Root cause: On Apple Silicon macOS, the Camoufox browser binary
inherits com.apple.quarantine from npm download. When camoufox-browser
launches it headlessly, Gatekeeper silently kills the process with
SIGKILL (exitCode=null, signal=SIGKILL) before it can run.
Fix:
1. remove_macos_quarantine() — runs 'xattr -dr com.apple.quarantine'
on the Camoufox cache directory after every fetch and on every
subsequent startup (in case cache was from a prior npx run)
2. check_known_errors() — detects 'sigkill' in daemon stderr and
shows the exact fix command to the user
3. Runs quarantine removal in TWO places:
- Immediately after camoufox-js fetch downloads the binary
- Always, even when binary already exists in cache
Root cause on macOS: camoufox-browser@0.1.0 downloads an alpha binary
(v150.0.2-alpha.26) from daijro/camoufox that has a broken macOS build
(missing libmozglue.dylib). Binary crashes with SIGABRT/SIGKILL.
Changes:
1. gyandoot-browser client now supports TWO transports:
- Transport::UnixSocket (existing — daemon IPC)
- Transport::Http (new — Docker REST API on port 9377)
2. init_browser() tries Docker HTTP first, falls back to npx daemon
3. HTTP transport maps browser actions to Docker REST endpoints
(/navigate, /tabs, /health, etc.) with correct userId params
4. check_known_errors() detects libmozglue.dylib + SIGKILL patterns
5. Browser cache check works for both macOS and Linux paths
6. Error messages correctly say 'Use Docker' on corrupted binary
7. Added reqwest dep to gyandoot-agent for Docker health check
Clean build: 0 errors
Root cause on macOS: 'camoufox-browser install' downloaded v150.0.2-alpha.26
instead of the stable browser binary. This alpha version is missing
libmozglue.dylib, causing dyld to crash immediately.
Changes:
1. detect_os() — returns Mac/Linux/Wsl/Windows enum for platform-aware logic
2. check_known_errors() — parses daemon stderr for known failures (missing
libmozglue.dylib on macOS, missing libgtk/libnss on Linux, code-signing)
3. platform_fix_instructions() — returns OS-specific recovery steps:
- macOS: rm -rf ~/Library/Caches/camoufox, reinstall, or Docker fallback
- WSL/Linux: correct apt-get install commands (with t64 package variants)
4. Browser cache detection now checks Camoufox.app on macOS, camoufox on Linux
5. All error messages use detect_os() — no more Linux apt-get on macOS
6. Corrupted download detected automatically, user told to clear cache + retry
Clean build: 0 errors, 0 warnings
- Add is_wsl() detection via /proc/version
- Add example_npx_path() returning platform-appropriate example path
- Replace all hardcoded macOS paths in error messages with dynamic ones
- Add WSL-specific hints: Node.js must be installed inside WSL, not Windows
- WSL hint includes nvm install instructions
- Clean build: 0 errors, 0 warnings
trigger_daemon_start now captures stdout/stderr and exit code instead
of silently redirecting to a log file. On failure it prints the actual
error, making it obvious what went wrong (npm install issue, node
version mismatch, etc.).
Adds [browser].node_path config option so camoufox-browser can use
an explicit npx path (essential for nvm/fnm/asdf users).
Resolution order (cross-platform):
1. config.browser.node_path — explicit user override
2. 'npx.cmd' on Windows, 'npx' on Linux/macOS — PATH lookup
Changes:
- BrowserSection config: added node_path: Option<String>
- AgentConfig: now carries browser section (was dropped in From<GyandootConfig>)
- browser_manager::init_browser(node_path): accepts optional path
- All call sites updated (run(), init_session(), subagents, tests)
- Error messages now hint at browser.node_path config
Full integration:
- install.sh now installs camoufox-browser via npm (preferred) or Docker
- install.sh creates systemd/launchd auto-start service on Linux/macOS
- New browser_manager.rs — health-check, auto-start, wait-for-ready
- AgentLoop::run() auto-inits Camoufox and registers web_search/web_browse
- System prompt tells LLM to use web_search/web_browse as PRIMARY tools
- Graceful fallback: if Camoufox unavailable, logs warning, uses bash tools
- ToolExecutor is now Arc<Mutex<>> for runtime tool registration
GyanDoot v2 now: install → Camoufox auto-starts → web tools available →
"search NSE India" uses Camoufox with anti-detection 🎯
