Every browser launch option that was only reachable through .playwright/cli.config.json or PLAYWRIGHT_MCP_* env vars is now an `open` flag: --proxy, --proxy-bypass, --ignore-https-errors, --user-agent, --executable-path, --init-script, --extension, --state, --allowed-origins and --blocked-origins. The skill documents the flags and their environment variable counterparts. Credentials embedded in the proxy URL are moved into username/password, and HTTPS_PROXY / HTTP_PROXY / NO_PROXY are honored when no proxy is configured otherwise. Unpacked extensions get the Chromium switches, the default --disable-extensions dropped, the bundled Chromium build (Google Chrome no longer loads unpacked extensions) and a persistent profile. The MCP server gets the matching --load-extension flag.
