Documentation reference for using Browser Use Cloud — the hosted API and SDK for browser automation. Use this skill whenever the user needs help with the Cloud REST API (v2, v3, or v4), browser-use-sdk (Python or TypeScript), X-Browser-Use-API-Key authentication, cloud sessions, browser profiles, profile sync, CDP WebSocket connections, stealth browsers, residential proxies, CAPTCHA handling, webhooks, workspaces, skills marketplace, liveUrl streaming, pricing, or integration patterns (chat UI, subagent, adding browser tools to existing agents). Also trigger for questions about n8n/Make/Zapier integration, Playwright/ Puppeteer/Selenium on cloud infrastructure, or 1Password vault integration. Do NOT use this for the open-source Python library (Agent, Browser, Tools config) — use the open-source skill instead.

  • Markdown instructions

    A SKILL.md file the model loads on demand, so it only costs tokens when a request actually matches.

  • Works with any LLM

    AI skills are plain Markdown, not provider-specific code, so this works with GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, or a local model.

  • 11 bundled files

    Scripts, templates, and references the model can read while it works. Files are read-only and never executed.

  • Open source

    Published by browser-use on GitHub. Read the source before you install it.

Installation

Install the Cloud AI skill in TypingMind to use it with any LLM, or drop it into another agent that reads SKILL.md.

1

Install in TypingMind

TypingMind installs a skill straight from its GitHub folder — it reads SKILL.md, bundles the resource files, and stores the result locally.

  1. Open the app and go to Plugins → Skills.
  2. Choose "Install from GitHub".
  3. Paste the skill folder URL below and confirm.
    https://github.com/browser-use/browser-use/tree/main/skills/cloud
  4. Enable the skill in any chat where you want it available.
Plugins → Skills → Add skill → From GitHub URL, then paste the folder URL and press Continue.
2

Install in another agent

Any agent that reads the Agent Skills format can use this skill — copy the folder into that agent's skills directory.

Claude Code — .claude/skills
git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/browser-use/browser-use.git /tmp/browser-use
mkdir -p .claude/skills
cp -r /tmp/browser-use/skills/cloud .claude/skills/cloud
Restart Claude Code after copying so it picks up the new skill.

Use it in TypingMind

Enable Cloud in any TypingMind chat and the model takes it from there. Its name and description sit in the system prompt, and the moment a request matches, the model loads the full instructions itself — you never invoke it by hand, and it costs no tokens until it is actually used.

The model loads Cloud on its own as soon as a request matches it.

Works with any AI model

AI skills are plain Markdown instructions rather than provider-specific code, so Cloud is not tied to the model it was written for. Install it once in TypingMind and use it with GPT-5, Claude, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek, Mistral, Llama, or a local model you run yourself — all on your own API keys.

  • Loaded only when it is needed

    The system prompt carries just the name and description. The instructions are fetched on the first matching request, so an idle skill costs nothing.

  • Switch models mid-chat

    Because the skill is instructions rather than code, changing model does not break it — the next model reads the same SKILL.md.

Skill instructions

This is the SKILL.md content the model loads. Read it before installing — a skill is instructions your model will follow.

Browser Use Cloud Reference

Reference docs for the Cloud REST API, SDKs, and integration patterns. Read the relevant file based on what the user needs.

Choose a starter

  • Hosted task in, result out: use the V4 SDK runs resource in references/api-v4.md.
  • Your existing agent needs a browser: use the V4 SDK browsers resource or REST/CDP, then explicitly stop the browser.
  • Local framework development: use the open-source browser-use skill, not Cloud SDK calls.

Eligible new Google, GitHub or Microsoft signups get a one-time $15 Cloud credit. No card required; email/password signups do not qualify. Pricing and eligibility. Use gpt-5.6-luna for the free starter; paid-only models need a top-up.

Reuse BROWSER_USE_API_KEY, or guide the user through Cloud signup and key creation. Keep keys server-side, never in prompts or client bundles.

Critical Notes

  • Use v4 for new hosted-agent integrations. Keep v2 or v3 only when maintaining an existing integration or using a resource not yet wrapped by the v4 SDK.
  • Cloud API base URL: https://api.browser-use.com/api/v2/ (v2), https://api.browser-use.com/api/v3 (v3), or https://api.browser-use.com/api/v4 (v4)
  • Auth header: X-Browser-Use-API-Key: <key>
  • Get API key: https://cloud.browser-use.com/new-api-key
  • Set env var: BROWSER_USE_API_KEY=<key>
  • Cloud SDK: uv pip install browser-use-sdk (Python) or npm install browser-use-sdk (TypeScript)
  • Python v2: from browser_use_sdk import AsyncBrowserUse
  • Python v3: from browser_use_sdk.v3 import AsyncBrowserUse
  • Python v4: from browser_use_sdk.v4 import BrowserUse or AsyncBrowserUse
  • TypeScript v2: import { BrowserUse } from "browser-use-sdk"
  • TypeScript v3: import { BrowserUse } from "browser-use-sdk/v3"
  • TypeScript v4: import { BrowserUse } from "browser-use-sdk/v4"
  • SDK 3.11.3 or newer exposes browsers.create and browsers.stop in the v4 namespace, alongside the v4 REST /browsers resource. Always stop a browser explicitly; closing CDP does not stop billing.
  • CDP WebSocket: wss://connect.browser-use.com?apiKey=KEY&proxyCountryCode=us

Bundled files

The model reads these on demand while the skill is loaded. They are exposed as readable files and are never executed.

Why use Cloud on TypingMind?

Because you install it once and use it with any model. Cloud is plain Markdown rather than provider-specific code, so the same skill runs on GPT-5, Claude, Gemini, Grok, or a local model — and you can switch model mid-chat without it breaking. TypingMind runs on your own API keys, so you pay providers directly instead of a per-seat subscription, and your skills and chats stay in your own storage.

How do I install Cloud in TypingMind?

Open Plugins → Skills → Install from GitHub in TypingMind and paste https://github.com/browser-use/browser-use/tree/main/skills/cloud. TypingMind reads its SKILL.md and bundles its files and installs it as a skill you can enable per chat.

Which AI models can use Cloud?

Any model you connect in TypingMind. AI skills are plain Markdown instructions rather than provider-specific code, so GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, and local models can all load this skill when a request matches it.

How many AI models can I use with Cloud?

As many as you like. As long as a model supports skills, you can use Cloud with it — GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek, Mistral, Llama and more — all on TypingMind with your own API keys.

Is the Cloud AI skill free?

Yes. It is published on GitHub by browser-use under the MIT license. You only pay your own AI provider for the tokens you use.

What are AI skills?

An AI skill is a reusable instruction bundle that teaches an AI model how to do one specific task. It follows the open Agent Skills format: a SKILL.md file with a name and description, plus any scripts, templates or reference files the model may need. The model reads the instructions only when your request matches the skill, so an installed skill costs nothing until it is used.

How are AI skills different from plugins or MCP servers?

A plugin or MCP server gives a model new tools to call — code that runs somewhere and returns a result. An AI skill gives the model knowledge and process instead: how to approach a task, which steps to follow, what good output looks like. Skills are plain Markdown, so they need no server, no API key and no runtime, and they work with any model.
