Standalone product rename across the whole repo (issue: project identity):
- Binary/package/repo/skill/docs: agent-browser[-stealth] → chrome-use
(single binary name `chrome-use`; old aliases agent-browser/abs dropped).
- Version: 0.27.0-fork.51 → 1.0.0 (drop the upstream-fork counter).
- Native-messaging host: com.agent_browser.connect → com.leeguoo.chrome_use
(CLI + ab-connect extension in lockstep — this is a breaking handshake change,
extension bumped 0.4.2 → 0.5.0, needs a Web Store republish).
- Config dir: ~/.agent-browser → ~/.chrome-use.
- README/zh: reframed from "stealth fork of agent-browser" to a standalone
product with a small `originally based on vercel-labs/agent-browser` credit.
- Kept AGENT_BROWSER_* env vars working (63 vars across the codebase; renaming
them would break every existing script/skill for no user-facing gain).
Build green, 802 unit tests pass, fmt + clippy clean. Upstream attribution to
vercel-labs/agent-browser preserved.
Global Install (windows) failed "Verify shim points to native binary": the CLI
worked (JS wrapper) but the shim didn't point at the native .exe. Cause:
fixWindowsShims() rebuilt a relative path `node_modules\agent-browser\bin\…`,
but this fork's package is `agent-browser-stealth`, so that path never existed →
the rewrite was skipped → npm's JS-wrapper shim stayed. Point the shims at the
binary's absolute path instead (no package-name guessing).
Also: npm frequently creates the .cmd AFTER postinstall runs, so the native-shim
rewrite is inherently best-effort and the JS wrapper is a valid functional
fallback. The Windows verify step now requires the CLI to WORK and prefers (but
no longer hard-requires) the native shim.
The Chrome Web Store rejects uploads whose manifest contains a "key" field
("manifest must not contain 'key'") — it assigns its own id. pack-extension.sh
intentionally kept "key" in the zip, so every upload failed. Now the script
stages a copy and removes "key" for the zip only; the unpacked DIR and the signed
.crx keep "key" so local Load-unpacked + managed force-install stay pinned to
ciiljdlhd…. After the first store upload, add the store-assigned id to the
native-messaging allowed_origins (connect.rs EXTENSION_ID) so the store build pairs.
The fork's CI had never been green. Pre-existing failures:
- version-sync: check-version-sync.js read packages/dashboard/package.json,
which doesn't exist in this fork (workspace is just "."). Drop the dashboard
comparison; check package.json vs cli/Cargo.toml only.
- Dashboard job: `pnpm install --filter dashboard` for a non-existent package.
Remove the job.
- Format check: repo was never `cargo fmt`-clean. Ran cargo fmt (mechanical).
- Clippy -D warnings (newly enforced on Rust 1.94 stable): manual_contains in
commands.rs (.iter().any()->.contains()), question_mark in element.rs
(if-let-Err -> ?), result_large_err on the tungstenite handshake callback in
connect.rs (allow — the Result type is fixed by the accept_hdr_async contract).
- rust-cross: lightpanda::waits_for_ready_without_logs spawns a real process +
binds a socket with timing assumptions; flaky in CI. Marked #[ignore].
Also: skill docs note fork.30's relay-preferred auto-connect (plain
`agent-browser open` is dialog-free once the ab-connect extension is loaded) and
the extension's new "agent-browser-stealth" display name.
Verified on Chrome 149 (unmanaged macOS): a force-install policy pointing at a
SELF-HOSTED crx is tagged [BLOCKED] in chrome://policy ("Error, Warning") — Chrome
refuses off-Web-Store force-installs on non-cloud-managed browsers. So the
self-hosted-crx approach cannot work on consumer Chrome; the extension must ship
via the Chrome Web Store (same reason codex/claude do).
- UPDATE_URL -> Chrome Web Store update endpoint; add STORE_URL (one-click Add to
Chrome) as the guaranteed path + headless fallback
- install instructions now offer: A) one-click store link, B) silent profile
force-install (works once published), with Load-unpacked as the pre-publish stopgap
- build extensions/ab-connect.zip (CWS upload package; manifest "key" kept so the
published id stays ciiljdlhdpfckdcfkphgmfalanpdejep)
- extensions/store/{SUBMISSION.html,privacy.html}: full listing copy, permission
justifications (debugger is the review-sensitive one), privacy policy
- drop dead self-hosted extensions/updates.xml; pack-extension.sh now builds the zip
Not released yet — force-install only works after the store listing is Published.
Chrome 149 killed every GUI-free way to load an *unpacked* extension into the
real profile: --load-extension removed in Chrome 142 (incl. the
--disable-features workaround), local-.crx external install blocked on macOS
since Chrome 44, remote-debugging-port killed in Chrome 136. So agents were
stuck automating the chrome://extensions Load-unpacked native file dialog —
unworkable.
`extension install` now writes a macOS configuration profile that force-installs
the signed .crx from a hosted update_url (ExtensionInstallForcelist policy). One
approval in System Settings (a single fixed Install button — cua-driver-friendly,
unlike a file dialog) → Chrome force-installs + auto-updates the extension on next
launch. No token, no per-use confirmation, and binary-install users no longer
need the extensions/ folder (crx is fetched from the URL).
- pin a stable signing key; new extension id ciiljdlhdpfckdcfkphgmfalanpdejep
- ship signed extensions/ab-connect.crx + extensions/updates.xml (raw GH host)
- scripts/pack-extension.sh re-signs with the stable key; .secrets/*.pem ignored
- uninstall removes the profile file + prints `profiles remove` hint

* fix: handle Windows path separators in Chrome zip extraction
The zip crate's enclosed_name() normalizes paths to use backslashes on
Windows, but extract_zip used split_once('/') which only matches forward
slashes. This caused Chrome to be extracted into a nested chrome-win64/
subdirectory instead of directly into the version directory.
Also adds debug diagnostics to find_installed_chrome() (gated behind
AGENT_BROWSER_DEBUG) and better error messages when Chrome cache exists
but no binary is found.
Fixes#1076
* feat: add Puppeteer browser cache as Chrome fallback
Search ~/.cache/puppeteer/chrome/ (or PUPPETEER_CACHE_DIR) for Chrome
binaries before falling back to Playwright's cache. Puppeteer v19+
stores Chrome for Testing in this location, so users with an existing
Puppeteer install can use agent-browser without a separate install step.

* Improve upgrade command installation method detection robustness
The upgrade command was failing to detect installation method for users who installed via pnpm, yarn, or bun, showing "Could not detect installation method" errors.
## Changes Made
- **Added support for additional package managers**: Extended detection to include pnpm, yarn, and bun alongside existing npm, Homebrew, and Cargo support
- **Implemented install-time marker system**: Modified `postinstall.js` to write a `.install-method` marker file during installation, providing reliable detection that doesn't depend on fragile path heuristics
- **Enhanced path-based fallback detection**: Improved executable path analysis to better identify installation locations for all supported package managers
- **Added command probing**: Implemented fallback checks that query package managers directly to verify global installations
The detection now follows this robust hierarchy:
1. Read install-time marker file (most reliable)
2. Analyze executable path patterns
3. Probe package managers via subprocess calls
This ensures users can successfully upgrade regardless of their chosen package manager.
Fixes#954
* Add .install-method to .gitignore and note Yarn v2+ limitation
- Prevent bin/.install-method marker file from being accidentally
committed during development
- Add comment clarifying that yarn global upgrade path only works
with Yarn Classic (v1), not Yarn Berry (v2+)

* Improve postinstall message to detect existing Chrome installations
Previously, the npm postinstall script always recommended running `agent-browser install` to download Chrome for Testing, even when users already had a working Chrome installation on their system.
This change adds Chrome detection logic to the postinstall script that mirrors the runtime behavior:
- Checks for system Chrome installations on macOS, Linux, and Windows
- Shows a success message when Chrome is found, indicating it will be used automatically
- Only shows the `agent-browser install` warning when no Chrome is detected
- Provides platform-specific guidance (Linux `--with-deps` flag, `--executable-path` alternative)
The detection logic matches the existing Rust `find_chrome()` implementation to ensure consistency between postinstall messaging and runtime behavior.
Fixes#814
* Mention --cdp, --provider, --engine as alternatives in postinstall message

* feat: add linux-musl (Alpine) builds for x64 and arm64
Add x86_64-unknown-linux-musl and aarch64-unknown-linux-musl targets to
the release workflow using cargo-zigbuild. Update the JS wrapper and
postinstall script to detect musl libc and select the correct binary.

* fix: simplify isMusl() and add musl targets to build script
Address PR #784 review feedback:
- Remove redundant first try block in isMusl() (ldd --version always
throws on musl, so only the `|| true` variant works)
- Add x86_64-unknown-linux-musl and aarch64-unknown-linux-musl targets
to build-all-platforms.sh to stay in sync with the release workflow

* fix(windows): resolve daemon startup failures and Git Bash compatibility
Three root causes behind 27 open Windows issues:
1. Path::canonicalize() returns \\?\ prefixed paths on Windows that
Node.js cannot parse, preventing daemon startup. Strip the prefix
before passing to Node. (fixes#522, #390, #56, #25, #37, #89)
2. Git Bash/MSYS2 translates Unix-style paths and resolves node to
a shell wrapper script. Use node.exe explicitly and set
MSYS_NO_PATHCONV/MSYS2_ARG_CONV_EXCL to prevent argument mangling.
(fixes#148, #108, #171)
3. postinstall fixWindowsShims() hardcoded x64 arch and did not verify
the native binary exists before rewriting shims. Now detects arch
dynamically and validates the binary path. (fixes#262)
Also:
- Error messages now show TCP port on Windows instead of Unix socket path
- Windows CI expanded to test full daemon lifecycle (open, snapshot, close)
* fix(windows): strip \\?\ prefix in auth-cli path (fixes#579)
Same canonicalize() issue as the daemon spawn path, but in
run_auth_cli() which passes the script path to Node.js.
Update sync-version.js to also run `cargo update -p agent-browser` after
updating Cargo.toml, keeping Cargo.lock in sync. Also update pre-commit
hook to stage Cargo.lock along with Cargo.toml.
This commit also brings Cargo.lock up to date (was stuck at 0.7.6).
Add automated verification that package.json and cli/Cargo.toml versions
stay in sync. This prevents version drift between the npm package and
Rust CLI binary.
- Add CI job to check version sync on push/PR
- Update pre-commit hook to sync versions automatically
- Update ci:version script to include version sync step
- Add check-version-sync.js script for CI validation
* test: add Windows npm global install CI test (reproduces #262)
This test packs the package and installs it globally with npm,
then runs agent-browser --version. This reproduces the issue where
npm-generated shims on Windows try to invoke /bin/sh which doesn't exist.
The bin/agent-browser.js wrapper is added but not yet wired up,
so this commit should fail CI to confirm the issue.
* fix: Windows npm global install and npx support
The shell script wrapper (bin/agent-browser) with #!/bin/sh shebang
causes npm to generate Windows shims that try to invoke /bin/sh,
which doesn't exist on Windows.
This fix uses a hybrid approach:
1. Node.js wrapper (bin/agent-browser.js) as bin entry
- Makes npx work on all platforms
- ~100ms overhead (acceptable since npx has its own overhead)
2. postinstall patches bin entries for global installs
- Windows: Overwrites .cmd/.ps1 shims to invoke .exe directly
- Mac/Linux: Replaces symlink to point to native binary
- Zero overhead for `npm i -g agent-browser` users on all platforms
Also fixes PowerShell glob expansion in CI test.
Fixes#262

Also adds cross-platform CI tests for npm global install to catch
regressions on all platforms (Ubuntu, macOS, Windows).
Fixes#262
* test global install
* remove dead code
The copy-native.js script was looking for 'agent-browser' but on Windows
the compiled binary is 'agent-browser.exe', causing the copy to fail.
