Skyvern is an open-source AI agent that automates browser-based workflows using LLMs and computer vision rather than brittle XPath/CSS selectors, letting it operate on websites it has never seen before. It exposes a Playwright-compatible SDK plus an API and workflow builder, and runs self-hosted (Python, Docker) or via Skyvern Cloud. Users bring their own LLM provider key: the .env.example ships empty OPENAI_API_KEY / ANTHROPIC_API_KEY / GEMINI_API_KEY fields, and the self-hosted LLM Configuration docs document an ENABLE_<PROVIDER>=true + <PROVIDER>_API_KEY pattern across OpenAI, Anthropic, Azure OpenAI, Google Gemini/Vertex, AWS Bedrock, Ollama (local), OpenRouter, Groq, plus an OpenAI-compatible/custom-endpoint option and several regional providers (MiniMax, VolcEngine, Novita, Moonshot). Licensed AGPL-3.0; anti-bot detection, proxy network, and CAPTCHA solvers are reserved for the managed cloud offering. ~22k GitHub stars; latest release v1.0.43 (June 18, 2026).
How your API key is handled
Your API key is supplied via an environment variable or local config file. Requests are sent directly to the AI provider. Because it can be self-hosted, your key never has to touch a third-party backend.
Setup
Install the tool, set your provider API key as an environment variable (or in its config file), and pick a model.
