Diagnoses and resolves Antigravity browser subagent and Chrome DevTools MCP connection failures in WSL2 environments (such as `Could not find DevToolsActivePort`, `ELOOP` symlink errors, or unreachable port 9222). Use whenever the native browser agent or chrome-devtools MCP fails to connect to Chrome on WSL.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Fix WSL Browser Agent & Chrome DevTools Connection

This skill diagnoses and resolves connection failures between Antigravity's Linux-based `browser` subagent (or `chrome-devtools` MCP server) running inside **Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL2)** and **Google Chrome** running on the Windows host.

## When to Use

Activate this skill whenever:
- The `browser` subagent or `chrome-devtools` MCP fails with:
  `Could not connect to Chrome (Could not find DevToolsActivePort for chrome at /home/<user>/.config/google-chrome/DevToolsActivePort)`
- A symlink at `~/.config/google-chrome/DevToolsActivePort` fails with:
  `Cause: ELOOP: too many symbolic links encountered`
- Port `9222` is unreachable from inside WSL2 even though Chrome is running on Windows.

---

## 1. Check If Fixed Upstream First (Future-Proofing)

Google may update Antigravity or `chrome-devtools-mcp` in a future release to natively detect and bridge to Windows Chrome from WSL2 (for example, by automatically scanning `/mnt/c/Users/*/AppData/Local/Google/Chrome/User Data/DevToolsActivePort` or establishing a built-in host channel).

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add derailed-dash/dazbo-agent-skills/fix-wsl-browser-agent@sha256:20428c53b871b900

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261107.1eb5dce, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
