Autonomous web agents powered by large language models (LLMs) remain brittle on long-horizon browser workflows. A key bottleneck is a grounding gap in existing skill formulations: textual workflow skills provide natural language guidance but cannot be directly executed, while code-based skills execute without giving the agent step-level guidance for adaptation or recovery. We introduce WebXSkill, a framework that bridges this gap with executable skills, each pairing a parameterized action program with step-level natural-language guidance. WebXSkill operates in three stages: skill extraction mines reusable action subsequences from readily available synthetic agent trajectories and abstracts them into parameterized skills, skill organization indexes them into a URL-based graph for context-aware retrieval, and skill deployment exposes two complementary modes, grounded mode for fully automated execution and guided mode where skills serve as step-by-step instructions the agent follows with its native planning. WebXSkill demonstrates consistent improvements on WebArena, WebVoyager, and Online-Mind2Web. We further find that better skill deployment mode depends on a model's plan and execution capability.
