Hronaut is a visible desktop browser that preserves tabs, sign-ins, cookies, and other browser state between coding-agent sessions.

Landing page captured for the 2026-08-25 issue.

Field notes

Hronaut keeps a local desktop browser profile running across coding-agent sessions and connects clients through a loopback Streamable HTTP MCP endpoint. The page describes named tab groups for isolating parallel tasks and preserves browser materials including cookies, local storage, IndexedDB, bookmarks, and window state. Its workflow leaves sensitive steps such as authentication, consent, payment, and CAPTCHA with a person before the agent resumes work.
