What You Get
11 Skills
| Skill | Type | Command | Description |
|---|
| Browser Library | library-reference | /rf-agentskills:browser | Web testing with Playwright (auto-waiting, assertions, Shadow DOM) |
| SeleniumLibrary | library-reference | /rf-agentskills:selenium | Web testing with Selenium WebDriver |
| AppiumLibrary | library-reference | /rf-agentskills:appium | Mobile testing for iOS and Android |
| RequestsLibrary | library-reference | /rf-agentskills:requests | REST API testing with HTTP methods |
| RESTinstance | library-reference | /rf-agentskills:restinstance | REST API testing with JSON Schema validation |
| Keyword Builder | script-based | /rf-agentskills:keyword-builder | Generate RF user keywords from structured input |
| Test Case Builder | script-based | /rf-agentskills:testcase-builder | Generate RF test cases from structured input |
| Resource Architect | script-based | /rf-agentskills:resource-architect | Design resource/variable file layouts |
| Libdoc Search | script-based | /rf-agentskills:libdoc-search | Search library keywords by use case |
| Libdoc Explain | script-based | /rf-agentskills:libdoc-explain | Explain keyword arguments and documentation |
| Results | script-based | /rf-agentskills:results | Parse output.xml into JSON summaries (requires robotframework) |
The 5 library-reference skills provide documentation and usage guidance. The 6 script-based skills execute Python scripts to generate code or analyze artifacts. Library-reference skills cross-reference their companion script-based skills (e.g., the Browser skill suggests using Keyword Builder and Libdoc Search).
4 Specialized Agents
| Agent | Purpose |
|---|
| RF Test Architect | Plan test suites, select libraries, design project structure |
| RF Debug Expert | Diagnose test failures, analyze output.xml, fix flaky tests |
| RF Keyword Consultant | Find, explain, and compare keywords across libraries |
| RF Migration Guide | Upgrade RF versions, migrate between libraries |
Automated Hooks
- Post-save validation: Automatically validates
.robot files after every write/edit
- Skill routing: Routes RF-related prompts to the appropriate skill or agent
- Environment check: Checks for installed RF packages at session start
- Test reminder: Reminds you to run tests when the session ends
Prerequisites
- Claude Code 1.0.33 or later
- Python 3.8+ (for builder and tool scripts)
- robotframework Python package (required for libdoc-search, libdoc-explain, and results skills)
pip install robotframework
All scripts handle a missing robotframework package gracefully -- script-based skills that do not require it (keyword-builder, testcase-builder, resource-architect) work with the Python standard library alone.
Optional libraries (for their respective skills):
pip install robotframework-browser # Browser skill
pip install robotframework-seleniumlibrary # Selenium skill
pip install robotframework-appiumlibrary # Appium skill
pip install robotframework-requests # Requests skill
pip install RESTinstance # RESTinstance skill

What is an Agent Skill?
Agent Skills are modular, self-contained packages that include a SKILL.md file (instructions) plus optional scripts, references, and assets. AI agents load a skill when its name or description matches the user request. Skills use progressive disclosure: only metadata is loaded initially; the full skill body and references are loaded on demand.
