Plugin Overview & Capabilities

AI-assisted organization based on the public repository snapshot. The content must be grounded in source evidence and does not replace compatibility or security verification.

source-grounded
pi-control-chrome enables DeepSeek Harness, Pi, and Codex agents to control Chrome and Edge browsers using an existing Chromium profile, login state, cookies, and tabs. It utilizes a Manifest V3 extension communicating over a local loopback WebSocket Bridge with native CDP and accessibility-first semantics.

Key Capabilities

  • Drives real Chrome and Edge user profiles, cookies, and login sessions without launching a detached browser instance
  • Manages agent tab lifecycles including tab groups, handoff states, and deliverable tracking
  • Performs semantic page reads and interactions using Chromium accessibility tree (AX) with DOM fallbacks
  • Captures viewport and full-page screenshots, console logs, network events, and downloads
  • Provides 43 browser control tools for DSH with compact responses and bounded evaluation limits
  • Maintains live document-scoped element refs and connection-generation fencing to prevent stale tab actions

Useful For

  • Automating authenticated web workflows reusing existing browser login sessions
  • Inspecting and extracting bounded page content and DOM snapshots for LLM reasoning
  • Conducting UI regression tests and interaction verification using AX-first targeting
  • Capturing viewport screenshots and debugging network/console activity in Chrome or Edge

Who It Fits

  • DSH agent developers needing browser automation within existing browser profiles
  • Automation engineers building web interaction skills
  • Developers seeking unified Chromium browser control across DSH, Codex, and Pi

Documented Limitations

  • Requires manual loading of the unpacked Manifest V3 extension in Chrome or Edge Developer Mode
  • Requires Node.js 22 or newer for the local Bridge server
  • Loopback Bridge on 127.0.0.1:17318 must remain accessible without proxy interference
  • Cross-origin iframe content acts as a diagnostic boundary rather than inline AX nodes
