@panerelay/playwright

Optional connection adapter for attaching the upstream Playwright CLI to an existing Chrome or Microsoft Edge session through Panerelay. Choose the current tab for focused work or all supported web tabs for cross-page workflows; active control remains separately visible and releasable. Chrome is the verified baseline; Edge remains Forwarded pending its complete command matrix.

Setup and use

Install Playwright CLI 0.1.17 or newer separately, then run:

npx --yes @panerelay/setup --playwright
npx --yes @panerelay/setup doctor --playwright
playwright-cli attach --cdp http://127.0.0.1:43827/cdp/playwright
playwright-cli tab-list
playwright-cli tab-select <tab-id-from-tab-list>
playwright-cli tab-list
playwright-cli snapshot

Choose the intended authorized tab ID from the first tab-list result. After tab-select, run tab-list again and confirm the intended tab is selected before continuing.

New Side Panel conversations may instead inject a reserved 56-character -s=panerelay-v2-... session and a target-scoped /cdp/playwright/target/... attach URL. Use both exact values, then run tab-list, tab-select 0, and tab-list again. Panerelay validates the compact reversible browser/target pair against the current authorized inventory and exposes that page first without changing Playwright CLI. A malformed, legacy, stale, or unauthorized target fails closed; do not shorten the session, retry through the unscoped URL, or match URL/title.

The setup package verifies the upstream executable and installs only Panerelay-owned adapter metadata. It does not install a shim, modify PATH or shell startup files, write .playwright/cli.config.json, set Playwright as a default, or manage an Agent Skill. The independently installed panerelay-browser Skill contains the Playwright workflow.

For explicit user-managed configuration, set PLAYWRIGHT_MCP_CDP_ENDPOINT=http://127.0.0.1:43827/cdp/playwright or configure browser.cdpEndpoint in .playwright/cli.config.json.

The connection exposes the authorization scope selected in Panerelay: the current tab or all supported existing Chromium tabs. Isolated BrowserContexts, browser launch options, proxy ownership, and whole-browser close are unsupported and fail explicitly.
