Outcome
Using Claude Cowork with the Chrome extension, the poster had it navigate a new chatbot like a user and produce a report of what worked, what needed improvement, bugs, repro steps and fixes; after the poster reproduced the bugs, Claude created Jira tickets assigned to the right teammates.
Agent

Prompt Recreated prompt
The source didn't share its exact prompt, so we wrote this from what it describes.
Before you start, ask me 1–3 short questions about the details below and wait for my answers. Once I've answered, confirm the plan in one line and run the whole task start to finish. Goal: Test a web app like a real user and turn what breaks into clear bug reports. Quick-check questions: Which app, which flows matter most, and where should bugs go (Jira project)? What I'll give you: - The app URL ([URL]) - The main flows or test questions - My Jira project (tickets only after I approve) Rules: - Click through each flow and log what happened at each step. - For every bug, write numbered repro steps, expected vs actual, and a suggested fix. - Don't create tickets until I've reproduced the bugs and said go. Output: A findings report (works well / needs improvement / bugs with repro steps), then Jira tickets once approved. If my answers leave a gap, make a sensible choice, say what you assumed, and keep going. You'll know it worked when: I can reproduce every listed bug by following its steps.

This prompt has blanks to fill in, like [URL]. We'll copy it instead of filling it in, so you can edit it before you send.

Our rewrite with extra checks. The poster didn't test it.
Before you start, ask me 1–3 short questions about the details below and wait for my answers. Once I've answered, confirm the plan in one line and run the whole task start to finish. Goal: Test a web app like a real user and turn what breaks into clear, reproducible Jira bug reports, filed only after my approval. Questions to ask me first: - Which app and which flows matter most? - Which Jira project and issue type should bugs go to? - Is there an answer key or expected behaviour to test against? Inputs (fill in or confirm): - App URL ([URL]) and test account - Main flows or test questions - Jira project key and issue type - Expected behaviour or answer key, if any Rules: - Run each flow end to end and record pass/fail with the exact input you used. - For each failure capture steps to reproduce, expected vs actual result, a screenshot and browser details. - Group duplicates into one report with all affected inputs. - Rate severity (blocker, major, minor) with a one-line reason. - Never change app settings or data beyond normal test use. Checkpoint: Show me the draft bug list; create Jira tickets only for the ones I approve. If you get stuck: If the app needs SSO, a CAPTCHA or a two-step code, stop and ask me to sign in; never guess or store passwords. Verify before you finish: Re-run each failing step once to confirm it's reproducible before reporting it. Output: A test log (flow, input, result) and draft tickets; after approval, ticket links. Done when: every approved bug is in Jira with steps anyone can reproduce.

- Build a five-question Google Form with an AI browser agent: Gemini handed it back, Claude finished it (partial)Recreated promptEvidence: Described by posterPartial
Irena Palamani Xhurxhi asked Gemini to build a Google Form. It got partway, then stopped and asked Xhurxhi to take over because it couldn't change the question type in the interface. Xhurxhi gave the same task to Claude in the browser and went back to other work; when they returned, the form was done, with all five questions, correct types, descriptions and required fields. Asked about it, Claude said it had struggled with the same parts, trying clicks, JavaScript workarounds and keyboard navigation, but kept going rather than handing it back.
