Hacking Google Chrome Source Code: Make Puppeteer work over Redis PubSub (deadf00d.com)
whatevermom2 1 days ago [-]
What about having an intermediate server running on the same box as the browser, that connects to CDP using a pipe, and forwards messages to the Redis server, instead of modifying Chrome s source ? It's painful to maintain Chrome patches.

Really cool project in any case, seems like working at Pikkit must've been a lot of fun ! Thanks OP for sharing.

Not the OP but I’ve been thinking to write exactly this as part of making my personal browser available over MCP.

Chromium*

I know it's semantics, but I think it's important in this case to mention that the entire article is about the open-source Chromium browser, not the proprietary Google Chrome one.

Thank you! I thought people might know it more as Google Chrome. Hence why I changed it on the HN title. But the original blog title specifically mention Chromium.
