The warning "⚠ --annotate only applies to the screenshot command" fires
on every non-screenshot command when annotate is set in config. This is
noisy for users who set it as a persistent default.
Add cli_annotate tracking (matching the existing cli_* pattern) so the
warning only fires when --annotate is passed as a CLI flag.
Fixes#519. Playwright defaults `colorScheme` to `light` on all new contexts, overriding the browser/OS dark mode setting. This is especially disruptive in CDP mode, where every reconnection resets the scheme. The `set media dark` command also didn't persist its choice to new tabs or pages.
- Add `--color-scheme <dark|light|no-preference>` flag, config key (`colorScheme`), and env var (`AGENT_BROWSER_COLOR_SCHEME`)
- Store the preference in `BrowserManager` and automatically apply it to all new contexts (via Playwright's context option) and all new pages (via `page.emulateMedia` in `setupPageTracking`)
- `set media dark/light` now also persists its choice for subsequent pages and tabs
Rebased and fixed implementation of PR #184 features on current main:
Session persistence:
- --session-name flag and AGENT_BROWSER_SESSION_NAME env var auto-save/restore
cookies and localStorage across browser restarts
- State files stored in ~/.agent-browser/sessions/ with owner-only permissions
- AES-256-GCM encryption via AGENT_BROWSER_ENCRYPTION_KEY env var
- Auto-expiration of old state files (AGENT_BROWSER_STATE_EXPIRE_DAYS, default 30)
State management commands:
- state list: list saved state files with metadata
- state show <file>: display state summary (cookies, origins, domains)
- state rename <old> <new>: rename state files
- state clear [name] [--all]: clear saved states
- state clean --older-than <days>: delete expired states
New --new-tab flag for click command:
- Opens link href in a new tab instead of navigating the current tab
Security hardening:
- Session name validation prevents path traversal (CLI + daemon)
- safeHeaderMerge prevents prototype pollution in header merging
- WebSocket stream server binds to 127.0.0.1 only
- State files written with 0o600 permissions
Fixes applied over the original PR:
- Use color.rs module instead of hardcoded ANSI escape codes
- Align CLI output field names with daemon response format
- Add CLI-level --session-name validation (not just daemon-side)
- Avoid adding "DOM" to tsconfig.json lib (use proper typing in evaluate)
- Keep version at 0.9.3 (matches current main)
- Centralize session name validation in daemon.ts helper
- Update all documentation (README, SKILL.md, docs site, --help output)

* feat: add --allow-file-access flag for file:// URL support
Adds the ability to open and interact with local files using file:// URLs.
This enables use cases like viewing local PDFs, testing local HTML files,
and allowing JavaScript to access other local files via XHR.
The flag adds Chromium's --allow-file-access-from-files and --allow-file-access
launch arguments. Only supported in Chromium browsers.
Fixes#345
* fix: add cli_allow_file_access tracking to prevent spurious warning
When --allow-file-access is set via AGENT_BROWSER_ALLOW_FILE_ACCESS env var
(not CLI), don't warn about the flag being ignored when daemon is already running.
The warning about launch-time options being ignored (when daemon is
already running) was incorrectly shown when options were set via
environment variables like AGENT_BROWSER_EXECUTABLE_PATH, even when
no CLI flag was passed.
Now the warning only appears when flags are explicitly passed on the
command line, not when values come solely from environment variables.
Fixes#372
* feat: add support for ignoring HTTPS certificate errors
* fix: update warning message for already running daemon to include ignore HTTPS errors option
* docs: add documentation for --ignore-https-errors option in README and SKILL.md
* feat: initialize ignore_https_errors flag in command context
* fix: change launch_cmd to mutable for cdp value handling
* Add --profile flag for persistent browser profiles
Adds support for persistent browser profiles that preserve cookies,
localStorage, and login sessions across browser restarts.
Changes:
- Add --profile <path> CLI flag (flags.rs)
- Add AGENT_BROWSER_PROFILE environment variable support
- Add profile field to LaunchCommand type (types.ts)
- Use launchPersistentContext when profile is specified (browser.ts)
- Update help text and README with documentation
Usage:
agent-browser --profile ~/.myapp-profile open myapp.com
This enables AI agents to maintain authenticated sessions across
browser restarts without re-authenticating each time.
* Expand tilde in profile path to home directory
* fix: add missing profile field to test Flags struct

* feat: add Browser Use cloud browser
integration
* feat: enhance Browser Use integration with provider flag support
- Updated README to reflect new usage instructions for enabling Browser Use with the `-p` flag.
- Modified CLI to parse and handle the `-p` flag for specifying the provider.
- Implemented logic in the main application to launch with the specified cloud provider.
- Adjusted BrowserManager to connect to Browser Use based on the provider flag or environment variable.
- Updated types and protocol schemas to include provider information.
* feat: add validation for mutually exclusive CLI options
- Implemented checks to prevent the use of both --cdp and --provider flags simultaneously.
- Added validation to ensure --extension cannot be used with the --provider flag.
- Enhanced error handling to provide clear feedback in both JSON and console output formats.
* feat: add --proxy flag for browser proxy support
Add CLI flag to configure HTTP/SOCKS proxy for Playwright browser context.
Supports URL format with optional credentials: http://user:pass@host:port
* fix: improve proxy parsing error handling
- Handle malformed credentials (@ without :) by ignoring incomplete creds
- Replace unwrap() with expect() for better error messages
- Addresses Vercel bot code review suggestions
* Restaura cambios locales: soporte AGENT_BROWSER_HOME y timeout aumentado
- Agrega soporte para variable de entorno AGENT_BROWSER_HOME en connection.rs

* feat: add --proxy flag for browser proxy configuration
Implements proxy support based on PR #16 with reviewer feedback:
Features:
- Parse proxy URLs: http://[user:pass@]host:port
- Support for HTTP, HTTPS, and SOCKS5 protocols
- Handle username-only auth (preserves username with empty password)
- Apply proxy to both standard and persistent contexts

- cli/src/output.rs: Add --proxy to help output
- cli/src/commands.rs: Fix test helper to include proxy field
- src/types.ts: Add proxy to LaunchCommand interface
- src/protocol.ts: Add proxy validation schema

- Track browser connection type for proper reconnection handling
- Collect all pages from all contexts for CDP connections
