Both of us are definitely biased to think our own approach is better :)

But without owning the binary, we couldn't shipped today's feature -- Agent with access to your filesystem and being able to run shell commands like Claude Cowork.

Thanks! We'll look into publishing a blog soon!

Chrome Extension can also access local files and can also execute LLM generated code in sandboxes
