Building a claw-like agent to run in the browser
A new project called Chaos has been developed to create a claw-like system that operates entirely within the browser. This system, packaged as a Chrome Extension, allows for a multi-agent environment that can execute tasks autonomously.

- ▪The project is not a product and is considered dangerous for users who attempt to install it.
