Usage
How It Works
Wovly uses the Chrome DevTools Protocol (CDP) to control a browser instance:- Opens a Chrome window (you can watch it navigate)
- Takes actions (click, type, scroll)
- Captures screenshots for context
- Reports findings back to you
Credential Security
For websites requiring login:- Save credentials in the Credentials page first
- Wovly auto-fills using secure placeholders
- Actual passwords never appear in chat or logs
