PinchTab Stealth Score

Drive PinchTab through a list of public bot-detection sites under each browser (chrome, cloak, or both), and collect the metrics that matter most for analyst comparison. up.sh reuses cached images, so pass REBUILD=1 when you need to benchmark the current working tree.

The shape is the same as /pinchtab-opt: one container per run, one blind agent that reads English playbooks and drives PinchTab through ./scripts/pt, records per-site metrics, and the orchestrator summarizes.

Argument Parsing

• /pinchtab-stealth-score → default to both
• /pinchtab-stealth-score chrome → chrome only
• /pinchtab-stealth-score cloak → cloak only
• /pinchtab-stealth-score both → run both sequentially

Anything else → print this section and abort.

Site Catalogue

The agent processes the sites listed in tests/stealth-score/sites/index.md (currently 15). The list is dynamic — to add or remove sites you only edit that index and the matching <id>.md playbook. The skill itself doesn't hard- code site names.

Current sites (15) — sannysoft, rebrowser, deviceandbrowserinfo, iphey, whoer, browserscan, pixelscan, fingerprint-scan, incolumitas, fvision, amiunique, browserleaks (multi-page: canvas+webgl+fonts+tls), creepjs, coveryourtracks, fingerprint-demo.

Expected duration: ~12-15 min per browser once images are cached, so a both run takes ~25-30 min plus first-time image build (~10 min for cloak).

Path Resolution

PROJECT_ROOT=$(git rev-parse --show-toplevel)
SCORE_DIR="$PROJECT_ROOT/tests/stealth-score"
RESULTS_DIR="$SCORE_DIR/results"
TIMESTAMP=$(date -u +%Y%m%dT%H%M%SZ)
mkdir -p "$RESULTS_DIR"

Prerequisites

Docker must be running.

docker info >/dev/null 2>&1 || { echo "Docker not running"; exit 1; }

If port 9867 on the host is already taken (e.g. a native PinchTab server), free it first — both the chrome and cloak containers bind 9867:

pinchtab daemon stop 2>&1 || true
sleep 2
pkill -9 -f "pinchtab " 2>/dev/null || true

Execution

For each requested browser, run the same loop:

1. Bring up the container

"$SCORE_DIR/up.sh" "$PROVIDER"

up.sh builds the appropriate image if absent (pinchtab-local:test + pinchtab-chrome-smoke:test, or pinchtab-cloakbrowser:test), writes a browser config with open allowedDomains, and starts a container named stealth-score-pinchtab on host port 9867. It exits non-zero if the container fails to become healthy.

To force a rebuild: REBUILD=1 "$SCORE_DIR/up.sh" "$PROVIDER".

2. Seed the report JSON

REPORT_FILE="$RESULTS_DIR/${PROVIDER}_${TIMESTAMP}.json"
cat > "$REPORT_FILE" <<JSON
{
  "provider": "${PROVIDER}",
  "timestamp": "${TIMESTAMP}",
  "started_at": "$(date -u +%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%SZ)",
  "completed_at": null,
  "sites_processed": 0,
  "sites": []
}
JSON

3. Spawn the agent

Use the Agent tool. Prompt template — replace {PROVIDER}, {REPORT_FILE}, {PROJECT_ROOT}:

You are running a PinchTab stealth-score sweep against a Docker container.

PROVIDER: {PROVIDER}
REPORT_FILE: {REPORT_FILE}
PROJECT_ROOT: {PROJECT_ROOT}

Read these files first (do NOT read anything under tests/stealth-score/results/):
1. {PROJECT_ROOT}/tests/stealth-score/subagent-context.md — environment, wrapper, recording format.
2. {PROJECT_ROOT}/tests/stealth-score/sites/index.md — list of sites to process and in what order.
3. {PROJECT_ROOT}/skills/pinchtab/SKILL.md — PinchTab command reference.

The site list currently has ~15 entries. Work through them in the order index.md gives. For each site:
- Read its playbook (sites/<id>.md). It describes what to navigate to, what to wait for, any clicks needed, and which metrics to capture.
- Drive PinchTab through the {PROJECT_ROOT}/tests/tools/scripts/pt wrapper. Before any pt call: cd {PROJECT_ROOT}/tests/tools and export PINCHTAB_CONTAINER=stealth-score-pinchtab and PINCHTAB_TOKEN=stealth-score-token.
- Extract the listed metrics from what you actually observe on the page. Capture as many of the listed metrics as you can find — partial captures are fine; record "unavailable" plus a brief reason when a metric isn't present.
- Append a JSON record to REPORT_FILE per the recording format in subagent-context.md.

Time-box each site to ~2 minutes. If a site is slow, hangs, or shows a Cloudflare challenge, record what you have, set notes accordingly, and move on.

Finalize the report (set completed_at + sites_processed) and print STEALTH_SCORE_RUN_COMPLETE on stdout as your final line.

The container is already running and healthy. Do NOT touch Docker, do NOT switch browsers, do NOT run `pinchtab server` or `daemon` — the wrapper talks to the container directly.

4. Tear down

"$SCORE_DIR/down.sh"

When both browsers are requested, run sequentially: up → agent → down for chrome, then up → agent → down for cloak. They share port 9867.

Summarize

After all per-browser JSON reports exist, build the side-by-side comparison using the Go runner:

"$PROJECT_ROOT/tests/tools/scripts/runner" stealth compare \
  "$RESULTS_DIR"/*_${TIMESTAMP}.json

tests/tools/scripts/runner is a tracked self-building shim: on first use it compiles the Go runner into the gitignored tests/tools/scripts/.runner.bin and rebuilds it automatically after source changes — no manual go build needed (and never build over the shim path itself; that would overwrite the checked-in script with a binary).

The summarizer:

1. Prints a markdown comparison: headline counts, a divergent-metrics table (only rows where chrome and cloak disagree on real values), and per-site tables for every metric captured by either browser. Pipe directly to the user.
2. Appends one JSON line to tests/stealth-score/history.jsonl per comparison run (run id, providers, sites count, divergence count, list of divergent metrics). The file is kept in the repo so multi-session history survives.
3. Regenerates tests/stealth-score/history.md — last-20-runs table view.

Present the markdown table to the user as-is. Mention the history files when reporting so the user knows where to look for trends.

Adding or Removing Sites

1. Create tests/stealth-score/sites/<id>.md from the existing playbooks. Keep the structure: URL → readiness signal → steps → metrics table → gotchas.
2. Add the new id to tests/stealth-score/sites/index.md in the order you want it processed.

That's it. No code change. The agent reads the index fresh every run.

Notes

• This is advisory, not a CI gate. A non-zero detection score on cloak that matches chrome's baseline is a generic Chromium signal, not a CloakBrowser regression.
• Heavy SPA detection pages (creepjs, browserscan) take 20-40 s to settle. The playbooks use wait --text for the actual readiness signal so the agent doesn't read mid-load placeholders. If a page is still loading after the playbook's recommended waits, the agent should record "unavailable" for affected metrics and explain in notes — don't paper over it with guesses.
• The Docker container exposes PinchTab on 9867. The ./scripts/pt wrapper reads PINCHTAB_CONTAINER env to know which container to exec into.
