## Your browser, your login

|

|
|
64
|
+
No blank profile, no debugging port, no cloud browser. The extension runs in
|
|
65
|
+
your Chrome, so every site you are signed into is already open to the agent:
|
|
66
|
+
webmail, the hosting panel, a client's back office, a staging site behind
|
|
67
|
+
basic auth. Tabs the agent opens are marked as its own and closed when the
|
|
68
|
+
session ends; your tabs stay yours.
|
|
69
|
+
|
|
70
|
+
When a page asks for something only you can give, the agent does not guess and
|
|
71
|
+
never types credentials. `handoff` shows a banner in the page with what it
|
|
72
|
+
needs — "complete the login with your 2FA, then press Done", "click the button
|
|
73
|
+
you mean" — waits for you, and continues from where you left it, redirects
|
|
74
|
+
included. It can also ask a question in the banner and read your typed reply,
|
|
75
|
+
or let you pick one or more elements on the page.
