Fixes #5566
Problem
playwright_controller.pyopens files without explicitly specifying UTF-8 encoding. On systems where the default encoding is not UTF-8 (e.g., Windows with GBK/CP1252), this causesUnicodeDecodeErrororUnicodeEncodeErrorwhen reading/writing web page content containing non-ASCII characters.Fix
Add
encoding='utf-8'to the file open call inplaywright_controller.py. This ensures consistent behavior across all platforms regardless of system locale.Scope
Single-line change in
python/packages/autogen-ext/src/autogen_ext/agents/web_surfer/playwright_controller.py.Verification
The web surfer agent can now scrape and interact with pages containing non-ASCII content (Chinese, emoji, accented characters) on Windows, Linux, and macOS without encoding errors.
