CloakBrowser Fallback

Leading words: stealth browser, fallback, humanize, bot detection, Turnstile, headless failover, real Chromium binary.

Stealth Chromium for navigating sites that block ordinary automation. Drop-in Playwright API, but the browser is a custom-compiled Chromium binary, so detectors score it as a real human browser.

Already installed on this machine. Both languages share the same stealth binary at ~/.cloakbrowser/:

• Python (global): pip package cloakbrowser.
• JS (self-contained in this skill's scripts/): npm cloakbrowser + playwright-core.

Prefer Python by default. Use JS when the target codebase/repo is JS/TS or the user asks for it.
