iso-browser

iso-browser is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from IsaiaScope/ai. It costs 166 tokens per session (1,269 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A browser connection tool that attaches an agent to the browser session you are already using, including its signed-in tabs. It can check or configure supported agent clients and browser connection settings.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to inspect browser connection status, diagnose setup problems, configure an agent client, or launch Chrome for browser automation.
Why use it?
Default automated browsers often use an empty, signed-out profile, so they cannot reach the pages you already opened. This avoids asking the automation to handle your credentials.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

iso-browser scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 1mo ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 2 executable files (scripts/browser.sh, scripts/browser.test.sh), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 104 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

iso-browser

Browser automation defaults to a throwaway profile, which is signed out of everything and therefore useless for the tasks people actually want automated. This skill connects to the browser the user is already using.

Invocation: /iso-browser [status | doctor | setup | launch]. Default status.

Command What it does
status Prints the resolved config and the live state — Chrome running, CDP reachable, MCP entry.
agents Lists the agents installed on this machine and which already know the browser server.
doctor Checks every prerequisite and names the fix for each failure. Exit code is the failure count.
setup Adds the connect flag to the MCP entry, backing the file up first. Requires an MCP-client restart.
launch browser-url mode only: starts Chrome on the debug port with a dedicated profile.

All four run scripts/browser.sh. This file describes the surface; it holds no logic.

The rule that matters

Never type credentials into an automated browser. Attach to a session the user already established. Signing in is theirs to do; driving the result is yours. Beyond being a boundary worth keeping, it does not work: Google refuses OAuth from a CDP-controlled browser with "This browser or app may not be secure." Attaching to an already-authenticated session never triggers it.

Connect modes

Set browser.connect in ~/.config/iso/iso.json.

Mode Uses the real profile? Cost
autoConnect (default) yes Chrome 144+; user approves once at chrome://inspect/#remote-debugging
browser-url no — Chrome 136+ forbids the default profile with a debug port one login per site, in that profile
isolated no the built-in default; signed out of everything

Prefer autoConnect. The other two exist for older Chrome and for throwaway work.

Any agent, not just one

agents reports every known agent config on the machine and whether each already has the browser server. mcp_config defaults to auto, which prefers the config that already knows the server and otherwise takes the first that exists — so nothing needs configuring on a typical machine.

What ships with it

5 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
