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.
- Typing: type_text_into_active_context now uses variable, human-like
inter-keystroke gaps from humanize::keystroke_delays when no explicit --delay
is given (Fast/Human); Off stays instant. Explicit --delay still wins.
- CLI: `--humanize off|fast|human` surfaces AGENT_BROWSER_HUMANIZE so the
session's daemon (a child that inherits this env) applies it, overriding the
adaptive detector. Invalid values warn and are ignored.
Verified headless: `--humanize human` + type lands "hello world" correctly.
Deferred: in-bbox landing jitter (helper ready, needs bbox threaded) + wheel/drag
easing.
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.
Cherry-picks upstream agent-browser #1396. Adds a configurable
--hide-scrollbars flag (AGENT_BROWSER_HIDE_SCROLLBARS env, hideScrollbars
config key, default true) that appends Chrome's --hide-scrollbars launch arg
for headless (non-extension) launches so native scrollbars aren't painted into
screenshots. Plumbed through flags.rs, connection.rs, main.rs, native/actions.rs
and native/cdp/chrome.rs; help text in output.rs + skill-data.
Fork adaptation:
- the arg lands in the headless && !has_extensions block, separate from the
stealth base args — no interaction with anti-detection.
- dropped upstream docs/, agent-browser.schema.json and README hunks (removed
or rewritten in this fork).
Verified: cargo check --tests passes.
- Auto-connect is now ON by default (was opt-in via --auto-connect)
- Added --launch/--new flags to explicitly start a fresh browser
- CI environments (CI env var) automatically use --launch mode
- Friendly error message with platform-specific Chrome relaunch guide
- Mentions Chrome 144+ runtime CDP toggle (chrome://inspect)
- --cdp and --provider flags implicitly disable auto-connect
- AGENT_BROWSER_NO_AUTO_CONNECT=1 to disable, AGENT_BROWSER_FORCE_LAUNCH=1 to force
Track 3 of native-stealth migration.

* feat(react): first-class React introspection, Web Vitals, and nextjs skill
Add React-general and web-universal features as first-class agent-browser verbs
(react tree/inspect/renders/suspense, vitals, pushstate). Genuinely Next.js-specific
workflows (PPR cookie protocol, /_next/mcp bridge, dev-server endpoints) ship as
a new `nextjs` skill that composes the primitives. No new runtime dependencies -
the React DevTools installHook.js is vendored (MIT) and include_str!'d into the
binary.
New commands:
react tree Full React component tree (depth id parent name)
react inspect <fiberId> Props, hooks, state, source for one fiber
react renders start|stop Fiber profiler with Insts/Mounts/Re-renders/Self/DOM
+ prev->next change details
react suspense Suspense boundaries + classifier (client-hook,
request-api, server-fetch, cache, stream, framework)
+ root-cause grouping + recommendations
vitals [url] LCP/CLS/TTFB/FCP/INP + React hydration phases
pushstate <url> Generic SPA client-side navigation
removeinitscript <id> Remove a script registered via addinitscript
New launch flags:
--init-script <path> Register init scripts before first navigation
(repeatable; env AGENT_BROWSER_INIT_SCRIPTS)
--enable <feature> Built-in init scripts; currently react-devtools
(repeatable; env AGENT_BROWSER_ENABLE)
Other primitives:
network route ... --resource-type <csv> Filter by CDP resource type
cookies set --curl <file> Auto-detects JSON/cURL/Cookie-header

* fix(tabs): preserve refs across --tab peek and cover outer-tab-closed path
Follow-up to #1249 so `--tab <id>` is actually useful for agents:
- Save and restore the outer tab's `ref_map`, `iframe_sessions`, and
`active_frame_id` across a scoped command instead of clearing them.
`snapshot` → `--tab N <cmd>` → `click @e1` now keeps the outer tab's
refs intact. Scoped commands still see a clean slate so outer refs
can't resolve against the scoped tab's DOM.
- Close the coverage gap the Vercel review bot flagged on #1249: the
previous `e2e_tab_scoped_command_handles_outer_tab_closed` test used
`tab_close`, which is in the scoped-dispatch exclusion list, so it
never exercised the restore-skip branch it claimed to test. Renamed
to `e2e_tab_close_with_tab_id_closes_active_tab` with an honest
docstring, and added `e2e_tab_scoped_command_outer_tab_closed_mid_dispatch`
that actually hits the branch via `window.opener.close()` on a
script-opened intermediate tab.
- Add `e2e_tab_scoped_command_isolates_refs_from_outer_tab` pinning
that outer refs don't bleed into the scoped tab's DOM resolution.
- Rewrite `e2e_tab_scoped_command_clears_state_on_switch` as
`e2e_tab_scoped_command_preserves_outer_tab_state`, verifying the
restored @e1 still clicks end-to-end.
- Update the 52 `--help` entries for `--tab <id>` to describe peek /
restore semantics instead of a vague "Target specific tab ID".
- Update README, docs site, config schema, and the agent-facing
skills reference with working examples (refs survive the peek) and
a "when to use \`--tab <id>\` vs \`tab <id>\`" guide so agents pick
the right flag for their workflow.
* fix(tabs): use t<N> prefix for tab ids, add --label for named tabs
Follow-on to the tab work in #1249 and the prior commit, redesigning the
tab handle surface before release since nothing ships these features yet.
## Why
Incrementing integer tab ids (`1`, `2`, `3`) look indistinguishable from
positional indices in command output, LLM-generated scripts, and docs. In
the common single-agent case where position and id coincide, readers have
no visual cue for which mental model they're using. Positional indices
silently shift when unrelated tabs open/close, so misreading a handle as
an index is a correctness hazard.
## Changes
**Tab ids are now `t1`, `t2`, `t3` (strings).** Bare integer `tabId`
values are rejected with a teaching message rather than silently accepted.
The `t` prefix matches the `@e1` element-ref convention and makes ids
unmistakably non-positional at a glance.
**Labels.** Tabs can be created with a user-assigned label (e.g. `docs`,
`app`) via `tab new --label <name> [url]`. Labels are interchangeable
with `t<N>` ids everywhere a tab ref is accepted. They're never
auto-generated, never rewritten on navigation, and must be unique within
a session.
**Dashboard fix.** `packages/dashboard/src/types.ts` declared
`TabInfo.index: number` but the daemon has been sending `tabId` (not
`index`) since #892, making `tab.index` `undefined` and breaking the
dashboard's close/switch buttons silently. Updated the TS types and
usages to consume `tabId` (string) and optional `label`, restoring the
dashboard's tab interactions.
## Surface
- `cli/src/native/browser.rs`: `TabRef::parse` / `format_tab_id` /
`is_valid_label` / `PageInfo.label` / `BrowserManager::resolve_tab_ref`
/ `BrowserManager::has_label`. `tab_new` gains an optional label
argument with duplicate rejection. All JSON responses use the string
form and include the label.
- `cli/src/native/actions.rs`: scoped-command pre-dispatch and
`handle_tab_{switch,close,new}` parse string refs and resolve to
stable ids.
- `cli/src/{flags,commands,main,output}.rs`: `--tab` / config `tab`
are `String`; `tab` subcommand accepts `t<N>` or a label and supports
`tab new --label <name> [url]`. All 52 `--help` entries updated.
- `agent-browser.schema.json`: `tab` property type is now `string` with
a pattern matching `t<N>` or label form.
- `packages/dashboard`: `TabInfo.tabId: string` / `label?: string | null`;
`closeTabAtom`/`switchTabAtom` take `tabRef: string`; component props
updated.
- Docs: README, docs site (`commands/` and `configuration/`), and the
agent-facing skills reference rewritten with the new examples.
## Tests
- Added `TabRef::parse` / `format_tab_id` / `is_valid_label` unit tests
pinning the bare-integer rejection, the teaching error, label rules,
and round-tripping.
- Added `test_tab_switch_by_id` / `_by_label` / `test_tab_new_with_label`
/ `_with_label_and_url` / `_with_url_then_label` in `commands.rs`;
rewrote `test_tab_unknown_subcommand_errors` since labels make
`tab select` a legitimate ref.
- Added `e2e_tab_new_with_label_can_be_switched_and_peeked`,
`e2e_tab_new_with_duplicate_label_errors`,
`e2e_tab_scoped_command_rejects_bare_integer`.
- Migrated every existing tab e2e test (and one unit test) from
integer `tabId` to the string form.
`cargo fmt`, `cargo clippy -- -D warnings`, all 30 non-ignored tab unit
tests, all 13 tab e2e tests, and `tsc --noEmit` on the dashboard all
pass.
* refactor(tabs): drop --tab scoped peek flag; keep t<N> ids and labels
After fleshing out `--tab <id|label>` in the previous commits (scoped
pre/post-dispatch save/restore, ref preservation, outer-tab-closed edge
case, full e2e coverage), the machinery-to-value ratio makes the feature
hard to justify. Nixing it now while nothing has shipped.
## Why
- Every new daemon feature touching per-tab state has to reason about
scoped-dispatch interleaving. `ScopedRestore`, pre/post-dispatch hooks,
and the exclusion list add ongoing maintenance tax.
- Three separate PRs (#892, #1249, and this one pre-nix) were needed to
reach "works correctly." That's a smell.
- `tab <id|label>` switch + labels already cover the legible multi-tab
workflow case.
- `--tab` vs `tab <id>` have opposite lifecycle semantics but look
identical, teaching every agent two things where one would do.
- "Non-disruptive peek" isn't actually race-free: the daemon does swap
active tab during execution, so a concurrent client between pre- and
post-dispatch sees the scoped tab as active.
- Ref-based interaction with scoped tabs never worked ergonomically —
refs are per-tab, so `--tab N click @e1` requires `@e1` to already be
on tab N, which means a prior switch, which negates the peek.
- Adding a feature back is easy; removing shipped API is hard.
If per-tab caching (`HashMap<tab_id, RefMap>`) lands later, `--tab` can
be reintroduced essentially for free. That's the right time.
## Removed
- `--tab <id|label>` global flag (`cli/src/flags.rs`, `cli/src/main.rs`,
all 52 `--help` entries in `cli/src/output.rs`).
- `tab` property in `agent-browser.schema.json` and the config-options
row in `docs/src/app/configuration/page.mdx`.
- `ScopedRestore` struct, pre/post-dispatch save/restore in
`execute_command` (`cli/src/native/actions.rs`).
- `impl Default for RefMap` in `cli/src/native/element.rs` (only added
for `mem::take` in the scoped machinery).
- `e2e_tab_global_targeting`, `_snapshot`, `_snapshot_non_contiguous`,
`e2e_tab_scoped_command_preserves_outer_tab_state`,
`_isolates_refs_from_outer_tab`, `_restores_active_tab`,
`_outer_tab_closed_mid_dispatch`. 590 lines.
- The "When to use `--tab` vs `tab <id|label>`" sections in README,
docs site, and skills reference.
## Kept
- Stable tab ids (`t1`, `t2`, `t3`) with bare-integer rejection.
- User-assigned labels (`tab new --label docs [url]`), with duplicate
rejection and interchangeable use everywhere a tab ref is accepted.
- `BrowserManager::{active_tab_id, has_tab_id, resolve_tab_ref, has_label}`
accessors (still used by the remaining tab handlers).
- `TabRef::parse`, `format_tab_id`, `is_valid_label` and their unit
tests.
- Dashboard TS fix (`TabInfo.tabId` + `label`).
- `e2e_tab_close_with_tab_id_closes_active_tab` (renamed docstring to
drop the gone exclusion-list reference).
- `e2e_tab_new_with_label_can_be_switched_and_closed` (rewrite of the
previous `_and_peeked` test — now exercises only switch and close).
- `e2e_tab_switch_rejects_bare_integer` (rewrite targeting the
`tab_switch` daemon handler rather than the removed scoped path).
net: -900 lines across 12 files. `cargo fmt`, `cargo clippy -D warnings`,
all 25 non-ignored tab unit tests, all 6 tab e2e tests, and
`tsc --noEmit` on the dashboard all pass.
Introduces stable per-tab IDs and a global `--tab <id>` flag for scoping individual commands to a specific tab.
Breaking change: response payloads for `tab_list`, `tab_new`, `tab_switch`, `tab_close`, and `window_new` now use `tabId` instead of `index`. `tab_close` returns `{tabId, closed: true}` instead of `{closed, activeIndex}`. `agent-browser tab <unknown>` now errors instead of silently listing tabs.
Follow-up PR to land immediately after this fixes a compile error on the provider direct-page path, clears per-tab daemon state around scoped switches, and implements active-tab restoration so `--tab N` is non-intrusive as intended.
* fix(cli): honor AGENT_BROWSER_DEFAULT_TIMEOUT env var for wait commands
The `AGENT_BROWSER_DEFAULT_TIMEOUT` environment variable was being ignored by CLI wait commands, causing them to use hardcoded 30-second timeouts instead of the configured default.
## Changes Made
- **Centralized timeout injection**: Modified `parse_command()` to automatically inject `flags.default_timeout` into any wait-family command that doesn't already have an explicit `--timeout` flag
- **Environment variable parsing**: Added `default_timeout` field to `Flags` struct that reads from `AGENT_BROWSER_DEFAULT_TIMEOUT` env var
- **Daemon propagation**: Updated daemon spawning to pass through the default timeout via environment variables
- **Unified timeout handling**: Added `timeout_ms()` helper method in `DaemonState` that all wait handlers now use instead of scattered `unwrap_or()` calls
- **Comprehensive test coverage**: Added 10 regression tests covering all wait command variants and edge cases
## Implementation Details
The fix uses a two-stage approach:
1. CLI parses the env var and injects timeout values into command JSON for any `wait*` action
2. Daemon reads the env var and provides a centralized fallback via `timeout_ms()` helper
This ensures new wait variants automatically inherit the default timeout without requiring per-variant wiring.
Fixes#1147
* fix: preserve 30s default timeout for backward compatibility
The default_timeout_ms fallback was set to 25_000ms, which silently
changes the existing 30_000ms behavior for users who haven't set
AGENT_BROWSER_DEFAULT_TIMEOUT. Restore the original 30s default.

* Add auto-dismissal for alert and beforeunload dialogs
This PR adds automatic handling of JavaScript dialogs to prevent the agent from blocking indefinitely when `alert()` or `beforeunload` dialogs appear on web pages.
## Summary
Previously, when a website displayed native browser confirmation dialogs (like alerts or "Are you sure you want to leave?" prompts), agent-browser would hang waiting for manual intervention. This is a common issue since many websites use these dialogs for notifications or navigation warnings.
## Changes Made
- **Auto-dismiss functionality**: Added a background task that automatically accepts `alert` and `beforeunload` dialogs while leaving `confirm` and `prompt` dialogs for explicit handling
- **New flag**: Added `--no-auto-dialog` flag to disable automatic handling when needed
- **Environment variable**: Added `AGENT_BROWSER_NO_AUTO_DIALOG` for configuration
- **Documentation**: Updated README and docs with usage examples and configuration details
- **Tests**: Added comprehensive test coverage for flag parsing and dialog handling logic
## Implementation Details
- Only `alert` (notification-only) and `beforeunload` (navigation warning) dialogs are auto-handled for safety
- `confirm` and `prompt` dialogs still require explicit `dialog accept/dismiss` commands to ensure agents make deliberate choices for destructive actions
- The feature is enabled by default since these dialog types rarely require user decision-making
- Uses Chrome DevTools Protocol's `Page.handleJavaScriptDialog` for reliable dialog dismissal
Fixes#1070
* Log dialog type and message before auto-dismissal
Without this, auto-dismissed alert/beforeunload dialogs are silently
swallowed and the agent has no way to see what the dialog said. Adding
an eprintln before the CDP call makes the dismissal visible in stderr
for debugging.
* Log dialog dismissal errors instead of silently discarding them
- Remove premature "accepted" from log message since it fires before
the CDP command executes
- Replace `let _ =` with `if let Err(e)` to log failures when
Page.handleJavaScriptDialog fails
- Apply rustfmt to auto-dialog tests

* fix: handle proxy authentication via CDP Fetch.authRequired
Chrome's --proxy-server flag does not support credentials embedded in
the URL. When a proxy requires authentication, Chrome receives a 407
from the proxy but has no way to respond with credentials, resulting
in net::ERR_INVALID_AUTH_CREDENTIALS.
Fix by:
1. Parsing credentials from the proxy URL (already done by parse_proxy)
2. Storing them in DaemonState.proxy_credentials
3. Enabling Fetch.enable with handleAuthRequests: true
4. Responding to Fetch.authRequired events with Fetch.continueWithAuth
5. Passing only the server URL (without credentials) to --proxy-server
6. Forwarding credentials to the daemon via dedicated env vars
Also adds fallback to standard proxy env vars (HTTP_PROXY, HTTPS_PROXY,
ALL_PROXY, NO_PROXY) when AGENT_BROWSER_PROXY is not set.
Fixes#990
* refactor: use typed struct for parse_proxy, fix double Fetch.enable and username-only auth
- Replace serde_json::Value return from parse_proxy with a typed ParsedProxy struct
- Fix double Fetch.enable call when both proxy auth and domain filter are active
(the second call could overwrite handleAuthRequests from the first)
- Allow username-only proxy auth (some proxies don't require a password)
- Handle empty username/password in parse_proxy as None instead of Some("")
- Use install_domain_filter_fetch in auto_launch for consistency
- Update unit tests to use typed struct fields

* refactor: make --full/-f a command-level flag instead of global
Move --full/-f from global flags (parsed in flags.rs) to command-level
parsing in commands.rs, scoped to the three commands that actually use
it: `screenshot`, `diff screenshot`, and `diff url`.
This frees up `-f` for other commands (e.g. `--follow` on
`console`/`errors`, see #867) and better reflects that full-page
capture is not a global concern.
Changes:
- Remove `full` from Flags struct, Config struct, and global flag parsing
- Remove `--full`/`-f` from clean_args global boolean flags list
- Parse `--full`/`-f` inline in `screenshot` command handler
- Accept `-f` shorthand in `diff screenshot` and `diff url` (previously
only `--full` was accepted at command level)
- Remove fallback from global `flags.full` in diff subcommands
- Update tests to pass --full as a command argument rather than a global flag
Fixes#876
* fix: remove stale AGENT_BROWSER_FULL env var from help and add -f shorthand tests
- Remove AGENT_BROWSER_FULL from help text in output.rs since the env
var is no longer read after moving --full to command-level parsing
- Add test_screenshot_full_page_shorthand to verify screenshot -f works
- Add test_diff_screenshot_command_full_flag_shorthand to verify
diff screenshot -f works

* feat: add --idle-timeout CLI flag for daemon auto-shutdown
Add user-friendly --idle-timeout flag that converts time strings
to milliseconds. Supports formats like '10s', '3m', '1h', or raw ms.
This addresses a common need for ephemeral/CI environments where
daemon processes can be orphaned if not explicitly closed, leading
to resource consumption from zombie chrome-headless-shell processes.

When user explicitly sets --headed false, the CLI was ignoring this
flag because the launch condition only checked if flags.headed was
true. This meant that --headed false would not trigger a launch
command, and subsequent commands would auto-launch with default
headless=true.
The fix adds a cli_headed flag to track when the user explicitly
sets --headed (regardless of value), and includes this in the
launch condition check.
Fixes#743
* feat: add screenshot output config, clipboard CLI commands, and fix wait --text native path
## Summary
- Add `--screenshot-dir`, `--screenshot-quality`, and `--screenshot-format` CLI flags (with corresponding `AGENT_BROWSER_SCREENSHOT_DIR`, `AGENT_BROWSER_SCREENSHOT_QUALITY`, `AGENT_BROWSER_SCREENSHOT_FORMAT` env vars) so users can configure where and how screenshots are saved without specifying a full path every time
- Add `clipboard read`, `clipboard write <text>`, `clipboard copy`, and `clipboard paste` CLI commands, exposing the existing protocol-level clipboard handlers that were previously only accessible via JSON-RPC
- Fix `wait --text` in native mode: the CLI was emitting `selector: "text=..."` (a Playwright-style locator) which native's `querySelector` can't handle. Now emits a `text` field that correctly hits the native `wait_for_text` polling path
- Add native clipboard `copy` and `paste` support via CDP `Input.dispatchKeyEvent`, and a `write` operation to the Node.js handler
* fix: resolve CI failures in Rust formatting and TypeScript typecheck
Use string-based page.evaluate for clipboard writeText to avoid
referencing `navigator` in Node.js compilation context. Run cargo fmt
to fix formatting in commands.rs and screenshot.rs.
* fix: clipboard write captures full multi-word text
Use rest[1..].join(" ") instead of rest.get(1) so unquoted multi-word
input like `clipboard write hello world` sends the full string rather
than silently dropping everything after the first word.

* fix: suppress spurious --native warning when set via env var
When AGENT_BROWSER_NATIVE=1 is set via environment variable, every
command after the first would warn:
⚠ --native ignored: daemon already running.
This is a false positive — the daemon was already spawned in native
mode and inherited the env var. The warning should only fire when
--native is explicitly passed on the CLI to an already-running daemon.
Add cli_native flag (consistent with existing cli_* pattern) to
distinguish CLI origin from env var origin.
* fix: add flag to test cfg
* fix: cli_native should track flag presence, not value
--native false on CLI should still warn when daemon is already
running, since the user is explicitly trying to change the mode.
* add security hardening features
- Add authentication vault (`auth save/login/list/show/delete`) so credentials are stored locally and never exposed to the LLM (fixes Snyk W007)
- Add `--content-boundaries` flag to wrap page-sourced output in structural markers, helping LLMs distinguish tool output from untrusted page content (fixes Snyk W011)
- Add `--allowed-domains` flag to restrict browser navigation to trusted domains
- Add `--action-policy` for static allow/deny gating of action categories, with opt-in `--confirm-actions`/`--confirm-interactive` for orchestrator or human-in-the-loop confirmation
- Add `--max-output` flag to truncate large page outputs, preventing context flooding
- New docs page at /security, updated README, SKILL.md, CLI help text, and templates

* feat: add --download-path option
Adds a `--download-path` flag (and `AGENT_BROWSER_DOWNLOAD_PATH` env / `downloadPath` config key) to set a default download directory for browser downloads.
Without this, Playwright stores downloads in a temp directory that is deleted when the browser closes. The new option passes through to Playwright's `downloadsPath` on `launch()` and `launchPersistentContext()`.
Fixes#507
* improvements

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

* 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
- Aumenta timeout por defecto de 10s a 60s para conexiones más lentas
* 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
Changes:
- cli/src/flags.rs: Add proxy flag parsing
- cli/src/main.rs: Add parse_proxy() with comprehensive tests
- 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
- src/browser.ts: Apply proxy to context creation
Tests:
- 7 unit tests for parse_proxy() covering all edge cases
- All Rust tests passing (69 tests)
- All TypeScript tests passing (168 tests)
- TypeScript typecheck passing
Resolves feedback from PR #16:
- Fixed username-only proxy handling (issue #2681046975)
- Added comprehensive unit tests
- Added --proxy to help documentation
- Used expect() instead of unwrap() for better error messages
* refactor: simplify parse_proxy function
- Remove redundant comments
- Extract server variable to reduce duplication
- Inline trivial username/password variables
All 7 proxy tests still passing.
* feat: add CDP connection support for external browsers
Add --cdp flag to connect to browsers via Chrome DevTools Protocol.
This enables control of Electron apps, Chrome instances, or any browser
exposing a CDP endpoint.
- Add cdpPort option to launch command schema
- Implement connectViaCDP() using chromium.connectOverCDP()
- Track browser connection type for proper reconnection handling
- Collect all pages from all contexts for CDP connections
Usage: agent-browser --cdp 9222 snapshot

* Fix --interactive flag being stripped for snapshot command
The clean_args function was removing all --prefixed arguments, which
incorrectly stripped command-specific flags like --interactive, --compact,
--depth, and --selector. Changed to only strip known global flags.
* Update Cargo.lock
