"""Spawn a system Chrome/Edge with a DevTools debugging port for CDP control. Why this exists: driving a system browser via Playwright's ``chromium.launch(channel="chrome")`` makes the app *take over* another app's process, which on macOS triggers a TCC "Automation" permission prompt and a multi-second (sometimes 100s+) stall on first use. Launching Chrome ourselves with ``--remote-debugging-port`` and attaching via ``connect_over_cdp`` avoids that entirely — from the OS's view it's just a process listening on a local port — and matches how Codex / Claude Code drive the user's real browser. The launched process uses an isolated ``--user-data-dir`` so it never fights the user's day-to-day browser profile, while still persisting login state across sessions inside that dir.
