How to use playwright-recording on Cursor

AI-first code editor with Composer

Prerequisites

Before installing skills in Cursor, ensure your development environment meets these requirements:

›Cursor installed and configured on your machine
›Node.js 16+ with npm — verify with node --version
›Active project directory where you want to add playwright-recording

Run the install command

Execute the skills CLI command in your project's root directory to begin installation:

$npx skills add https://github.com/digitalsamba/claude-code-video-toolkit --skill playwright-recording

Fetches playwright-recording from digitalsamba/claude-code-video-toolkit and configures it for Cursor.

Select Cursor when prompted

The CLI shows a list of agents. Use arrow keys and space to select Cursor:

◆ Which agents do you want to install to?

│

│ ── Universal (.agents/skills) ────────────────

│ · Cline · Codex · Goose · Windsurf

│ ●Cursor(selected)

│ · Cursor · Aider · Continue

Verify installation

Confirm successful installation by checking the skill directory location:

.cursor/skills/playwright-recording

Restart Cursor to activate playwright-recording. Access via /playwright-recording in your agent's command palette.

Security Notice

We perform automated surface-level scans (Gen AI Scanner, Socket, Snyk) during installation. These checks detect common vulnerabilities but do not guarantee complete security. Always review skill source code and verify the publisher's reputation before production use.

Skills execute code in your environment. Always review source, verify the publisher, and test in isolation before production.

Quick Start

Installation

# In your video project npm init -y npm install -D playwright @playwright/test npx playwright install chromium

Basic Recording Script

// scripts/record-demo.ts import { chromium } from 'playwright'; async function recordDemo() { const browser = await chromium.launch(); const context = await browser.newContext({ viewport: { width: 1920, height: 1080 }, recordVideo: { dir: './recordings', size: { width: 1920, height: 1080 } } }); const page = await context.newPage(); // Your recording actions await page.goto('https://example.com'); await page.waitForTimeout(2000); await page.click('button.demo'); await page.waitForTimeout(3000); // Close to save video await context.close(); await browser.close(); console.log('Recording saved to ./recordings/'); } recordDemo();

Run with:

npx ts-node scripts/record-demo.ts # or npx tsx scripts/record-demo.ts

Recording Configuration

Viewport Sizes

// Standard 1080p (recommended for Remotion) viewport: { width: 1920, height: 1080 } // 720p (smaller files) viewport: { width: 1280, height: 720 } // Square (social media) viewport: { width: 1080, height: 1080 } // Mobile viewport: { width: 390, height: 844 } // iPhone 14

Video Quality Settings

const context = await browser.newContext({ viewport: { width: 1920, height: 1080 }, recordVideo: { dir: './recordings', size: { width: 1920, height: 1080 } // Match viewport for crisp output }, // Slow down for visibility // Note: slowMo is on browser launch, not context }); // For slow motion, launch browser with slowMo const browser = await chromium.launch({ slowMo: 100 // 100ms delay between actions });

Recording Patterns

Form Submission Demo

import { chromium } from 'playwright'; async function recordFormDemo() { const browser = await chromium.launch({ slowMo: 50 }); const context = await browser.newContext({ viewport: { width: 1920, height: 1080 }, recordVideo: { dir: './recordings', size: { width: 1920, height: 1080 } } }); const page = await context.newPage(); await page.goto('https://myapp.com/form'); await page.waitForTimeout(1000); // Type with realistic speed await page.fill('#name', 'John Smith', { timeout: 5000 }); await page.waitForTimeout(500); await page.fill('#email', '[email protected]'); await page.waitForTimeout(500); // Click submit await page.click('button[type="submit"]'); // Wait for result await page.waitForSelector('.success-message'); await page.waitForTimeout(2000); await context.close(); await browser.close(); }

Multi-Page Navigation

async function recordNavDemo() { const browser = await chromium.launch({ slowMo: 100 }); const context = await browser.newContext({ viewport: { width: 1920, height: 1080 }, recordVideo: { dir: './recordings', size: { width: 1920, height: 1080 } } }); const page = await context.newPage(); // Page 1 await page.goto('https://myapp.com'); await page.waitForTimeout(2000); // Navigate to page 2 await page.click('nav a[href="/features"]'); await page.waitForLoadStateImplementation Guide Prerequisites ›Claude Desktop or compatible AI client with skill support ›Clear understanding of task or problem to solve ›Willingness to iterate and refine outputs Time Estimate 15-45 minutes depending on use case complexity Steps 1Install skill using provided installation command 2Test with simple use case relevant to your work 3Evaluate output quality and relevance 4Iterate on prompts to improve results 5Integrate into regular workflow if valuable Common Pitfalls ⚠Expecting perfect results without iteration ⚠Not providing enough context in prompts ⚠Using skill for tasks outside its intended scope ⚠Accepting outputs without review and validation Best Practices ✓ Do +Start with clear, specific prompts +Provide relevant context and constraints +Review and refine all outputs before using +Iterate to improve output quality +Document successful prompt patterns ✗ Don't −Don't use without understanding skill limitations −Don't skip validation of outputs −Don't share sensitive information in prompts −Don't expect skill to replace human judgment 💡 Pro Tips ★Be specific about desired format and style ★Ask for multiple options to choose from ★Request explanations to understand reasoning ★Combine AI efficiency with human expertise When to Use This ✓ Use when Use when skill capabilities match your task, clear ROI on time saved, and you can validate outputs.
