Chrome over CDP and Firefox over WebDriver BiDi, with tools a backend can't run absent from tools/list rather than throwing mid-task. 45 tools including built-in network mocking, a cookie group, tab leases with human-activity detection, real HTML5 drag-and-drop, raw mouse/scroll dispatch, downloads, permission grants, and tab-to-video screen recording so several agents can drive one browser without stealing each other's tabs or a human's.

+ * Chrome-only: resolving a "worker:<substring>" selector, including WAKING an
+ * idle-evicted MV3 service worker so there is something to resolve.
+ *
+ * EVERY PROTOCOL CHOICE BELOW WAS MEASURED against Chrome 151.0.7922.109 for
+ * 1.9.0, because the obvious ones are wrong:
+ *
+ *  1. `ServiceWorker.enable` and `ServiceWorker.startWorker` DO NOT EXIST on the
+ *     browser endpoint — both answer `-32601 wasn't found` there. The domain is
+ *     reachable only over a session attached to a PAGE target. Any page works;
+ *     a plain `about:blank` tab hosted the wake in the probe, so no page on the
+ *     extension's own origin is needed. That is why this opens a browser
+ *     connection and then attaches a flattened session to some page, rather
+ *     than talking to the browser endpoint directly.
+ *
+ *  2. A STOPPED worker is not a target. It is absent from `/json/list` and from
+ *     `Target.getTargets` under every filter tried (including an explicit
+ *     all-types filter, and after `Target.setDiscoverTargets`). The ONLY place a
+ *     stopped worker is visible is the registration inventory that
+ *     `ServiceWorker.enable` pushes as `workerRegistrationUpdated` /
+ *     `workerVersionUpdated`. So matching a substring against a sleeping worker
+ *     means matching against those events, not against a target list.
+ *
+ *  3. `ServiceWorker.startWorker` RETURNS EMPTY SUCCESS FOR A SCOPE THAT DOES
+ *     NOT EXIST — a completely invented `chrome-extension://aaaa.../` scope
+ *     answers `{}` exactly like a real one. Its result is therefore worthless as
+ *     evidence, and nothing here reports a wake on the strength of it: the
+ *     caller re-reads the target list and only a worker that actually shows up
+ *     counts. This is the one dishonesty the feature could most easily ship.
+ *
+ * WHY THE CONNECTION IS ALWAYS CLOSED IN A `finally`. Two reasons, and the
+ * second is not obvious: a leaked socket keeps the process alive (the standing
+ * harness rule), AND an attached CDP session KEEPS A SERVICE WORKER FROM BEING
+ * EVICTED. A connection left open here would suppress the very eviction this
+ * module exists to recover from, so the leak would hide itself.
