Phase B — every H1–H9 from `docs/02-features/fix-plan.md` shipped one
|
|
6
|
+
commit each, plus the post-Phase-B code-review fixes. Two new modules
|
|
7

of functionality (iframe pipeline, download capture), two new public
|
|
8
|
+
API methods (`reload`, `onDialog`), six new MCP tools, opt-in `eval`,
|
|
9
|
+
per-tool MCP timeouts, full stealth coverage, and a tightened bot-
|
|
10
|
+
detection heuristic. 23 new regression tests. 123/123 tests pass.

### Iframe / OOPIF support (H2)
|
|
16
|
+
- `Accessibility.getFullAXTree` stops at frame boundaries; pre-H2,
|
|
17
|
+
Stripe, reCAPTCHA, embedded login forms, and most ads were invisible.
|
|
18
|
+
- `createPage()` now wires `Target.setAutoAttach({autoAttach: true,
|
|
19
|
+
flatten: true})` and listens for `Target.attachedToTarget` to register
|
|
20
|
+
every iframe's CDP session in a `framesByFrameId` map (recursive).
|
|
21
|
+
- `ariaTree()` walks `Page.getFrameTree`, fetches each frame's AX tree
|
|
22
|
+
on the right session (child for OOPIF, main with `frameId` param for
|
|
23
|
+
same-origin), splices children under iframe placeholders identified
|
|
24
|
+
via `DOM.getFrameOwner`.
|
|
25
|
+
- Refs are globally unique via a flat counter shared across frames;
|
|
26
|
+
refMap stores `{session, backendNodeId}` so `click`/`type`/`hover`/
|
|
27
|
+
`select`/`upload` route to the correct CDP session. Visible
|
|
28
|
+
`[ref=N]` format unchanged.
|
|
29
|
+
- `--site-per-process` added to launch flags so every iframe (including
|
|
30
|
+
same-origin) becomes OOPIF with a dedicated session — required
|
|
31
|
+
because `DOM.getBoxModel` returns frame-local coords while
|
|
32
|
+
`Input.dispatchMouseEvent` on the parent session uses parent-viewport
|
|
33
|
+
coords; OOPIF gives each frame its own Input domain.
|
|
34
|
+
- `drag()` between elements in different frames now errors rather than
|
|
35
|
+
mixing sessions.
|
|
36
|
+
|
|
37
|
+
### Attach to a running browser (H1)
|
|
38
|
+
- `connect({port: 9222})` attaches to a Chromium the user already
|
|
39
|
+
started (`chromium --remote-debugging-port=9222`). New
|
|
40
|
+
`attach({port})` helper in `chromium.js` returns a browser handle
|
|
41
|
+
with `process: null, ownedProfileDir: null` so `cleanupBrowser` is
|
|
42
|
+
a no-op — we never kill or clean up a browser we didn't start.
|
|
43
|
+
- Attach mode skips stealth (would persist via
|
|
44
|
+
`addScriptToEvaluateOnNewDocument`), `Browser.setPermission`
|
|
45
|
+
(browser-wide — would leak deny-states), download capture (don't
|
|
46
|
+
override the user's preference), and the two hybrid-fallback rewind
|
|
47
|
+
branches in `goto()` (we don't own the browser).
|
|
48
|
+
- `close()` still closes the tab we created; the browser keeps running.
|
|
49
|
+
|
|
50
|
+
### Downloads (H7)
|
|
51
|
+
- `Browser.setDownloadBehavior({behavior: 'allowAndName',
|
|
52
|
+
downloadPath, eventsEnabled: true})` wired in `connect()`. Falls
|
|
53
|
+
back to `'allow'` on older Chrome; silent if neither works (downloads
|
|
54
|
+
still happen, just unobserved).
|
|
55
|
+
- Per-session `mkdtemp('/tmp/barebrowse-dl-*')` cleaned up on `close()`;
|
|
56
|
+
caller-supplied `opts.downloadPath` left alone.
|
|
57
|
+
- Live `page.downloads` array of `{guid, url, suggestedFilename,
|
|
58
|
+
savedPath, state, totalBytes, receivedBytes}`. Listeners registered
|
|
59
|
+
BEFORE `setDownloadBehavior` is sent (event ordering).
|
|
60
|
+
- Skipped entirely in attach mode.
|
|
61
|
+
|
|
62
|
+
### Stealth completeness (H4)
|
|
63
|
+
- `Network.setUserAgentOverride` strips "HeadlessChrome" from the UA in
|
|
64
|
+
HTTP request headers AND `navigator.userAgent`. UA read from
|
|
65
|
+
`Browser.getVersion` so version/platform fields stay accurate across
|
|
66
|
+
Chromium releases.
|
|
67
|
+
- New JS patches: `WebGLRenderingContext`/`WebGL2` `getParameter`
|
|
68
|
+
spoofs `UNMASKED_VENDOR_WEBGL` / `UNMASKED_RENDERER_WEBGL` to
|
|
69
|
+
Intel pair (the single most-used headless fingerprint);
|
|
70
|
+
`navigator.hardwareConcurrency` = 8; `navigator.deviceMemory` = 8;
|
|
71
|
+
full `chrome.runtime` enum shape (PlatformOs, OnInstalledReason,
|
|
72
|
+
etc.); `Notification` constructor + `permission: 'default'`;
|
|
73
|
+
`Permissions.query('notifications')` mirrors `Notification.permission`
|
|
74
|
+
instead of returning hardcoded `'prompt'`.
|
|
75
|
+
|
|
76
|
+
### Bot-detection heuristic tightened (H9)
|
|
77
|
+
- Pre-H9 `nodeCount < 50` alone flagged any minimal legitimate page;
|
|
78
|
+
generic phrases `access denied`/`unknown error`/`permission denied`
|
|
79
|
+
flagged real HTTP 4xx/5xx pages, kicking hybrid into a costly
|
|
80
|
+
headed launch for nothing.
|
|
81
|
+
- Split into STRONG_PHRASES (Cloudflare's "Just a moment", "Attention
|
|
82
|
+
Required", "verify you are human" etc. — fire alone regardless of
|
|
83
|
+
size) and WEAK_PHRASES (generic phrases — only fire when ALSO
|
|
84
|
+
tiny: `nodeCount < 30` or `text.length < 50`). Pure low-node-count
|
|
85
|
+
without a phrase no longer flags. `isChallengePage` exported so
|
|
86
|
+
tests can pin the contract.
|
|
87
|
+
|
|
88
|
+
### New connect() methods
|
|
89
|
+
- **H3** `page.reload({ignoreCache, timeout})` — `Page.reload` wrapper
|
|
90
|
+
with same SPA-fallback semantics as `goBack`/`goForward`. Clears
|
|
91
|
+
`refMap` so pre-reload refs reject.
|
|
92
|
+
- **H8** `page.onDialog(handler)` — handler receives
|
|
93
|
+
`{type, message, defaultPrompt}` and may return `{accept, promptText}`
|
|
94
|
+
to override the default auto-accept. Pass `null` to restore.
|
|
95
|
+
Persistent across hybrid fallback / `switchTab` / `createTab` —
|
|
96
|
+
every `setupDialogHandler` reads the same closure.
|
|
97
|
+
- **H7** `page.downloads` — live array (see above).
|
|
98
|
+
|
|
99
|
+
### MCP server (H5 + H6)
|
|
100
|
+
- **H5:** new `TIMEOUTS` table replacing the blanket 30s — `goto`/
|
|
101
|
+
`reload`/`wait_for` 60s; `back`/`forward` 30s; `click`/`type`/
|
|
102
|
+
`press`/`scroll`/`hover`/`select`/`drag`/`snapshot`/`eval` 15s;
|
|
103
|
+
`tabs` 5s; `pdf`/`screenshot`/`upload` 45s.
|
|
104
|
+
- **H6:** six new tools — `reload`, `screenshot`, `wait_for`, `tabs`
|
|
105
|
+
(with optional `switchTo: N`), `select`, `hover`. All wired through
|
|
106
|
+
the right `TIMEOUTS[name]`; mutating tools use `{retry: false}`.
|
|
107
|
+
- **H6 opt-in:** `eval` tool registered only when
|
|
108
|
+
`BAREBROWSE_MCP_EVAL=1` is set. `Runtime.evaluate` in an
|
|
109
|
+
authenticated session is the load-bearing risk (cookies/localStorage
|
|
110
|
+
exfiltration). CLI/connect()/daemon keep `eval`; MCP gates it.
|
|
111
|
+
- `TIMEOUTS` and `TOOLS` exported; `runStdio()` exported so `cli.js`
|
|
112
|
+
can launch the JSON-RPC loop explicitly (the earlier auto-start
|
|
113
|
+
isMain guard broke `npx barebrowse mcp` — caught in code review).
|
|
114
|
+
- `serverInfo.version` now reads from `package.json` (was hardcoded
|
|
115
|
+
'0.7.1' — drift caught in same review).
|
|
116
|
+
|
|
117
|
+
### CLI / daemon parity
|
|
118
|
+
- `barebrowse reload [--no-cache]` and `barebrowse downloads`
|
|
119
|
+
subcommands added.
|
|
120
|
+
- `--download-path=DIR` flag plumbs through `startDaemon` →
|
|
121
|
+
`runDaemonInternal` → `connect()`.
|
|
122
|
+
|
|
123
|
+
### bareagent adapter
|
|
124
|
+
- Three new tools: `reload`, `wait_for`, `downloads`. `onDialog`
|
|
125
|
+
intentionally stays connect()-only (callback shape doesn't fit
|
|
126
|
+
tool loop).
|
|
127
|
+
|
|
128
|
+
### MCP config diagnostics (post-Phase-B follow-up)
|
|
129
|
+
- **`barebrowse doctor`** scans every known MCP config location
|
|
130
|
+
(Claude Code user/project/local, Claude Desktop, Cursor, VS Code)
|
|
131
|
+
for `barebrowse` entries. Prints CONFLICT + both endpoint paths
|
|
132
|
+
when scopes diverge. Closes the "Conflicting scopes" warning
|
|
133
|
+
Claude Code surfaces but barebrowse itself was silent about.
|
|
134
|
+
- **`barebrowse install`** detects existing entries with a different
|
|
135
|
+
endpoint and refuses to overwrite without `--force` — was
|
|
136
|
+
silently clobbering, which is how scope conflicts accumulated in
|
|
137
|
+
the first place.
|
|
138
|
+
- **`barebrowse mcp`** writes a one-line stderr banner at startup
|
|
139
|
+
(`barebrowse mcp v<X.Y.Z> | serving from <abs path> | pid <N>`)
|
|
140
|
+
so a stuck agent is diagnosable from the MCP log.
|
|
141
|
+
|
|
142
|
+
### Test infrastructure
|
|
143
|
+
- **`cleanupBrowser` profile-dir rm hardened** to 25×100ms±jitter
|
|
144
|
+
(was 10×100ms). `--site-per-process` from H2 spawns a renderer
|
|
145
|
+
per iframe; under parallel test load the old 1s window wasn't
|
|
146
|
+
always enough to absorb post-exit file flushing.
|
|
147
|
+
|
|
148
|
+
### Tests
|
|
149
|
+
- 27 new regression tests across `connect.test.js` (H1, H2, H3, H7,
|
|
150
|
+
H8), `stealth.test.js` (H4 — new file), `mcp.test.js` (H5 timeouts,
|
|
151
|
+
H6 tool surface + eval env-var gating, npx cli.js mcp regression),
|
|
152
|
+
`challenge.test.js` (H9 — new file, 9 cases), `cli.test.js`
|
|
153
|
+
(reload + downloads subcommands, plus the four MCP-config-
|
|
154
|
+
diagnostics tests for doctor + install --force + mcp banner).
|
|
155
|
+
Total: 127 (54 unit + 73 integration).
|
|
156
|
+
|
|
157
|

## 0.8.0
|
|
158
|
+
|
|
159
|
+
Stability release — 11 fixes from the QA review of 2026-05-17. Adds a
|
|
160
|
+
new module (`network-idle.js`), introduces `cleanupBrowser()` helper,
|
|
161
|
+
and forwards `binary`/`userDataDir` opts through `connect()`/`browse()`.
|
|
162
|
+
17 new regression tests. 97/97 tests pass.
|
|
163
|
+
|
|
164
|
+
See `docs/02-features/fix-plan.md` for the full scope and the per-fix
|
|
165
|
+
entries in `docs/03-logs/bug-log.md`. Headlines:
|
|
166
|
+
|
|
167
|
+
### Lifecycle & cleanup
|
|
168
|
+
- **F2/F3:** Temp profile dirs no longer leak. New `cleanupBrowser()` helper
|
|
169
|
+
awaits process exit, retries `rmSync` on ENOTEMPTY/EBUSY. On parent
|
|
170
|
+
crash, module-level `process.on('exit'|'SIGINT'|'SIGTERM'|'SIGHUP')`
|
|
171
|
+
handlers SIGKILL all tracked browsers and reap their dirs.
|
|
172
|
+
- **F1:** `page.cdp` escape hatch is now a getter — survives hybrid
|
|
173
|
+
fallback / `switchTab` swapping the underlying session. Previously
|
|
174
|
+
`daemon.js` console + network listeners silently died after any
|
|
175
|
+
fallback.
|
|
176
|
+
|
|
177
|
+
### Correctness fixes
|
|
178
|
+
- **F4:** `switchTab(idx)` now actually swaps the working CDP session
|
|
179
|
+
(re-attaches and rebinds the closure). Was only foregrounding the tab.
|
|
180
|
+
- **F5:** `goto()` invalidates `refMap` so stale refs from the prior page
|
|
181
|
+
error clearly instead of resolving wrong-element clicks.
|
|
182
|
+
- **F8:** `goBack()`/`goForward()` await `Page.loadEventFired` instead of
|
|
183
|
+
a fixed 500ms sleep — snapshots taken immediately after now reliably
|
|
184
|
+
reflect the new page. Also invalidate `refMap`.
|
|
185
|
+
- **F9:** `waitForNetworkIdle` extracted to `src/network-idle.js`; uses a
|
|
186
|
+
Set of requestIds so orphan finish events can't drive the tracker
|
|
187
|
+
negative and resolve early.
|
|
188
|
+
|
|
189
|
+
### MCP server
|
|
190
|
+
- **F6:** `withRetry({ retry: false })` for state-mutating tools
|
|
191
|
+
(`click`/`type`/`press`/`scroll`/`back`/`forward`/`drag`/`upload`).
|
|
192
|
+
Idempotent tools (`goto`/`snapshot`/`pdf`) keep the retry default.
|
|
193
|
+
Mutating ops no longer double-submit on a fresh blank page after a
|
|
194
|
+
partial first attempt.
|
|
195
|
+
- `browse`/`goto` tool descriptions reworded to position `browse` as the
|
|
196
|
+
headless fallback (not a competitor to WebFetch) and `goto` as the
|
|
197
|
+
explicit interactive-session entrypoint.
|
|
198
|
+
|
|
199
|
+
### Tab handling
|
|
200
|
+
- **F7:** `createTab()` wires the dialog handler on the new tab's
|
|
201
|
+
session — JS dialogs in sub-tabs no longer hang navigation forever.
|
|
202
|
+
|
|
203
|
+
### API
|
|
204
|
+
- **L2:** `connect()`/`browse()` now honor `binary` and `userDataDir`
|
|
205
|
+
opts (forwarded through all `launch()` calls including hybrid
|
|
206
|
+
fallback). `port` opt for attach-to-running-browser is queued for the
|
|
207
|
+
next release (H1 in `fix-plan.md`).
|
|
208
|
+
- **L1:** Dropped dead `strictPatterns` block in `consent.js`.
|
|
209
|
+
|
|
210
|
+
### Tests
|
|
211
|
+
- 17 new regression tests across `cdp.test.js`, `mcp.test.js`,
|
|
212
|
+
`network-idle.test.js`, `connect.test.js` + a subprocess fixture
|
|
213
|
+
(`test/fixtures/launch-and-wait.mjs`). Total: 97 (44 unit + 53
|
|
214
|
+
integration).
|
|
215
|
+
|
|
216
|
+
## 0.7.1
|
|
217
|
+
|
|
218
|
+
Fix: timeout now triggers auto-retry instead of bypassing it.
|
|
219
|
+
|
|
220
|
+
### Bug fix (`mcp-server.js`)
|
|
221
|
+
- **Root cause:** The 30s timeout was a `Promise.race` *outside* `withRetry()`. When a page timed out, the race rejected immediately — `withRetry` never got a chance to reset the session and retry. Timeouts also didn't match `isCdpDead()`, so even if they did reach `withRetry`, they wouldn't be retried.
|
|
222
|
+
- **Fix:** Moved per-attempt timeout *inside* `withRetry()`. Each attempt gets its own 30s deadline. On timeout or CDP death, the session resets and a fresh attempt runs. The outer `Promise.race` is removed entirely.
|
|
223
|
+
- `isCdpDead()` renamed to `isTransient()` — now also matches timeout errors (`"Timeout waiting for CDP event"`, `"timed out"`)
|
|
224
|
+
- Non-transient errors (validation, unknown tool) are still not retried
|
|
225
|
+
|
|
226
|
+
### Tests
|
|
227
|
+
- 11 new unit tests in `test/unit/mcp.test.js`: `isTransient` detection (CDP death, timeouts, non-transient), `withRetry` behavior (success, CDP retry, timeout retry, no-retry for validation, double-failure, no-timeout mode)
|
|
228
|
+
- 80 total tests (39 unit + 41 integration)
|

|
|
66
|
+
|
|
67
|
+
2. Grant of Copyright License. Subject to the terms and conditions of
|
|
68
|
+
this License, each Contributor hereby grants to You a perpetual,
|
|
69
|
+
worldwide, non-exclusive, no-charge, royalty-free, irrevocable
|
|
70
|
+
copyright license to reproduce, prepare Derivative Works of,
|
|
71
|
+
publicly display, publicly perform, sublicense, and distribute the
|
|
72
|
+
Work and such Derivative Works in Source or Object form.
|
|
73
|
+
|
|
74
|
+
3. Grant of Patent License. Subject to the terms and conditions of
|
|
75
|
+
this License, each Contributor hereby grants to You a perpetual,
|
|
76
|
+
worldwide, non-exclusive, no-charge, royalty-free, irrevocable
|
|
77

(except as stated in this section) patent license to make, have made,
|
|
78
|
+
use, offer to sell, sell, import, and otherwise transfer the Work,
|
|
79
|
+
where such license applies only to those patent claims licensable
|
|
80
|
+
by such Contributor that are necessarily infringed by their
|
|
81
|
+
Contribution(s) alone or by combination of their Contribution(s)
|
|
82
|
+
with the Work to which such Contribution(s) was submitted. If You
|
|
83
|
+
institute patent litigation against any entity (including a
|
|
84
|
+
cross-claim or counterclaim in a lawsuit) alleging that the Work
|
|
85
|
+
or a Contribution incorporated within the Work constitutes direct
|
|
86
|
+
or contributory patent infringement, then any patent licenses
|
|
87
|
+
granted to You under this License for that Work shall terminate
|
|
88
|
+
as of the date such litigation is filed.
|
|
89
|
+
|
|
90
|
+
4. Redistribution. You may reproduce and distribute copies of the
|
|
91
|
+
Work or Derivative Works thereof in any medium, with or without
|
|
92
|
+
modifications, and in Source or Object form, provided that You
|
|
93
|
+
meet the following conditions:
|
|
94
|
+
|
|
95
|
+
(a) You must give any other recipients of the Work or
|
|
96
|
+
Derivative Works a copy of this License; and
|
|
97
|
+
|
|
98
|
+
(b) You must cause any modified files to carry prominent notices
|
|
99
|
+
stating that You changed the files; and
|
|
100
|
+
|
|
101
|
+
(c) You must retain, in the Source form of any Derivative Works
|
|
102
|
+
that You distribute, all copyright, patent, trademark, and
|
|
103
|
+
attribution notices from the Source form of the Work,
|
|
104
|
+
excluding those notices that do not pertain to any part of
|
|
105
|
+
the Derivative Works; and
|
|
106
|
+
|
|
107
|
+
(d) If the Work includes a "NOTICE" text file as part of its
|
|
108
|
+
distribution, then any Derivative Works that You distribute must
|
|
109
|
+
include a readable copy of the attribution notices contained
|
|
110
|
+
within such NOTICE file, excluding those notices that do not
|
|
111
|
+
pertain to any part of the Derivative Works, in at least one
|
|
112
|
+
of the following places: within a NOTICE text file distributed
|
|
113
|
+
as part of the Derivative Works; within the Source form or
|
|
114
|
+
documentation, if provided along with the Derivative Works; or,
|
|
115
|
+
within a display generated by the Derivative Works, if and
|
|
116
|
+
wherever such third-party notices normally appear. The contents
|
|
117
|
+
of the NOTICE file are for informational purposes only and
|
|
118
|
+
do not modify the License. You may add Your own attribution
|
|
119
|
+
notices within Derivative Works that You distribute, alongside
|
|
120
|
+
or as an addendum to the NOTICE text from the Work, provided
|
|
121
|
+
that such additional attribution notices cannot be construed
|
|
122
|
+
as modifying the License.
|
|
123
|
+
|
|
124
|
+
You may add Your own copyright statement to Your modifications and
|
|
125
|
+
may provide additional or different license terms and conditions
|
|
126
|
+
for use, reproduction, or distribution of Your modifications, or
|
|
127
|
+
for any such Derivative Works as a whole, provided Your use,
|
|
128
|
+
reproduction, and distribution of the Work otherwise complies with
|
|
129
|
+
the conditions stated in this License.
|
|
130
|
+
|
|
131
|
+
5. Submission of Contributions. Unless You explicitly state otherwise,
|
|
132
|
+
any Contribution intentionally submitted for inclusion in the Work
|
|
133
|
+
by You to the Licensor shall be under the terms and conditions of
|
|
134
|
+
this License, without any additional terms or conditions.
|
|
135
|
+
Notwithstanding the above, nothing herein shall supersede or modify
|
|
136
|
+
the terms of any separate license agreement you may have executed
|
|
137
|
+
with Licensor regarding such Contributions.
|
|
138
|
+
|
|
139
|
+
6. Trademarks. This License does not grant permission to use the trade
|
|
140
|
+
names, trademarks, service marks, or product names of the Licensor,
|
|
141
|
+
except as required for reasonable and customary use in describing the
|
|
142
|
+
origin of the Work and reproducing the content of the NOTICE file.
|
|
143
|
+
|
|
144
|
+
7. Disclaimer of Warranty. Unless required by applicable law or
|
|
145
|
+
agreed to in writing, Licensor provides the Work (and each
|
|
146
|
+
Contributor provides its Contributions) on an "AS IS" BASIS,
|
|
147
|
+
WITHOUT WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS OF ANY KIND, either express or
|
|
148
|
+
implied, including, without limitation, any warranties or conditions
|
|
149
|
+
of TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, MERCHANTABILITY, or FITNESS FOR A
|
|
150
|
+
PARTICULAR PURPOSE. You are solely responsible for determining the
|
|
151
|
+
appropriateness of using or redistributing the Work and assume any
|
|
152
|
+
risks associated with Your exercise of permissions under this License.
|
|
153
|
+
|
|
154
|
+
8. Limitation of Liability. In no event and under no legal theory,
|
|
155
|
+
whether in tort (including negligence), contract, or otherwise,
|
|
156
|
+
unless required by applicable law (such as deliberate and grossly
|
|
157
|
+
negligent acts) or agreed to in writing, shall any Contributor be
|
|
158
|
+
liable to You for damages, including any direct, indirect, special,
|
|
159
|
+
incidental, or consequential damages of any character arising as a
|
|
160
|
+
result of this License or out of the use or inability to use the
|
|
161
|
+
Work (including but not limited to damages for loss of goodwill,
|
|
162
|
+
work stoppage, computer failure or malfunction, or any and all
|
|
163
|
+
other commercial damages or losses), even if such Contributor
|
|
164
|
+
has been advised of the possibility of such damages.
|
|
165
|
+
|
|
166
|
+
9. Accepting Warranty or Additional Liability. While redistributing
|
|
167
|
+
the Work or Derivative Works thereof, You may choose to offer,
|
|
168
|
+
and charge a fee for, acceptance of support, warranty, indemnity,
|
|
169
|
+
or other liability obligations and/or rights consistent with this
|
|
170
|
+
License. However, in accepting such obligations, You may act only
|
|
171
|
+
on Your own behalf and on Your sole responsibility, not on behalf
|
|
172
|
+
of any other Contributor, and only if You agree to indemnify,
|
|
173
|
+
defend, and hold each Contributor harmless for any liability
|
|
174
|
+
incurred by, or claims asserted against, such Contributor by reason
|
|
175
|
+
of your accepting any such warranty or additional liability.

the brackets!) The text should be enclosed in the appropriate
|
|
185

|
|
186
|
+

> **Reach 50+ messengers with one Docker container via [beeperbox](https://github.com/hamr0/beeperbox)** — a headless Beeper Desktop that exposes WhatsApp, iMessage, Signal, Telegram, Slack, Discord, RCS, SMS and more as a single MCP server. Wire it through bareagent's MCP bridge; bareguard policies the invocations like any other tool (per-chat allowlists, ask patterns on destructive sends, all the usual layered defense).
