No browser arg provided

Error

No browser arg provided

What it means

Puppeteer raised this from its browser installation code. In practice, it usually means your script reached a browser, page, frame, element, or option state that the API cannot use safely.

How to fix it

• Verify network access to the browser download host and avoid setting PUPPETEER_SKIP_DOWNLOAD unless you provide your own browser.
• Clear the Puppeteer browser cache and reinstall if an archive or metadata file is corrupt.
• On Linux, install required system packages before launching the browser.

Minimal guard

try {
  // Run the Puppeteer operation that triggers this error.
} catch (error) {
  if (error instanceof Error && error.message.includes("No browser arg provided")) {
    // Apply the fix above, then retry or fail with a clearer message.
  }
  throw error;
}
