Electron App Automation

Automate any Electron desktop app using chrome-use. Electron apps are built on Chromium and expose a Chrome DevTools Protocol (CDP) port that chrome-use 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 chrome-use to the CDP port
3. Snapshot to discover interactive elements
4. Interact using element refs
5. Re-snapshot after navigation or state changes

# Launch an Electron app with remote debugging
open -a "Slack" --args --remote-debugging-port=9222

# Connect chrome-use to the app
chrome-use connect 9222
