description	Works with frames and iframes through the cdp MCP server. Use when the task involves listing frames, switching execution context, or validating content that lives inside embedded documents.

Working With Iframes

Use this skill when page state or interactions depend on an iframe rather than the top document.

Quick start

• Use list_frames to see frame IDs, names, URLs, and parents
• Use switch_frame with main, a frame name, an index, or an iframe selector
• After switching, use normal page tools such as page_snapshot, click, type_text, and get_page_content

Use this skill for

• finding the right iframe before interacting with it
• switching back and forth between the main document and child frames
• checking whether embedded content is same-page UI or a separate frame target
