chore(release): 0.27.0-fork.41 — relay self-heals silently (no user action on blip)

fix(connect): self-heal the relay silently — ~15s retry, no user action
fork.40 errored after 5s ("reload the extension"), which still pushed the problem onto the user. Extend the relay-reconnect wait to ~15s when the extension is installed: enough for the MV3 service worker to wake and reconnect on its own (onStartup after a Chrome restart, or the keepalive alarm). The loop re-checks the relay file each iteration, so a mid-wait recovery is picked up instantly and the full window is only spent when the extension is genuinely down. End users no longer have to do anything when the relay blips.

 Stealth fork of [agent-browser](https://github.com/vercel-labs/agent-browser) — connects to your real Chrome, shares your login sessions, and is undetectable by anti-bot systems.

 For basic usage, commands, and API reference, see the [upstream documentation](https://github.com/vercel-labs/agent-browser).

+## Give your AI agent the browser you already live in
+
+**No fresh Chrome. No re-login. No "are you a robot?" walls.**
+
+agent-browser-stealth points **any** agent — Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, your own scripts — at the **Chrome you're already signed into everything on**. It clicks in *your* window, so you watch it work and grab the wheel the moment it hits a 2FA prompt or captcha. And because it's literally your real browser (over a one-click extension, native messaging — no debug port), sites read it as 100% human: **[CreepJS scores it 0% bot](#anti-detection).**
+
+**Why not just use…**
+
+- **Playwright / Puppeteer / browser-use?** They boot an *empty* browser — so you redo every login, fight every captcha, and still get flagged as automation. We use the session you already have.
+- **Claude's Chrome extension?** Great, but it only drives Claude. This drives *any* agent or CLI.
+- **A raw `--remote-debugging-port`** (web-access, etc.)? Chrome 136+ pops **"Allow remote debugging?"** on *every* connect. This never does — one-click Store extension, native messaging.

+## How it works
+
+![how it works](assets/how-it-works.png)
+
+Your **agent-browser CLI** talks to a tiny **browser extension** over Chrome
+**native messaging** — a local inter-process channel, *no network socket, no
+token, no remote server*. The extension uses `chrome.debugger` to drive the tabs
+you target in **your own, already-logged-in Chrome**, then hands results back to
+the CLI. Everything stays on your machine.
+
+![architecture](assets/architecture.png)
+
+Each `--session` gets its **own colored Chrome tab group**, so multiple agents
+can share one real browser concurrently without stepping on each other — or your
+own tabs.
+
+## Why the extension (not a raw debug port)
+
+Other local tools drive Chrome over a raw `--remote-debugging-port` (CDP). Since
+**Chrome 136**, every such connection pops a blocking **"Allow remote debugging?"**
+consent dialog — and the port has to be enabled up front. Our extension uses
+native messaging instead: **install once, then zero per-use confirmation.**

 When using `--launch` mode (standalone browser), a full suite of stealth patches is applied instead, and it still passes the suite above.

+### Human-like input (behavioural stealth)
+
+Fingerprint stealth isn't the whole story — the strongest anti-bot vendors (Akamai, PerimeterX, DataDome) also score *behaviour*. A click that teleports the cursor to an element's exact centre with no approach path and zero press delay is a tell, **even though our CDP events are `isTrusted`**.
+
+With humanize on, the cursor moves like a hand: clicks follow a curved, decelerating Bézier path and land on a jittered point *inside* the element (never the dead centre); typing uses variable inter-keystroke timing; scrolling eases in segments; drags follow a curve. It's **adaptive** — every navigation is probed for known anti-bot vendors (cookies / scripts / globals) and a guarded page auto-escalates to full human motion, while ordinary sites stay instant (zero overhead).
+
+What the page's own `mousemove` stream sees (this *is* what a behavioural detector analyses):
+
+| | trajectory |
+|---|---|
+| **off** (default) | straight lines · dead-centre · instant |
+| **human** | curved trails · slow-in/slow-out · off-centre landings |
+
+Control with `--humanize off\|fast\|human` or `AGENT_BROWSER_HUMANIZE`. Default `off`; the adaptive detector escalates per page.
+
+### Silent operation
+
+Driving your real Chrome should never interrupt your work. The agent operates **entirely in the background**: new tabs open un-focused (in their own colored per-session tab group), the agent **never force-fronts a tab**, and `Emulation.setFocusEmulationEnabled` keeps each agent tab rendering and reporting `document.hasFocus()` / `visibilityState: 'visible'`. So screenshots still work, pages aren't render-throttled, and "the tab was hidden the whole session" never becomes its own bot tell. You keep working in your active tab; the agent works alongside you, silently. (Surfacing a tab stays available as an explicit command.)

+你的 **agent-browser CLI** 通过 Chrome **原生消息（native messaging）** 和一个小**浏览器扩展**通信 —— 这是本机进程间通道，**无网络端口、无 token、无远程服务器**。扩展用 `chrome.debugger` 驱动你指定的标签页（在你**已登录**的 Chrome 里），再把结果交还给 CLI。全程都在你本机。
+
+![架构](assets/architecture.png)
+
+每个 `--session` 拿到**自己的彩色标签组**，多个 agent 共用同一个真实浏览器、互不干扰，也不动你自己的标签页。
+
+## 安装
+
+```bash
+curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/leeguooooo/agent-browser-stealth/main/install.sh | sh
+```
+
+从最新的 [GitHub Release](https://github.com/leeguooooo/agent-browser-stealth/releases) 下载对应平台的预编译二进制，安装 `agent-browser`（以及 `abs` 别名）。无需 npm，无需 token。
+
+### 安装 AI agent skills
+
+```bash
+npx skills add leeguooooo/agent-browser-stealth
+```
+
+把 `skills/agent-browser` 拉进当前项目，让你的 AI agent 拿到正确的用法和预授权的 bash 权限。
+
+## 连接你的 Chrome
+
+**推荐 —— 浏览器扩展（一键，无弹窗）。** 从 Chrome 应用商店安装 [**agent-browser-stealth** 扩展](https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/agent-browser-stealth/knfcmbamhjmaonkfnjhldjedeobeafmk)，再注册一次本地桥：
+
+```bash
+agent-browser extension install      # 注册原生消息 host（一次性）
+agent-browser open https://x.com/home
+```
+
+之后 `agent-browser open` 就通过**原生消息**驱动你真实、已登录的 Chrome —— 无调试端口、无 token、**永远不弹 "Allow remote debugging?"**。扩展自动更新、重启不掉，零确认（适合无人值守 / agent 场景）。
+
+<details>
+<summary>备选 —— 裸 remote-debugging 端口（会弹同意框）</summary>
+
+不装扩展时，agent-browser 退回用 CDP 连接，而 Chrome 只在带 remote-debugging 端口启动时才暴露它：
+
+```bash
+# macOS
+open -a "Google Chrome" --args --remote-debugging-port=9222
+# Linux
+google-chrome --remote-debugging-port=9222
+# Windows: 给 Chrome 快捷方式 target 加 --remote-debugging-port=9222
+```
+
+然后 `agent-browser open <url>` 自动发现端口。首次连接 **Chrome 136+ 会弹 "Allow remote debugging?"** —— 点一次 Allow（该 Chrome 会话内持续有效）。上面的扩展则完全避开这个框。
+</details>
+
+## 用法
+
+```bash
+# 连接你的 Chrome 并导航
+agent-browser open https://example.com
+
+# 一切都在你已登录的浏览器里进行
+agent-browser click "Post"
+agent-browser fill "Title" "Hello World"
+agent-browser screenshot ./page.png
+```
+
+Agent 在你的 Chrome 里操作 —— 你能实时看到开标签、加载、点击。任意时刻都能接管（比如手动过验证码），然后让 agent 继续。
+
+### 独立模式（`--launch`）
+
+```bash
+# 临时：全新空 profile —— 无 cookie 无登录（适合 CI / 测试）
+agent-browser --launch open https://example.com
+
+# 保留登录：用你真实的 Chrome profile 启动
+agent-browser --launch --profile auto open https://x.com/home
+```
+
+## 反检测
+
+连接你真实 Chrome 时，我们**零** JS 注入 —— 浏览器指纹完全是真的。指导原则是 **native CDP/Chrome 覆盖优先于 JS 谎言**：被重定义的 getter 本身可被检测，原生覆盖则不会。
+
+- `navigator.webdriver = false` 走 `Emulation.setAutomationOverride`（原生，CreepJS 类说谎检测查不出）。
+- **`Runtime.enable` 默认关闭** —— 活着的 `Runtime` 域是可被检测的 CDP 信号（patchright/rebrowser 的 "runtime leak"），即便连的是你真实 Chrome。只在你主动开启 console/错误捕获时才启用。
+
+**实测结果（连接真实 Chrome，中继路径）：**
+
+| 检测站 | 结果 |
+|---|---|
+| [CreepJS](https://abrahamjuliot.github.io/creepjs/) | **0% stealth · 0% headless**（零 override 痕迹） |
+| [bot.incolumitas.com](https://bot.incolumitas.com/) | 全部 OK（overflowTest / overrideTest / puppeteerExtraStealth / worker 一致性） |

+| [bot.sannysoft.com](https://bot.sannysoft.com) | 全绿 |
+
+`--launch` 独立模式下会改用一整套隐身补丁，同样过上述检测。
+
+### 类人输入（行为隐身）
+
+指纹隐身只是一半——最强的反爬厂商（Akamai、PerimeterX、DataDome）还会给**行为**打分。点击时光标瞬移到元素正中心、没有接近轨迹、按下即抬起,这本身就是破绽,**哪怕我们的 CDP 事件是 `isTrusted`**。

+开启 humanize 后,光标像手在动:点击走带减速的贝塞尔曲线、落在元素内**偏离正中心**的抖动点;打字用变速的击键间隔;滚动分段缓动;拖拽走曲线。而且**自适应**——每次导航探测页面是否有已知反爬厂商(cookie/脚本/全局变量),命中就自动升到全套类人动作,普通站点保持瞬时(零开销)。
+
+页面自己的 `mousemove` 流看到的(行为检测器分析的正是这个):
+
+| | 轨迹 |
+|---|---|
+| **off**（默认） | 直线 · 死磕正中心 · 瞬时 |
+| **human** | 曲线 · 先慢后快再慢 · 落点偏移 |
+
+用 `--humanize off\|fast\|human` 或 `AGENT_BROWSER_HUMANIZE` 控制。默认 `off`,自适应检测器按页面自动升档。
+
+### 静默操作
+
+操作你的真实 Chrome 不该打断你的工作。agent **全程在后台操作**:新标签后台打开(在自己的彩色会话标签组里),**从不强制把标签拽到前台**,并用 `Emulation.setFocusEmulationEnabled` 让每个 agent 标签照常渲染、`document.hasFocus()` / `visibilityState` 仍报 `visible`。于是截图正常、页面不被降频,"标签全程隐藏"也不会变成新的机器人信号。你在自己的标签里照常工作,agent 在旁边默默干活。(想置顶某个标签仍可显式调用命令。)
+
+## 与上游的差异
+
+基于 [agent-browser v0.27.0](https://github.com/vercel-labs/agent-browser)：
+
+- **默认 auto-connect** —— `agent-browser open` 连你的 Chrome 而非启新的
+- **CDP 原生隐身** —— `Emulation.setAutomationOverride` 而非 JS 补丁
+- **双隐身模式** —— 真实 Chrome 零补丁，`--launch` 全补丁
+- **`--launch` / `--new`** —— 显式启动独立浏览器
+- **CI 自动检测** —— 设了 `CI` 环境变量时走独立模式
+
+所有上游功能（命令、快照、截图、录制、标签、会话等）保持一致。

+//! Human-like input behaviour for stealth.
+//!
+//! When agent-browser drives a real Chrome over CDP, the input events it
+//! dispatches are already `isTrusted` — but a click that teleports the cursor
+//! straight to an element's exact centre, with no approach path and zero delay
+//! between move/press/release, is a behavioural tell that advanced anti-bot
+//! vendors (Akamai, PerimeterX, DataDome) look for.
+//!
+//! This module produces **human-like motion plans** — curved, eased cursor
+//! trajectories and variable keystroke timing — as *pure data*. It performs no
+//! I/O and knows nothing about CDP: callers turn the returned steps into
+//! `Input.dispatchMouseEvent` / `dispatchKeyEvent` calls. Keeping the maths pure
+//! makes the easing/jitter/detection logic unit-testable and deterministic
+//! (every randomised value comes from a caller-supplied seed).
+//!
+//! Design (see brainstorm 2026-06-11):
+//! - Three levels: [`HumanizeLevel::Off`] (instant, today's behaviour),
+//!   `Fast` (a few cheap eased steps), `Human` (full curved trajectory + jitter).
+//! - Baseline is `Off`; the daemon escalates a session to `Human` when
+//!   [`detect_level`] spots a known anti-bot vendor on the page. `--humanize` /
+//!   `AGENT_BROWSER_HUMANIZE` force a fixed level.
+//! - Humanization only changes *how* the cursor reaches a target, never *which*
+//!   element is hit: the landing jitter stays inside the caller-provided bounds.

+Once installed, plain `agent-browser open <url>` auto-connects through the
+extension relay — `auto_connect_cdp` **prefers the live relay over a raw
+`--remote-debugging-port`**, so Chrome 136+'s "Allow remote debugging?" consent
+popup never fires. `agent-browser extension connect` is the explicit form of the

+isolated browser is fine.

+**If you DO hit the "Allow remote debugging?" dialog**, don't keep retrying (every
+attempt re-pops it). One of two things is true:

+   If `which -a agent-browser` shows more than one install, an old **npm/pnpm**
+   copy (the npm registry lags behind — Releases are the source of truth) may be
+   shadowing the upgraded one; remove the stale copy
+   (`npm rm -g agent-browser-stealth` / `pnpm rm -g agent-browser-stealth`) so the
+   `install.sh` build wins. A tool that bundles its *own* pinned copy
+   (e.g. `node .../agent-browser-stealth@0.24.x/.../agent-browser`) needs that
+   copy upgraded too.
+2. **The extension/relay isn't live.** Tell the user to install the Store

+Once loaded, the relay goes live and plain `agent-browser open <url>` connects
+through it automatically — `auto_connect_cdp` prefers the live extension relay
+over a raw `--remote-debugging-port`, so Chrome 136+'s "Allow remote debugging?"
+consent popup never appears. `agent-browser extension connect` is the explicit
+form of the same path.

 **You can do this load step yourself with a computer-use / GUI-automation tool**
 (e.g. the `cua-driver` skill) — drive `chrome://extensions`, toggle Developer
