Do I need the nodejs_compat flag for Cloudflare Browser Rendering?

Yes, Browser Rendering requires Node.js APIs and polyfills, so you must include the nodejs_compat compatibility flag in your wrangler.jsonc or wrangler.toml file.

Should I use Puppeteer or Playwright for Cloudflare Workers?

Puppeteer is currently recommended for most use cases because it offers more advanced session management APIs. Playwright is a great choice if you are migrating existing tests or need MCP integration.

How do I avoid reaching my session limits?

Implement session reuse patterns by listing existing sessions with puppeteer.sessions() and connecting to them, and use browser.disconnect() to keep sessions alive rather than closing them immediately.

Can I use this skill to bypass XPath errors?

Yes, the skill includes patterns for using page.evaluate() to execute custom JavaScript for data extraction, which acts as a reliable workaround for environments where direct XPath support may be limited.

Does this support local development?

Yes, as of recent 2025 updates, wrangler (v4.26.0+) supports local development for both Puppeteer and Playwright with the /sessions endpoint.
