Chrome Cdp Live Browser

This connects Claude directly to your running Chrome browser via CDP, not a fresh headless instance. That means it can interact with tabs where you're already logged in, see your current page state, and work with your actual session. The persistent daemon design means you approve debugging once per tab instead of getting nagged every command. Commands cover the usual automation needs: screenshots, accessibility trees, clicking elements, typing text, evaluating JavaScript, and navigating. The loadall command for pagination is a nice touch. Requires Node.js 22+ and flipping the remote debugging toggle in chrome://inspect. Built for AI agents that need to work with real web sessions rather than isolated browser instances.

chrome-cdp: Live Chrome Session for AI Agents

Skill by ara.so — Daily 2026 Skills collection.

chrome-cdp connects your AI agent directly to your running Chrome browser via the Chrome DevTools Protocol (CDP). Unlike browser automation tools that spin up fresh isolated browsers, this connects to tabs you already have open — with your logins, cookies, and current page state intact.

What It Does

  • Live session access — reads and interacts with tabs you're already logged into
  • Persistent daemon — one WebSocket daemon per tab; the "Allow debugging" modal appears once, not on every command
  • No npm install — only Node.js 22+ required
  • 100+ tab support — handles large numbers of open tabs reliably
  • Cross-origin iframe support — type command works even inside cross-origin iframes
