I kept running into this: Playwright gets detected by anti-bot immediately.
Playwright got detected by anti-bot instantly — couldn't even load the homepage. Took me a while to realize the webdriver traces gave it away.
Ended up wrapping a small reusable workflow around it — Playwright stealth (drop webdriver traces). The part that actually saved me time: Remove automation flags + randomize fingerprint.
Concretely, it:
- strips Playwright webdriver flags
- random fingerprint, evades detection
Put it (and ~20 other similar ones) in a repo in case it helps someone: https://github.com/shuangying0001-beep/awesome-workbuddy-skills
