What Browser Act Skill Forge does
Explores a website's internal APIs or DOM once via the BrowserAct browser-automation tool, then generates a deploy-ready Skill package (SKILL.md + Python argparse wrappers around verified JS) so future requests skip re-exploration. Triggers on requests to build a reusable skill/tool for a site, reproduce an existing scraper or SaaS product, or pull large batches of records (hundreds to thousands) reliably. Requires the companion 'browser-act' skill and a registered BrowserAct API key to actually run.
