jssblck Reddit (signed-in Chrome)
Drive the shared computer's Chrome profile where the user is already signed in. Use page-level browser tools only (browserUse on Grok Bot).
Confirm the account menu shows a signed-in user before you do anything else. If Chrome is logged out, stop and have them sign in on that Chrome. Do not invent a workaround. Act as whatever account is signed in. Do not switch accounts.
