Challenge Aware Webbridge

Challenge Aware WebBridge

Overview

Use this skill to keep a browser task moving when a verification page interrupts normal automation. Detect challenge pages, hand control to the user cleanly, wait for the challenge to clear, then resume the original task from the same Kimi WebBridge session.

Workflow

1. Reuse one stable session name for the whole user task. Do not split a single browsing task across multiple session names.
2. After navigation, run scripts/detect_verification_page.py if the page title, URL, or visible text looks suspicious.
3. If no challenge is detected, continue normal browsing.
4. If a challenge is detected:

• Tell the user plainly that the site is waiting for manual verification.
• Keep the current tab and session alive.
• Bring the page into view if needed so the user can interact with it.
• If the user explicitly asks for prep, only do non-submitting actions such as opening the page, waiting for layout, or focusing a neutral area outside the challenge.
• Do not claim the skill can bypass, solve, or defeat the challenge automatically.

1. Run scripts/wait_for_clearance.py to poll until the interstitial is gone or the timeout expires.
2. When the page clears, take a fresh snapshot and resume the original task.

Safe Defaults

• Prefer compact snapshot and evaluate probes over broad page dumps.
• Treat title or URL clues such as checkLoading, turnstile, captcha, verify, or checking your browser as strong signals.
• Keep all user-facing language calm and concrete. Explain what is blocking the task and what the user should do next.
• Never store secrets, cookies, or personal data in helper scripts or repo files.
• Never present this skill as an anti-bot evasion tool.

Tooling

• Use scripts/webbridge_request.py for daemon calls, especially on Windows where request bodies should be posted from a UTF-8 temp file.
• Use scripts/detect_verification_page.py to classify the current page as clear or challenged.
• Use scripts/wait_for_clearance.py after user handoff to detect when the site is ready again.
