Questions

1. Following the "create" page: does browsers.create() return session_id, cdp_ws_url, live view url, and does deleteByID() clean up?
2. Speed: Kernel vs local Chrome for (a) start-up, (b) page load, (c) many small commands.
3. Control: can we drive it by CDP (Playwright from here) and by playwright.execute (code runs inside the VM)?
4. Bonus: can we record a session (replays.start/stop), get an MP4 and a view URL, and open it afterwards?

Examples (Gherkin in outputs/kernel.feature)

Each one is checked by outputs/run.mjs against the real Kernel API. No mocks.
