Raw output

The global --raw option strips page status, generated code, and snapshot sections from the output, returning only the result value. Use it to pipe command output into other tools. Commands that don't produce output return nothing.

bunx @playwright/cli@0.1.8 --raw eval "JSON.stringify(performance.timing)" | jq '.loadEventEnd - .navigationStart'
bunx @playwright/cli@0.1.8 --raw eval "JSON.stringify([...document.querySelectorAll('a')].map(a => a.href))" > links.json
bunx @playwright/cli@0.1.8 --raw snapshot > before.yml
bunx @playwright/cli@0.1.8 click e5
bunx @playwright/cli@0.1.8 --raw snapshot > after.yml
diff before.yml after.yml
TOKEN=$(bunx @playwright/cli@0.1.8 --raw cookie-get session_id)

Open parameters

# Use specific browser when creating session
bunx @playwright/cli@0.1.8 open --browser=chrome
bunx @playwright/cli@0.1.8 open --browser=firefox
bunx @playwright/cli@0.1.8 open --browser=webkit
bunx @playwright/cli@0.1.8 open --browser=msedge

bunx @playwright/cli@0.1.8 open --persistent
# Use persistent profile with custom directory
bunx @playwright/cli@0.1.8 open --profile=/path/to/profile

# Connect to browser via extension
bunx @playwright/cli@0.1.8 attach --extension

# Connect to a running Chrome or Edge by channel name
bunx @playwright/cli@0.1.8 attach --cdp=chrome
bunx @playwright/cli@0.1.8 attach --cdp=msedge

# Connect to a running browser via CDP endpoint
bunx @playwright/cli@0.1.8 attach --cdp=http://localhost:9222

Snapshots

After each command, playwright-cli provides a snapshot of the current browser state.

> bunx @playwright/cli@0.1.8 goto https://example.com
### Page
- Page URL: https://example.com/
- Page Title: Example Domain
### Snapshot
[Snapshot](.playwright-cli/page-2026-02-14T19-22-42-679Z.yml)

You can also take a snapshot on demand using playwright-cli snapshot command. All the options below can be combined as needed.

# default - save to a file with timestamp-based name
bunx @playwright/cli@0.1.8 snapshot

# save to file, use when snapshot is a part of the workflow result
bunx @playwright/cli@0.1.8 snapshot --filename=after-click.yaml

# snapshot an element instead of the whole page
bunx @playwright/cli@0.1.8 snapshot "#main"

# limit snapshot depth for efficiency, take a partial snapshot afterwards
bunx @playwright/cli@0.1.8 snapshot --depth=4
bunx @playwright/cli@0.1.8 snapshot e34

Targeting elements

By default, use refs from the snapshot to interact with page elements.

# get snapshot with refs
bunx @playwright/cli@0.1.8 snapshot

# interact using a ref
bunx @playwright/cli@0.1.8 click e15

You can also use css selectors or Playwright locators.

# css selector
bunx @playwright/cli@0.1.8 click "#main > button.submit"

# role locator
bunx @playwright/cli@0.1.8 click "getByRole('button', { name: 'Submit' })"

# test id
bunx @playwright/cli@0.1.8 click "getByTestId('submit-button')"

Browser Sessions

# create new browser session named "mysession" with persistent profile
bunx @playwright/cli@0.1.8 -s=mysession open example.com --persistent
# same with manually specified profile directory (use when requested explicitly)
bunx @playwright/cli@0.1.8 -s=mysession open example.com --profile=/path/to/profile
bunx @playwright/cli@0.1.8 -s=mysession click e6
bunx @playwright/cli@0.1.8 -s=mysession close  # stop a named browser
bunx @playwright/cli@0.1.8 -s=mysession delete-data  # delete user data for persistent session

bunx @playwright/cli@0.1.8 list
# Close all browsers
bunx @playwright/cli@0.1.8 close-all
# Forcefully kill all browser processes
bunx @playwright/cli@0.1.8 kill-all

Example: Form submission

bunx @playwright/cli@0.1.8 open https://example.com/form
bunx @playwright/cli@0.1.8 snapshot

bunx @playwright/cli@0.1.8 fill e1 "user@example.com"
bunx @playwright/cli@0.1.8 fill e2 "password123"
bunx @playwright/cli@0.1.8 click e3
bunx @playwright/cli@0.1.8 snapshot
bunx @playwright/cli@0.1.8 close

bunx @playwright/cli@0.1.8 open https://example.com
bunx @playwright/cli@0.1.8 click e4
bunx @playwright/cli@0.1.8 fill e7 "test"
bunx @playwright/cli@0.1.8 console
bunx @playwright/cli@0.1.8 network
bunx @playwright/cli@0.1.8 close

bunx @playwright/cli@0.1.8 open https://example.com
