leeguooooo 528de4230f feat(connect): native-messaging transport — zero-token connect to real Chrome
Optimal architecture (chosen over the WS+token copy): the ab-connect extension
talks to a local agent-browser native-messaging host. No localhost port, no
token — Chrome authenticates the extension to the host by id. This is the
codex/claude-style "install once, no per-use confirmation" model.

- extensions/ab-connect: rewritten transport WebSocket+token → native messaging
  (chrome.runtime.connectNative). Pinned the extension id via a manifest `key`
  (→ bdoiejojpjogcjojeladhioioijhgade) so the host manifest can authorize it.
  Kept the proven chrome.debugger attach + Target.attachedToTarget emulation;
  dropped WS/token/options. Rebranded to "agent-browser connect".
- cli connect.rs: `agent-browser extension install` writes the native-messaging
  host manifest (Chrome/Chromium/Edge/Brave) + a launcher; hidden `__nm-host`
  speaks the 4-byte-length native-messaging framing.

Validated end-to-end on real Chrome: Chrome spawned the host (origin matched the
pinned id) and the extension attached the user's real logged-in tabs, streaming
Target.attachedToTarget over native messaging — zero token, zero port.

Next: bridge the host to the daemon relay (relay.rs) + CdpClient so
`agent-browser click/eval/...` drives those tabs.

The chrome.debugger attach + CDP Target handling in background.js is adapted from openclaw-browser-relay by chengyixu (https://github.com/chengyixu/openclaw-browser-relay, MIT per its README).

Changes for agent-browser-stealth: rebranded to "agent-browser connect"; the transport is rewritten from a localhost WebSocket + shared token to Chrome native messaging (host com.agent_browser.connect) — no port, no token, Chrome authenticates the extension to the host by id. WebSocket/token/options code removed.
