Stealth Chromium with source-level patches is a practical tool for web automation and anti-detection, directly useful for developers.
Summary
CloakBrowser patches Chromium at the C++ source level (49 patches) to evade bot detection, achieving 0.9 reCAPTCHA v3 scores and passing Cloudflare Turnstile. It provides drop-in Playwright/Puppeteer API replacements for Python and JS that auto-download the stealth binary, with flags like `humanize=True` for behavioral camouflage. The open-source project, built on Chromium 146, also includes a self-hosted browser profile manager and native SOCKS5 proxy support.
