# WriteUserScript
Creates or overwrites a script in the caller's user folder.
Two destinations are supported:
| kind | directory | runtime | signature |
|------|-----------|---------|-----------|
| `'script'` (default) | `scripts/` | plain Node.js | `main({ params })` |
| `'browser-macro'` | `browser-macros/` | Playwright — Chromium | `main({ context, params })` |
## Input
```ts
{
name: string, // slug — '.js' appended if absent
content: string, // full file text (frontmatter + main())
kind?: 'script' | 'browser-macro', // default: 'script'
overwrite?: boolean // default: false — error if file exists
}
```
## Required file structure
The content must define a `main` function. The following forms are all accepted:
```js
// ES function declaration
async function main({ params }) { }
// Arrow / assigned function
const main = async ({ params }) => { };
// CommonJS export
module.exports = async function main({ params }) { };
exports.main = async function({ params }) { };
```
If none of these patterns is found the tool returns `isError: true` with a
hint to add a `main` definition.
## YAML frontmatter (recommended)
```yaml
---
description: One-line human-readable description shown in ListUserAssets
params:
- name: url
type: string
- name: limit
type: number
default: 10
---
```
Frontmatter is parsed by `RunUserScript` for param validation. Scripts without
frontmatter still run, but param validation is skipped.
Browser macros may additionally declare `session_profile_id: <N>` to auto-load
a saved login session (see `RunUserScript` docs).
## Size limit
256 KB (UTF-8 encoded). Exceeding the limit returns `isError: true`.
## Overwrite semantics
By default (`overwrite: false`) writing to an existing file is an error.
Pass `overwrite: true` to replace the existing file atomically.
## When to use
- You discovered a useful reusable pattern during a task — save it for next time.
- The user asks you to create or update a script they can run later via `RunUserScript`.
- You want to prototype a browser automation without going through the UI.
## Examples
### Plain Node script
```js
WriteUserScript({
name: "fetch-and-clean",
kind: "script",
content: `---
description: Fetch a URL and return cleaned JSON
params:
- name: url
type: string
---
const https = require('https');
async function main({ params }) {
const res = await fetch(params.url);
const json = await res.json();
return { items: json.items ?? [] };
}
`
})
```
### Browser macro
```js
WriteUserScript({
name: "screenshot-dashboard",
kind: "browser-macro",
content: `---
description: Take a screenshot of the dashboard
params:
- name: url
type: string
---
async function main({ context, params }) {
const page = await context.newPage();
await page.goto(params.url);
const buf = await page.screenshot({ fullPage: true });
return { screenshotBase64: buf.toString('base64') };
}
`
})
```
## Error cases
| Situation | `isError` | message contains |
|-----------|-----------|-----------------|
| No authenticated user | true | "authenticated" |
| `name` missing / empty | true | `"name"` |
| `name` contains `/`, space, etc. | true | "alphanumeric" |
| `content` missing `main` | true | "main" |
| Content exceeds 256 KB | true | "bytes" |
| File exists, `overwrite` not set | true | "overwrite" |
## Notes
- `WriteUserScript` is a META_TOOL — available in every movement without listing it in `allowed_tools`.
- After writing, use `RunUserScript` to immediately execute and verify the script.
- Use `ListUserAssets` to see all scripts currently in the folder.
