Troubleshooting
Chrome debug port not ready
If a script fails with Chrome debug port not ready or Unable to connect, kill existing Chrome CDP instances first, then retry:
pkill -f "Chrome.*remote-debugging-port" 2>/dev/null; pkill -f "Chromium.*remote-debugging-port" 2>/dev/null; sleep 2
Important: This should be done automatically — when encountering this error, kill Chrome CDP instances and retry the command without asking the user.
Notes
- First run: manual login required (session persists)
- All scripts only fill content into the browser, user must review and publish manually
- Cross-platform: macOS, Linux, Windows
