microsoft/playwright-cli v0.1.8

on GitHub

Highlights

• Remote debugging mode against your local Chrome (#358) — you can now drive the Chrome you already have open, with its existing logins, instead of a sandboxed copy. playwright-cli attach --cdp=chrome (also msedge, chrome-canary, etc.) resolves the channel and connects via chrome://inspect/#remote-debugging. Supports Chrome / Chrome Beta / Dev / Canary and Edge / Edge Beta / Dev / Canary on Linux, macOS, and Windows. (microsoft/playwright#40177)
• Heavy CPU/memory and orphaned Chrome processes (#360) — no more manually killing leftover Chrome processes after long CLI/agent sessions. (microsoft/playwright#40190)

Fixes

• fix(mcp): no tombstones on the server registry level — defaults browserToken to 'chrome' when none is specified (no more undefined in userDataDir paths); simplifies stale-entry cleanup in the server registry; passes force to session stop during delete-data. (#40179)
