The Chromeft Node uses official Chrome for Testing builds bundled with Patchright. Unlike the Cloakbrowser Node which ships a stealth-patched browser, this variant uses unmodified Chrome for Testing — making it a good choice for internal scraping, testing, or sites that don’t employ bot detection.

Configuration

All environment variables, volume mounts, clustering, and external service setup work identically to the Cloakbrowser Node. Refer to that page for the full reference. The only differences:
  • Built-in node tags include chromeft instead of cloakbrowser
  • The browser binary comes from Patchright (pinned to the Patchright version in package.json)
