It's extremely handy too! If you try to use web automation tools like selenium or playwright on a website that blocks them, starting chrome browser with the debug port is a great way to get past Cloudflare's "human detector" before kicking off your automation. It's still a pain in the ass but at least it works and it's only once per session
Note that while --remote-debugging-port itself cannot be discovered by cloudflare once you attach a client to it that can be detected as Chrome itself changes it's runtime to accomodate the connection even if you don't issue any automation commands. You need to patch the entire browser to avoid these detection methods and that's why there are so many web scraping/automation SAAS out there with their own browser versions as that's the only way to automate the web these days. You can't just connect to a consumer browser and automate undetected.
True, it fails to get past the Cloudflare check if my playwright script is connected to the browser. But since these checks only happen on first visit to the site I'm ok with that.
Isn't this what SeleniumBase does?
