POST /chrome/evaluate passes the request body\u0027s `script` field directly to Playwright\u0027s page.evaluate, allowing arbitrary JavaScript execution inside the controlled Chrome instance. POST /keyboard/type, /keyboard/key, and /mouse/* forward HTTP-supplied text, key names, and coordinates into xdotool or w-mousekey/AHK, driving system-wide keyboard and mouse input on the host desktop. Because the listener binds to all interfaces with no credential check, any party reachable on the network \u2014 LAN, adjacent VLAN, or an internet-routable interface \u2014 can execute JavaScript in the browser session and drive arbitrary keystrokes and clicks on the operator\u0027s machine, which can be used to open a terminal, type shell commands, and achieve full host RCE. The dist bundle also contains child_process usage tied to ping and POST primitives consistent with this HTTP dispatch surface.\n",
