curl --request POST \

  --data '{ "url": "https://example.com" }'

Requires an installed browser-session extension and a configured Chromium executable. The browser uses its own HTTPS transport through a proxy limited to declared public hosts on port 443. It belongs to this user, lasts ten minutes, and is reused by subsequent extension browser calls. Starting another browser requires closing the existing one first.
