⚠Review·Scanned 2/18/2026

This skill provides C++-level stealth browser automation (Camoufox) and TLS-spoofed API scraping for evading anti-bot systems. It includes instructions to run shell commands (e.g. distrobox-enter, bash scripts/setup.sh), perform network requests to sites like https://api.example.com and https://www.airbnb.com, and read/save session cookies under ~/.stealth-browser/profiles/<name>/.

Camoufox Stealth Browser 🦊

C++ level anti-bot evasion — not JavaScript band-aids.

Why Camoufox > Chrome-Based Tools

Approach	Patches At	Detectable?
Camoufox ✅	C++ (compiled into browser)	No — fingerprints are genuinely different
undetected-chromedriver	JS runtime	Yes — timing analysis reveals patches
puppeteer-stealth	JS injection	Yes — applied after page load
playwright-stealth	JS injection	Yes — same limitations

Most "stealth" tools patch Chrome with JavaScript after the browser starts. Anti-bot systems detect this via timing analysis and consistency checks.

Camoufox is different. It's a Firefox fork with stealth patches compiled into the C++ source code. WebGL, Canvas, and AudioContext fingerprints are genuinely spoofed — not masked by JS overrides.

Key Features

🦊 C++ Level Stealth — Fingerprints baked into the browser binary
📦 Container Isolation — Runs in distrobox, keeps host clean
⚡ Dual-Tool Design — Camoufox for browsers, curl_cffi for fast API-only scraping
🔥 Firefox-Based — Less fingerprinted than Chrome (bots love Chrome)

Quick Start

# Setup (first time)
distrobox-enter pybox -- python3.14 -m pip install camoufox curl_cffi

# Fetch a Cloudflare-protected page
distrobox-enter pybox -- python3.14 scripts/camoufox-fetch.py \
  "https://yelp.com/biz/example" --headless

# API scraping (no browser needed)
distrobox-enter pybox -- python3.14 scripts/curl-api.py \
  "https://api.example.com" --impersonate chrome120

Requirements

distrobox with a pybox container
Residential proxy for Airbnb/Yelp (datacenter IPs = instant block)

Tools

Tool	Use Case	Speed
Camoufox	Full browser automation, JS-heavy sites	~3-5s/page
curl_cffi	API endpoints, no JS needed	~100ms/request
