Chrome CDP Browser Operator

Use this skill when a real browser session is required and the browser is already open through a dedicated Chrome profile.

Core resources

  • scripts/browser_operator.py attaches to Chrome over CDP, falls back to a local launch when configured, can navigate X, draft guarded replies, and emit notifications.
  • scripts/install_chrome_cdp_browser_operator.py writes a Windows config plus starter scripts.
  • references/cdp-setup.md explains the intended Chrome profile and port setup.

Workflow

  1. Launch Chrome with the dedicated profile and remote debugging enabled.
  2. Run browser_operator.py check to verify that CDP attachment works.
  3. Run browser_operator.py search or run-cycle in draft mode first.
  4. Review the draft bundle before enabling apply mode.
  5. Keep notifications optional and low-noise.

Rules

  • Use the browser skill for real browser presence, not spam or deceptive mass outreach.
  • Keep public replies low volume and reviewable.
  • Prefer draft mode for new workflows.
  • If CDP becomes flaky, use the built-in launch fallback instead of rewriting the whole operator.
