Python: add async counterpart to launch_context(). Forwards all kwargs to
browser.new_context() — enables storage_state, permissions, extra_http_headers,
etc. without needing a persistent profile folder.
JS: launchContext() and launchPersistentContext() silently dropped unknown
options. New contextOptions field in LaunchContextOptions is spread into
newContext() to forward arbitrary Playwright context options (e.g.
storageState, permissions, geolocation).
- Remove locale and timezone_id from Playwright context kwargs (CDP)
- Pass timezone via --fingerprint-timezone binary flag (process-wide)
- Pass locale via --lang + --fingerprint-locale binary flags
- Accept both timezone and timezone_id param names silently (no deprecation)
- Update all wrapper tests to verify binary args, not CDP context params
- Add PLATFORM_CHROMIUM_VERSIONS map (Linux=v145, macOS=v142)
- Add get_chromium_version()/getChromiumVersion() for platform-specific version
- Make auto-update check release assets before offering updates
- Scope version markers per-platform (latest_version_linux-x64)
- Support 5th version segment for hotfix builds (e.g. 145.0.7632.109.2)
- Derive AVAILABLE_PLATFORMS from version map
Adds js/ package mirroring the Python wrapper architecture:
- Dual API: import from 'cloakbrowser' (Playwright) or 'cloakbrowser/puppeteer'
- TypeScript with full type definitions
- Same binary download/cache logic, same stealth args, same env vars
- Optional peer deps: users install only the runtime they need
- Full 6-site stealth test suite (sannysoft, incolumitas, BrowserScan, deviceandbrowserinfo, FingerprintJS, reCAPTCHA v3)
- Published to npm as cloakbrowser@0.1.2
