# Electron App Automation Automate any Electron desktop app using agent-browser. Electron apps are built on Chromium and expose a Chrome DevTools Protocol (CDP) port that agent-browser can connect to, enabling the same snapshot-interact workflow used for web pages. ## Core Workflow 1. **Launch** the Electron app with remote debugging enabled 2. **Connect** agent-browser to the CDP port 3. **Snapshot** to discover interactive elements 4. **Interact** using element refs 5. **Re-snapshot** after navigation or state changes ```bash # Launch an Electron app with remote debugging open -a "Slack" --args --remote-debugging-port=9222 # Connect agent-browser to the app agent-browser connect 9222 # Standard workflow from here agent-browser snapshot -i agent-browser click @e5 agent-browser screenshot slack-desktop.png ``` ## Launching Electron Apps with CDP Every Electron app supports the `--remote-debugging-port` flag since it's built into Chromium. ### macOS ```bash # Slack open -a "Slack" --args --remote-debugging-port=9222 # VS Code open -a "Visual Studio Code" --args --remote-debugging-port=9223 # Discord open -a "Discord" --args --remote-debugging-port=9224 # Figma open -a "Figma" --args --remote-debugging-port=9225 # Notion open -a "Notion" --args --remote-debugging-port=9226 # Spotify open -a "Spotify" --args --remote-debugging-port=9227 ``` ### Linux ```bash slack --remote-debugging-port=9222 code --remote-debugging-port=9223 discord --remote-debugging-port=9224...
