#13Name derived from Netscape (Firefox's great-grandfather), icon is a red fox, but based on Chrome? Was this originally designed as a Firefox fork or what happened there

There is a big red button to always stop the agent.

#18Are we still tossing around the 10x productivity boost? Please make this stop. I see first commit on April 28 so by 10x productivity its like you've been working on this for almost 2.5 years, and there is still a waiting list on the website. Appreciate the agplv3 licence, kudos on that.
Thanks for the feedback.
I get the general sentiment. But cursor for sure has improved productivity by a huge multiplicative factor, especially for simpler stuff (like building chrome extension).

#19Before I dive into the source code... how do you pass the page content, and the locations of interactive components to the LLM? And how do you dispatch events to interact with the page? I just want to verify if it's ARIA tree like the others, or it's something else.
Today, we connect to chrome using CDP and use Puppeteer to send clicks and other operations. Also, using browser use DOM tree highlighting, which works great.
To get the page content we parse accessibility tree.

#20I'll get voted down, but I hate that cute AI fox, and hope I never see it again.
