bunx @mochi.js/cli browsers installstealth_browser manages its own Chromium process. Actions include:
goto, click, type, and scrolltext, evaluate, and screenshotfetchstatus and closeA session is reused across calls. Idle checks reschedule after activity; an attached CDP viewer keeps the session alive. close and extension unload stop Chromium.
On cores with the shared CDP viewer, Open browser in tab displays the existing Stealth Browser. It is view-only until you take control; tool actions refuse execution until you release control. Scale-to-fit preserves the viewport. Optional resizing changes page layout and may affect fingerprint consistency; releasing control restores the native viewport. Closing the pane detaches the viewer without closing Chromium. Mochi 0.9.5 retains its pipe transport; the viewer attaches to a verified loopback endpoint on that same browser. Text and fetch responses are capped at 30,000 characters. Screenshots default to /workspace/tmp/stealth-screenshot.png.
