MIT-licensed browser where agents work in isolated "Spaces" in parallel with your own tabs, with an opt-in Chrome data migration letting agents inherit your existing cookies, logins and extensions rather than re-authenticating. The architectural bet: expose browser capabilities as JavaScript functions the agent calls directly, so multi-step tasks compose into one execution instead of iterative command/response round-trips.
