a web page that is a browser that can load itself

We need a new cdp browser automation library that:
- is js
- does not auto attach but surgically limits its attach behaviour to minimum
- tries to be as stateless as possible

is there anything out there i am not aware of?

and im not talking about usability, eg. i can never remember the flags for curl or git, but the inverse is also not true.

the feeling of something a bit bolted together where things fall apart at unexpected places or where it mostly works but it does not feel like you should trust it. (eg. homebrew)

Don't have good examples and its quite fuzzy, sorry. Don't you know this feeling of using a solid, well build, responsive piece of software where the error modes make sense, the behaviour is usually how you would expect and you feel like its something you can rely and build on (eg. curl) vs.

im genuinely interested, im sure in the cases where its great i dont even see its ruby or python so i only see things like github, homebrew or dvc, dagter etc.

just as in great software. fun to use, failure modes that make sense, assumptions that make sense. feel like properly build. feel like not obvious they would have been much better if done another way. feel like the language and runtime are not a "thing" that is always in the way.
