When to pick Veilbrowser
Stealth browser automation over raw CDP, driving a real unmodified Chrome with no Playwright or Puppeteer in the stack. Returns numbered element refs from the accessibility tree so a model clicks ref 3 instead of guessing a CSS selector, and can attach to an already-running Chrome to reuse logged-in sessions.
When to pick Puppeteer
Browser automation and web scraping.
