Playwright Interoperability

Stagehand is built on top of Playwright, so you can use Playwright methods directly through the Stagehand instance.

​

page and context

stagehand.page and stagehand.context are instances of Playwright’s Page and BrowserContext respectively. Use these methods to interact with the Playwright instance that Stagehand is using.

const page = stagehand.page;
// Base Playwright methods work
await page.goto("https://github.com/browserbase/stagehand");

// Stagehand overrides Playwright objects
await page.act({
	action: "click on the contributors"
})
