   I'm in South America. I see electric BYD everywhere and not a single Tesla. The same in SEA. Your theory could explain something. Force 'em all to purchase Tesla instead of BYD.

   It is still a dangerous grey area. If Browser Use is acquired by Mega_Corp for the $10B its IP is worth, I would have to prove that my product isn't a derivative of Workflow Use, otherwise, I, or a company that contracts me, am obligat

   (I just opened up the workflow_use and noticed the AGPL license. Given the situation, it is best I don't even open or look at the code. I'm going to have to figure this one out myself. I did watched the video, very cool stuff.)

   My next step will be record / replay of user workflows. I started looking at rrweb and did a search on Github for rrweb and chrome.runtime to look at how people use it in a Chrome extension. workflow-use appeared on the first page of s

   I want to respond to our last interaction here. This is Cordyceps [0]. My Chrome extension port of the typescript port of Browser Use needs some love but it is contained there. I wanted to post the port of a MCP with pure CDP libraryI found

    I like the Chrome fork idea. I imagine in the next couple years, hardware companies, i.e. Apple, Lenovo, will start to ship extremely power local inference hardware as the models become sufficient which your browser will be able to leverage

    Some benefits (without using Chrome.debugger or Chrome DevTools Protocol): 1. There are 3,500,000,000 instances of Chrome desktop being used. [0] 2. A Chrome Extension can be installed with a click from the Chrome Web Store. 3. It is closer

    Absolutely. However, it is easier to start with just Chromium flavor of browsers. The two important concepts from Puppeteer/Playwright are managing the lifecycle of pages (tabs) and frames and the other is using handles / locators
