## What webengine-web does, in the publisher's words

Interactive gate between coding agents and a live browser. Bundles skills + MCP server for VS Code/Copilot (Agent Plugins 1.0) and Codex in one folder.

Prerequisite (both agents):.NET 10 + package on NuGet (dnx AxaFrance.WebEngine.Mcp...). Publish it once: dotnet pack src/AxaFrance.WebEngine.Mcp -c Release then dotnet nuget push *.nupkg --source https://api.nuget.org/v3/index.json --api-key.

- Chat: Install Plugin From Source → paste https://github.com/AxaFrance/webengine-dotnet (or add marketplace AxaFrance/webengine-dotnet via chat.plugins.marketplaces, or register a local clone via chat.pluginLocations).
- Enable the plugin; its MCP server starts automatically (no separate trust prompt).
- Verify: webengine-web in MCP: List Servers, skills in Chat: Configure Skills.

Without plugin install (manual): copy skills/webengine-web (+ skills/webengine-scaffold) to.github/skills/, and mcp.json content into.vscode/mcp.json.

- copy skills/ to ~/.codex/skills/. This repo also ships.agents/plugins/marketplace.json for repo-scoped installs.

## Skills

- webengine-scaffold: Scaffold a UI automation solution with WebEngine (C#) or a generic stack. Use when the user asks to create a test project, choose gherkin/unit/keyword/data-driven, install packages, or structure PageModels/Actions/TestCases.
- webengine-web: Inspect and interact with live web pages via WebEngine MCP (Selenium). Use when the user asks to observe a browser, click/type/select, debug a page, or generate web UI code (Playwright TS, Selenium C#/Java/Python, WebEngine C#).

Descriptions come from the frontmatter of each SKILL.md, punctuation lightly normalized.

## MCP servers

- webengine-web: transport: stdio; command: dnx AxaFrance.WebEngine.Mcp --profile web --transport stdio

Read from the plugin's own mcp.json. Environment variable names only, never values.
