Stealth fork of 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.
agent-browser launches a fresh browser with an empty profile. You need to log in again, and websites can detect it's automated.
agent-browser-stealth connects to your existing Chrome. Your cookies, sessions, and browser fingerprint are all real — because it IS your real browser.
| agent-browser | agent-browser-stealth | |
|---|---|---|
| Browser | Launches new Chrome | Connects to your Chrome |
| Login state | Empty, need to re-login | Your existing sessions |
| Fingerprint | Automation markers present | Your real fingerprint |
| User collaboration | Separate window | Same window, take over anytime |
| CAPTCHA | Agent stuck | You solve it, agent continues |
npm install -g agent-browser-stealthEnable Chrome DevTools Protocol in your Chrome:
- Open
chrome://inspect/#remote-debuggingin Chrome - Toggle the switch on
That's it. This setting persists across Chrome restarts.
# Connect to your Chrome and navigate
agent-browser open https://example.com
# Everything works through your logged-in browser
agent-browser click "Post"
agent-browser fill "Title" "Hello World"
agent-browser screenshot ./page.pngThe agent operates in your Chrome — you'll see tabs opening, pages loading, clicks happening in real time. You can take over at any point (e.g. solve a CAPTCHA), then let the agent continue.
If you need a separate browser (CI, testing, etc.):
agent-browser --launch open https://example.comIn CI environments, standalone mode is used automatically.
When connected to your real Chrome, we inject zero JavaScript patches. Your browser's fingerprint is completely genuine.
The only thing we do is call Emulation.setAutomationOverride via CDP to set navigator.webdriver = false at the native Chrome level — undetectable by lie-detection systems like CreepJS.
Test results (connected to real Chrome):
| Test site | Result |
|---|---|
| CreepJS | 0% stealth, 0% headless |
| bot.sannysoft.com | All green |
| Cloudflare Turnstile | Passed |
When using --launch mode (standalone browser), a full suite of 32 stealth patches is applied for headless Chrome.
Based on agent-browser v0.24.0. Changes:
- Auto-connect is default —
agent-browser open <url>connects to your Chrome instead of launching a new one - CDP-native stealth —
Emulation.setAutomationOverrideinstead of JS patches - Dual stealth mode — zero patches for real Chrome, full patches for
--launchmode --launch/--newflag — explicitly start a standalone browser- CI auto-detection — standalone mode when
CIenv var is set
