Browser Login

Browser login + X/Twitter posting

When a site requires login, sign in manually in the host browser profile (the remoteclaw browser).

Do not give the model your credentials. Automated logins often trigger anti‑bot defenses and can lock the account.

Back to the main browser docs: Browser.

Which Chrome profile is used?

RemoteClaw controls a dedicated Chrome profile (named remoteclaw, orange‑tinted UI). This is separate from your daily browser profile.

Two easy ways to access it:

  1. Ask the agent to open the browser and then log in yourself.
  2. Open it via CLI:
Terminal window
remoteclaw browser start
remoteclaw browser open https://x.com

If you have multiple profiles, pass --browser-profile <name> (the default is remoteclaw).

  • Read/search/threads: use the host browser (manual login).
  • Post updates: use the host browser (manual login).

Sandboxing + host browser access

Sandboxed browser sessions are more likely to trigger bot detection. For X/Twitter (and other strict sites), prefer the host browser.

If the agent is sandboxed, the browser tool defaults to the sandbox. To allow host control:

{
agents: {
defaults: {
sandbox: {
mode: "non-main",
browser: {
allowHostControl: true,
},
},
},
},
}

Then target the host browser:

Terminal window
remoteclaw browser open https://x.com --browser-profile remoteclaw --target host

Or disable sandboxing for the agent that posts updates.
