrowed tab to its original window and position. Return it as
+  soon as the immediate task is finished; stopping the session is only the fallback cleanup.
+
+Use only a `tabId` returned by `browser_tab_list` or `browser_tab_create`. Do not assume a tab id
+from page position or title.
+
+## Navigation and lifecycle
+
+- `browser_navigate` opens a URL and can wait for a requested lifecycle phase.
+- `browser_navigate_back` and `browser_navigate_forward` move one history entry.
+- `browser_reload` reloads the current tab; use `hard: true` only when bypassing cache is necessary.
+- `browser_wait_for_navigation` waits for a lifecycle event after an action that did not already
+  wait. Avoid speculative waits when no navigation is expected.
+
+After navigation, history traversal, or reload, discard old refs and call `browser_observe` or
+`browser_snapshot` again.
+
+## Ask the user for browser help
+
+Call `browser_request_help` for login, captcha, OTP, payment confirmation, consent, or another step
+that requires the user. Give a clear `prompt`; when the prompt refers to a concrete control, pass
+its fresh ref or selector in `targets` so the overlay can highlight it. Use `title` only when it
+adds clarity.
+
+Optional `completionCriteria` can finish the pause automatically when the page has an explicit,
+stable success signal. It supports `any` or `all` conditions using `urlContains`, `urlMatches`,
+`selectorExists`, `selectorMissing`, `textExists`, or `textMissing`, plus `stableForMs`.
+
+```text
+browser_request_help({
+  session: sessionId,
+  title: "Sign in required",
+  prompt: "Complete sign-in, then return control after the account page appears.",
+  targets: ["@e7"],
+  timeoutMs: 300000,
+  completionCriteria: {
+    any: [{ urlContains: "/account" }, { selectorExists: "[data-testid='account-menu']" }],
+    stableForMs: 1000
+  }
+})
+```
+
+Interpret outcomes deliberately:
+
+- `continued` or `completed`: the user returned control or the explicit detector matched. Observe
+  again before reasoning about the new state or using refs.
+- `cancelled`: stop the requested flow.
+- `timed_out`: report the timeout; do not repeatedly reopen the prompt.
+- `disabled`: unattended mode does not allow help; proceed only if safe or stop gracefully.
+- `navigated`: legacy outcome; do not treat navigation alone as proof of success.
+
+## Debugging without page scripting
+
+Use the read-only debugging tools only when relevant to the user's task:
+
+- `browser_console` reads buffered console messages, browser logs, and JavaScript exceptions.
+  Set `includeStack: true` when stack frames are useful.
+- `browser_network` reads buffered response and failure metadata. It does not return request or
+  response headers or bodies and does not modify traffic.
+
+Both tools accept `tabId`, `since`, `limit`, and `maxTextChars`. Their result returns `nextSince`;
+pass that value as the next `since` cursor instead of repeatedly requesting the same entries.
+
+Arbitrary page script evaluation and interaction recording are intentionally unsupported in this
+DeepSeek Harness plugin. Do not invent tool names or route around this limitation. If the task
+strictly requires either capability, explain that it is not available in this phase.
+
+## Window and device controls
+
+- `browser_window_resize` changes the Agent Window's outer `width` and `height`; each dimension
+  must be from 100 through 7680 CSS pixels.
+- `browser_emulate` applies a built-in device preset or explicit viewport settings to the active
+  tab. Explicit `width` and `height` must be supplied together. `mobile: true` also requires both
+  dimensions. Use `off: true` alone to clear emulation. Emulation is per-tab and new tabs do not
+  inherit it.
+
+## Tool reference
+
+### Sessions
+
+| Tool | Purpose |
+| --- | --- |
+| `browser_session_start` | Start an owned Agent Window session, optionally with URL, size, browser instance, focus behavior, or device preset. |
+| `browser_session_stop` | Stop an owned session and close its Agent Window. |
+| `browser_session_list` | List owned sessions and identify the current one. |
+
+### Navigation and reading
+
+| Tool | Purpose |
+| --- | --- |
+| `browser_navigate` | Navigate the active tab to a URL. |
+| `browser_navigate_back` | Go back one history entry. |
+| `browser_navigate_forward` | Go forward one history entry. |
+| `browser_reload` | Reload the active tab, optionally bypassing cache. |
+| `browser_wait_for_navigation` | Wait for an expected page lifecycle event. |
+| `browser_observe` | Read the primary semantic page representation with refs. |
+| `browser_snapshot` | Read the static accessibility-tree fallback with refs. |
+| `browser_get_html` | Read raw document or ref-scoped HTML as a last resort. |
+| `browser_screenshot` | Capture the visible tab or a ref-cropped element. |
+
+### Interaction
+
+| Tool | Purpose |
+| --- | --- |
+| `browser_click` | Click a ref or CSS selector. |
+| `browser_hover` | Hover a ref or selector to reveal conditional UI. |
+| `browser_fill` | Fill a text-capable element. |
+| `browser_select` | Select one or more option values. |
+| `browser_press` | Send a keyboard key or combo. |
+
+### Tabs
+
+| Tool | Purpose |
+| --- | --- |
+| `browser_tab_list` | List visible user and Agent Window tabs. |
+| `browser_tab_create` | Create an Agent Window tab. |
+| `browser_tab_select` | Focus an Agent Window tab. |
+| `browser_tab_close` | Close an Agent Window tab. |
+| `browser_tab_borrow` | Move a user tab into the Agent Window. |
+| `browser_tab_return` | Return a borrowed tab to its original window. |
+
+### Assistance, diagnostics, and display
+
+| Tool | Purpose |
+| --- | --- |
+| `browser_request_help` | Pause for an explicit user browser step. |
+| `browser_console` | Read buffered console and exception entries. |
+| `browser_network` | Read buffered response and failure metadata. |
+| `browser_window_resize` | Resize the Agent Window. |
+| `browser_emulate` | Apply or clear per-tab device emulation. |
+
+## Error handling and final checklist
+
+On a stale ref, observe again and retry once with a fresh ref. On a closed or unknown tab, list
+tabs instead of guessing. On an unknown session, list owned sessions or start a new one; never try
+foreign ids. On timeout, decide whether one longer, purposeful wait is justified. Avoid repeated
+actions with unchanged state.
+
+Before finishing a browser task, verify that:
+
+- The user's observable goal is met, or the blocker is clearly reported.
+- Any borrowed tab has been returned when practical.
+- The owned session has been stopped unless the user explicitly asked to keep it open.
+- No further page action is taken after success.

-## DSH tool-routing requirement (highest priority)
-
-This skill is running inside DeepSeek Harness, where the plugin has injected
-structured `browser_*` model tools. **Always call those injected `browser_*` tools
-for browser work. Never use `bash`, `shell`, `exec`, or another tool to invoke the
-`bsk` CLI directly.** The CLI command names shown below are only conceptual
-mappings for understanding the tools; they are not instructions to run commands.
-If a `browser_*` tool is available, using the CLI directly is incorrect because it
-bypasses plugin session ownership, observation UI, tool cards, and cleanup.
-
-Use the injected tool whose name matches the operation, for example:
-`browser_session_start`, `browser_navigate`, `browser_observe`, `browser_snapshot`,
-`browser_click`, `browser_fill`, `browser_press`, `browser_screenshot`, and
-`browser_session_stop`. Pass arguments as the tool schema specifies (not CLI flags).
-
-Drive the user's **real Chromium browser** (logins, cookies, Agent Window isolation)
-through this plugin's `browser_*` tools. Each injected tool is implemented by the
-plugin using the `bsk` engine internally — the model must not invoke that engine
-itself. The workflow, judgment rules, and safety constraints remain identical to
-the canonical CLI skill.
-
-> **Tool availability**: invoking this skill (which you just did) makes the plugin's
-> `browser_*` tools available for the rest of the session — they are injected on
-> successful skill load. Until then they are deliberately hidden, so do not attempt
-> a browser action before loading this skill.
-
-## Tool ↔ CLI map
-
-The tools below are thin, structured wrappers over the bsk CLI verbs of the same
-name; `session` parameters take the 4-letter session id (no `--session` flag
-spelling here):
-
-| dsh tool | bsk equivalent |
-|---|---|
-| `browser_session_start` / `browser_session_stop` / `browser_session_list` | `bsk session start/stop/list` |
-| `browser_navigate` | `bsk navigate` |
-| `browser_snapshot` / `browser_observe` | `bsk snapshot` / `bsk observe` |
-| `browser_click` / `browser_fill` / `browser_press` | `bsk click` / `bsk fill` / `bsk press` |
-| `browser_screenshot` | `bsk screenshot` |
-| `browser_emulate` | `bsk emulate` |
-
-(`bsk console` / `bsk network` have no tool counterpart in this plugin yet.)
-
-Plugin-specific semantics that override or narrow the CLI rules below:
-
-- **Owned sessions only**: this plugin sees and acts on just the sessions IT
-  started via `browser_session_start`. `browser_session_list` shows only those
-  (with the current marker); passing a session id created by another program
-  (or person) sharing the bsk daemon is refused outright — never retry those
-  with the same id.
-- **Current session**: omitted `session` parameters resolve to the most
-  recently started or used OWNED session. With several sessions in flight,
-  pass `session` explicitly to avoid surprises.
-- **Screenshots**: when the model route accepts images, `browser_screenshot`
-  returns the PNG inline as an image attachment; otherwise it returns the
-  saved file path.
-- **`browser_emulate mobile`**: requires `width`+`height` — the bsk daemon
-  refuses `--mobile` without viewport dimensions.
-- **Live observation**: in the dsh Web UI, every owned session is watched by
-  the floating overlay (thumbnails, action, interrupt) — observational side
-  traffic is free and never steals your command turn; just keep acting.
-
-The canonical CLI skill body follows verbatim (source of truth: `skill/SKILL.md`
-in the BrowserSkill repo, mirrored by build into `crates/bsk-cli/skill/SKILL.md`).
-Read `bsk <verb> --session <id>` as "the `browser_<verb>` tool with
-`session: <id>`"; everything else — when to use, the stop-when-done rules, the
-interaction loop, refs, sandbox rules — applies unchanged.
