Browser Profile

Q: What is a Claude Code skill and how does the Browser Profile skill fit in?

A Claude Code skill is a SKILL.md file that lives under ~/.claude/skills/<name>/ and tells the Claude Code CLI agent how to perform a specific task (instructions, prompts, allowed tools). Skills are auto-discovered at session start. Browser Profile is one of 67,000+ skills indexed in the open ClaudSkills catalog, classified under the Engineering category.

Manage named persistent browser profiles (cookies, localStorage, IndexedDB, cache) that both you and Claude can use against the SAME Chrome window without collisions. Each profile lives in its own `--user-data-dir` and exposes a deterministic `--remote-debugging-port`. Use when the user says "open profile X", "attach to profile X", "log me into staging once and reuse it", or asks to test frontend flows with persistent auth across runs. Pairs with the `vd:browser` skill (`browse env local --auto-connect`) for the CDP attach step.
