Camofox-browser is a self-hosted Node.js server wrapping Camoufox
(Firefox fork with C++ fingerprint spoofing). When CAMOFOX_URL is set,
all 11 browser tools route through the Camofox REST API instead of
the agent-browser CLI.
Maps 1:1 to the existing browser tool interface:
- Navigate, snapshot, click, type, scroll, back, press, close
- Get images, vision (screenshot + LLM analysis)
- Console (returns empty with note — camofox limitation)
Setup: npm start in camofox-browser dir, or docker run -p 9377:9377
Then: CAMOFOX_URL=http://localhost:9377 in ~/.hermes/.env
Advantages over Browserbase (cloud):
- Free (no per-session API costs)
- Local (zero network latency for browser ops)
- Anti-detection at C++ level (bypasses Cloudflare/Google bot detection)
- Works offline, Docker-ready
