I'm curious why use a hosted browser instead of just spinning one up locally and since you already have he electron app. Why not just use a different Chrome profile for isolation and interact with that?

Thanks for the question! We only use the hosted browser for running the automations remotely (via API). In the IDE, we use a local chrome browser, where we spin up an anonymous profile for isolation.
