Problem

bb-browser uses a standalone headless browser without access to the user logged-in Chrome session. When navigating to pages like GitHub Issues new page, it redirects to the login page instead.

Expected Behavior

When the user is already logged into GitHub in their Chrome browser, bb-browser should be able to access authenticated pages.

Suggested Fix

Integrate with AutoCLI (Chrome DevTools Protocol) to reuse the Chrome login state, similar to how the autocli skill works.
