Browser Profiles
| Profile | Type | Port | Use Case |
|---|---|---|---|
| chrome | Relay (your actual Chrome) | 18792 | X.com, paranoid sites, full auth |
| fast | Headless Chromium | 9223 | General automation, tolerant sites |
| clawd | Headless (managed) | 18800 | Default, no auth |
Chrome Relay (profile="chrome") — Best for authenticated sites
Attaches to your actual Chrome browser via extension. No session copying, no detection issues.
Setup (one-time):
- Extension installed at
~/.clawdbot/browser/chrome-extension - Load in Chrome:
chrome://extensions→ Developer mode → Load unpacked - Pin the extension to toolbar
Usage:
- Navigate to site in Chrome, make sure you're logged in
- Click the Clawdbot extension icon (badge shows ON)
- I use
browser(profile="chrome")to control that tab
When to use Chrome Relay:
- X.com (very aggressive bot detection)
- Sites requiring 2FA/login you've already completed
- Anything that blocks headless browsers
Headless Chromium (profile="fast") — For general automation
Runs headless with synced cookies from Chrome. Some paranoid sites (X.com) detect and block it.
Setup script: ~/clawd/scripts/browser-setup.sh
scripts/browser-setup.sh start-login # Open Chrome, login to sites
scripts/browser-setup.sh sync # Close Chrome first! Then sync
scripts/browser-setup.sh start-headless # Start headless on port 9223
scripts/browser-setup.sh status # Check what's running
scripts/browser-setup.sh stop # Stop all
⚠️ Important: Close Chrome before running sync — copying a live profile invalidates sessions!
Usage: browser(action="...", profile="fast")
Browsing Tips
- Use
web_fetchfor simple page reads (faster, cheaper than full browser) - Use
browserwhen you need JavaScript rendering, interactions, or auth - For large pages, use
maxCharson snapshots to avoid context bloat - Keep
targetIdfrom snapshot responses for stable tab references
bird (X/Twitter CLI)
- Wrapper:
~/clawd/scripts/bird(sets auth tokens automatically) - Config:
~/.config/bird/config.json5(tokens stored but not read properly - use wrapper) - Usage:
~/clawd/scripts/bird read <tweet-id>orbird read <url> - Commands:
bird search,bird home,bird mentions,bird news,bird user-tweets @handle - For X.com access — use bird instead of browser (faster, no bot detection issues)
- Auth: Using @johanjongsma account
Proton Mail Bridge (Headless)
- Service:
systemctl --user status protonmail-bridge - Account: tj@jongsma.me (Tanya & Johan Jongsma)
- IMAP: 127.0.0.1:1143 (STARTTLS)
- SMTP: 127.0.0.1:1025 (STARTTLS)
- Bridge Password: BlcMCKtNDfqv0cq1LmGR9g
- Keychain:
pass(no gnome-keyring needed) - Config:
~/.config/protonmail/bridge-v3/prefs.json→{"preferred_keychain": "pass"}
Message Bridge (WhatsApp backend) - whatsmeow
- Service:
systemctl --user status message-bridge - Port: 8030
- Source:
/home/johan/dev/message-bridge/ - Data:
~/.message-bridge/ - Linked Number: +1 727 225 2475 (Johan's ThinkPhone)
- Note: MC wraps this — use MC API for WhatsApp, not this directly
Direct API (for debugging):
GET /status- connection statusGET /messages- list messagesGET /qr?format=png- QR code for linking (if disconnected)POST /send- send message
Message Center (MC) - Unified Messaging API
- Service:
systemctl --user status mail-bridge - Port: 8025
- Source:
/home/johan/dev/mail-bridge/(branch: mc-unified) - Data:
~/.message-center/(cursors.json, orchestration.db) - Health:
curl http://localhost:8025/health
Connectors:
tj_jongsma_me— IMAP (tj@jongsma.me via Proton Bridge)johan_jongsma_me— IMAP (johan@jongsma.me via Proton Bridge)whatsapp— HTTP wrapper for message-bridge on port 8030
Unified API:
GET /messages/new— unseen messages from all sourcesGET /messages?since=24h— replay windowGET /messages/{id}— single messagePOST /messages/ack— advance consumer cursor
Actions:
POST /messages/{id}/archive— mark seen/archivePOST /messages/{id}/delete— delete messagePOST /messages/{id}/reply— send reply{"body": "..."}POST /messages/{id}/to-docs— forward attachments to ~/documents/inbox/
Orchestration DB: ~/.message-center/orchestration.db
- Tracks: first_seen, last_action, acked_by per message
- Actions persist across restarts
Webhook: POSTs {"event": "new"} to http://localhost:18789/hooks/messages
Commands
/screenshot→ Pull latest screenshot from Mac desktop (uses screenshot skill)
Why Separate?
Skills are shared. Your setup is yours. Keeping them apart means you can update skills without losing your notes, and share skills without leaking your infrastructure.
Add whatever helps you do your job. This is your cheat sheet.
