Fortress

One browser engine to rule them all

Stealth Chromium engine

Fortress is a stealth Chromium engine that stops your scrapers and browser agents from getting blocked, with one line of code change. Bot detectors flag automation by reading the browser fingerprint; Fortress corrects that fingerprint inside Chromium's C++, so the browser presents as an ordinary Chrome install. Scrapers finish their runs, agents reach the pages they were sent to, and CreepJS, Sannysoft, BrowserScan, and live Cloudflare Turnstile all read it as human. Point your existing Playwright or Puppeteer at Fortress over CDP, and nothing else in your code changes.

_{Blink · V8 · BoringSSL patched in-tree · ANGLE / D3D11-backed WebGL · JA3/JA4-coherent TLS · monthly upstream rebase · reproducible, gauntlet-gated releases}

_{Unedited capture of the Fortress binary in a real window: it clears a live Cloudflare challenge, turns bot.sannysoft.com all green, then reads BrowserScan “Normal”. Reproduce with tools/gauntlet.py.}

pip install -U tilion-fortress       # or:  docker run --rm -p 9222:9222 tilion/fortress:latest

from tilion_fortress import Fortress
from playwright.sync_api import sync_playwright

with Fortress() as f:                                   # launches the stealth engine on a CDP endpoint
    with sync_playwright() as p:
        browser = p.chromium.connect_over_cdp(f.cdp_url)
        page = browser.new_page()
        page.goto("https://bot.sannysoft.com")
        page.screenshot(path="all-green.png")

import { Fortress } from "tilion-fortress";
import { chromium } from "playwright";

const f = await Fortress.launch();                      // stealth engine on a CDP endpoint
const browser = await chromium.connectOverCDP(f.cdpUrl);
const page = await browser.newPage();
await page.goto("https://browserscan.net");
await browser.close();
await f.close();

The 12-second tour

_{One loop, all real captures: passes CreepJS / Sannysoft / BrowserScan / rebrowser → scrapes structured data over CDP → clears Akamai on aa.com · lowes · macys · kohls (same residential IP).}

Real scraping, fully headless

_{Unedited captures of the Fortress engine driven over CDP. No stealth plugins, no JS patches: the fingerprint is corrected in the binary. Reproduce any of these with examples/scrape_demos.py.}

_{Structured extraction: records build into typed JSON as each item is read.}
