v1.4.0 — Downloads, JS Evaluate, Reliability

Camofox Browser v1.4.0

What's New

🖼️ Download & Image Capture

• File downloads: Camofox now captures files downloaded during browser sessions — PDFs, CSVs, images, and more. Your agent can access them programmatically after a download completes.
• Page image extraction: A new endpoint pulls all visible images from a page, useful for extracting product photos, charts, or screenshots from web apps. (Thanks @Microck!)

🧠 JavaScript Evaluation

• Run JavaScript on any page: The new camofox_evaluate tool lets agents execute JavaScript directly in a tab's page context — read page state, call web app APIs, or inject scripts. (Thanks @faith0811!)

⚡ Reliability Improvements

• Faster page interactions: Clicks, typing, and scrolling are more responsive. Stale element references (from dynamic pages like SPAs) are now auto-refreshed instead of failing.
• No more cold starts: The browser pre-warms on startup, so the first page load is just as fast as every other one.
• Better error recovery: Tabs that stop responding are automatically cleaned up. Dead browser sessions recover without restarting the server.
• Google Search is faster: Results pages load ~2x quicker with a new direct extraction method.

🔧 Under the Hood

• Converted the codebase to modern JavaScript modules (ESM). No changes needed on your end — the plugin API is the same.
• Version numbers in package.json and openclaw.plugin.json now stay in sync automatically.
