This version may not be on the Chrome Web Store yet. Store updates wait for Chrome review, which can take days.
- Chrome menus: right-click a page or the extension icon for Playwriter actions. Copy Playwriter Locator for this element works on any tab, even before you enable Playwriter on it. While sharing, the menus also have Copy remote agent prompt, Copy remote id and Stop sharing. Short toasts and a sound confirm each copy.
- Smaller in-page toolbar: it starts as a small tab at the top center of the page. Click it to open the full toolbar;
×collapses it again. No hover expansion or dragging. Record Skill and Remote control start from the toolbar. - No
tabCapturepermission: screen recording and streaming now use CDP screencast + ffmpeg, so no extension click is needed to record. - Ghost cursor hidden until the agent uses the mouse, then fades out after 5 seconds idle.
- Fixed the page closing when another extension injects an iframe (1Password and other password managers). The extension removes the iframe and reattaches with the same session, so the agent's
pagekeeps working. - Fixed child tabs missing from
context.pages()when Chrome opens them inside a Playwriter group without a later group-change event. - Remote control keepalive every 20 seconds instead of 30, so idle shared browsers stay connected without keeping the tunnel awake.
- Better welcome page: the agent install prompt explains what Playwriter can do, and CLI examples fit on one line.
