A browser and a screen your agent can use.
A whole machine with Chrome and a desktop. Drive it from your own Playwright, let a model click and type, and watch it work.
It goes only where you send it.
A browsing agent follows links. Its outbound rule is held on the server outside the machine, so nothing inside it, root included, can widen it.
Outbound rules→Watch it, or take the wheel.
Two links to the same desktop. One lets someone watch; the other lets them use it, for a login only a person should do, then hand it back.
