cdp-tunnel is a Chrome extension and proxy server that bridges Chrome's DevTools Protocol (CDP) to WebSocket, enabling remote browser control via Playwright or Puppeteer. v2.10.9 (stable) supports multiple simultaneous clients with message isolation, auto-reconnect, and a configuration UI. The npm package provides CLI commands (setup, start, status, diagnose) and an extensible proxy. Key differentiators: acts as a Chrome extension rather than requiring a separate Browser instance, allowing you to control an existing user's browser; supports both 'create' and 'takeover' modes for flexible page management. Requires Node.js >=16.
