ToClaw

About

ToClaw is a browser automation extension that lets your local AI agent or automation script take full control of Chrome through a secure local WebSocket connection. No cloud. No remote servers. Everything runs on your own machine.

── HOW IT WORKS ──

ToClaw listens for commands on a local WebSocket server (ws://localhost). Your application sends JSON-RPC 2.0 requests; ToClaw executes them in Chrome and returns results in real time. Any programming language that supports WebSockets can drive the browser.
