Overview / Description
ChromiumFish is an AI developer tool: a fingerprint-hardened Chromium fork that ships with a drop-in Playwright harness for Python and Node. It is built for developers running browser automation, scraping, and AI agent workflows that need a real browser less likely to be flagged by anti-bot fingerprinting. Because it is distributed as a PyPI package, you install it into an existing Python project and point your Playwright code at it as a near drop-in replacement, with Node support alongside. The pitch is AI-native automation: a hardened Chromium build that fits into the standard Playwright workflow rather than forcing a new API. ChromiumFish is aimed at engineers building data-collection pipelines, automated testing, and agentic browsing where stock headless Chromium gets detected or blocked. As a fingerprint-hardened browser automation tool it sits alongside other anti-detection and stealth-browser projects rather than general-purpose Playwright or Puppeteer on their own.
