Chrome CDP Live Browser Skill

Skill by ara.so — Daily 2026 Skills collection

Give your AI agent access to your live Chrome session — the tabs you already have open, your logged-in accounts, and your current page state. Connects directly to Chrome's remote debugging WebSocket with no Puppeteer, no fresh browser instance, and no re-login required.

What It Does

• Read live pages — access Gmail, GitHub, internal tools, anything you're already logged into
• Interact with tabs — click, type, navigate, evaluate JS in your active browser
• Capture state — screenshots, accessibility trees, full HTML, network timing
• Persistent daemons — one lightweight background process per tab, modal appears once, reused silently
• Handles scale — works reliably with 100+ open tabs where Puppeteer-based tools time out

Installation

Enable Remote Debugging in Chrome

Navigate to chrome://inspect/#remote-debugging and toggle the switch. That's it — no flags, no restart needed.
