agent-browser supports safer TLS proxies

agent-browser’s Linux Chromium workflow accepts a proxy CA certificate through CLI, environment, config, or MCP settings. It enables HTTPS interception without disabling normal hostname and certificate validity checks.

// ANALYSIS

This is a meaningful security upgrade for browser agents operating inside corporate networks, where broad certificate bypasses are an unacceptable shortcut.

  • Isolated NSS trust limits the trusted CA to the launched Chromium session
  • `--ca-cert` avoids the security risks of `--ignore-https-errors`
  • Retained trust across commands simplifies long-running agent workflows
  • Proxy CA support targets Zscaler, Netskope, mitmproxy, and similar TLS-intercepting environments
  • Linux-only support and incompatibility with CDP, profiles, and cloud providers remain notable constraints
