This project is called CloakBrowser. The README describes it as a modified version of the Chromium browser, the open-source engine behind Google Chrome, that has been changed at the C++ source code level to hide the signals that anti-bot systems use to spot automated browsers. The author claims it is a real Chromium binary rather than a configuration patch or a JavaScript trick. The pitch in the README is that the browser passes bot detection tests on sites like Cloudflare Turnstile, FingerprintJS, and BrowserScan, and that it scores 0.9 on Google's reCAPTCHA v3, which the README labels human-level. The author lists 49 source-level patches covering canvas, WebGL, audio, fonts, GPU, screen, WebRTC, network timing, automation signals, and CDP input behaviour. There is also a humanize=True flag that produces mouse curves, keyboard timing, and scroll patterns intended to look like a real person. The README presents CloakBrowser as a drop-in replacement for the Playwright and Puppeteer libraries, which are widely used tools for controlling a browser from code. The author says the same scripts work without changes once the import line is swapped, in either Python or JavaScript. Installation is one line: pip install cloakbrowser or npm install cloakbrowser, after which the binary downloads itself. The README also says the project is free and open source, with no subscriptions or usage limits, and that the binary checks for updates in the background so it stays on the latest stealth build. The README is short and ends mid-section in a code block that is not filled in.
