Overview

The Enconvo Browser Extension lets Enconvo control your real browser when a task needs your signed-in browser state. Use it for sites such as LinkedIn, Gmail, Salesforce, dashboards, or internal tools where your cookies and browser extensions matter. For public pages, local previews, or workflows that should not touch your personal browser profile, use isolated browser automation instead.

​
Set Up The Extension

1

Install the extension

Install the Enconvo browser extension in Chrome, Edge, Brave, Arc, Vivaldi, Opera, or Firefox.
2

Open your browser

Keep the browser running. The extension connects to Enconvo automatically over ws://localhost:11225.
3

Check the toolbar popup

Click the extension icon. The popup should show Connected Chrome, Connected Edge, Connected Firefox, or the current browser name.
4

Start a browser task

Ask Enconvo to read, click, type, take a screenshot, or manage tabs in the browser.
The extension popup shows:
  • Connection status: whether the current browser extension instance is connected to Enconvo.
  • Current browser: the browser this extension instance is connected as, such as Chrome, Edge, Brave, or Firefox.
  • Connected browsers: other browser extension instances currently connected to Enconvo.
  • Version: the installed browser extension version.
  • Learn more: a link back to this documentation page.
If the popup says disconnected, restart Enconvo and refresh the browser. If it still does not connect, disable and re-enable the extension.

​
Multiple Browsers

Enconvo can connect to more than one browser at the same time. Browser actions use this priority order when no browser is specified:
  1. The default browser selected in Computer Use settings.
  2. Your macOS system default browser.
  3. The most recently focused connected browser.
You can also target a browser explicitly in automation APIs: 
{
  "browser": "edge"
}
Common values include chrome, google_chrome, edge, brave_browser, arc, vivaldi, opera, and firefox.

​
Website Access And Safety

Browser pages can contain untrusted instructions. Review the site and the requested action before allowing Enconvo to continue on sensitive pages. The extension uses browser permissions to read page content, click, type, capture screenshots, inspect tabs, and access cookies when a browser task requires it. Treat authenticated pages, browser history, and internal tools as sensitive data.

​
Troubleshooting

  1. Make sure Enconvo is running.
  2. Restart the browser.
  3. Disable and re-enable the extension.
  4. Confirm nothing is blocking localhost:11225.
Open Computer Use settings and set the default browser, or pass a browser value such as edge, chrome, or firefox in the browser action.
Browser internal pages such as chrome:// cannot be controlled. Strict CSP pages, closed Shadow DOM, and browser permission prompts may also limit automation.
In the browser extension details page, enable file URL access if the task needs local file uploads or file-backed pages.
