NexusBrowser
<!-- mcp-name: io.github.pironjulien/nexus-browser -->
Your real Chrome, driven by AI agents in background tabs. NexusBrowser lets Antigravity, Claude and Codex use the user's own Chrome (their sessions, their extensions) through one shared local bridge and one MCP server, nexus-browser. Each agent works in its own background tabs, grouped under its name, with real (trusted) mouse and keyboard events sent through the Chrome DevTools Protocol, while the user keeps working in their own tabs.

Part of the Nexus family: NexusWindows (Claude · Codex · Antigravity), NexusBrowser (repo), NexusAndroid (repo). Project page: julienpiron.fr/nexusbrowser.

Browser automation usually means a separate headless browser (no sessions, no extensions) or screen-level computer use that moves the user's cursor and brings the window to the front. NexusBrowser works inside the browser the user already uses, without activating the agent's tab or window, and keeps the guard rails in the extension and the bridge rather than in the agent: tab ownership, an allowlist of DevTools commands, masked secrets, an emergency stop.
user's browsing (Antigravity docs). NexusBrowser gives it the user's real Chrome.

NexusBrowser complements it where a bridge with the DevTools protocol helps: JavaScript dialogs (browserhandledialog), detailed network capture with response bodies, elements inside cross-origin iframes, content and Google Docs/Sheets/Slides exports, and downloads.
- Claude and Codex already have their own Chrome extension (Claude in Chrome, the Codex Chrome extension).
Until 2.4.0 it was published here as "Antigravity Browser Bridge", for Antigravity only. Since 2.6.0 it is a neutral bridge shared by several agents.
