Great work!
I assume that many web sites use HTML forms with fields like "username" and "password", so opening the browser with a URL such as "https//mybank.example.com/login.php?username=myuser&password=mypass would work.

The challenge is to figure out what the URL is and what the field names are ... do you know how roboform does this?

Hm, thinking this through I'm not sure if my example is what you want since then the URL (including your password!) would end up in the browser's history ...
