type-two fc3e668504 feat: Prompt Mode / DL Mode split in the popup
- DL Mode button: one click harvests everything on screen (click ⋮ -> hover
  Download -> click 1K, verified per tile), click again to stop after current
  tile; no queue involved, no server reporting for manual runs
- Prompt Mode = the existing queue runner, relabelled
- harvestActive synced to storage so the popup button reflects state

Flow Auto-Pilot

A Brave extension + local queue that drains a prompt bank through Google Labs Flow (Nano Banana 2 images, Veo videos) on the webui-only credits you can't reach via API. The extension types prompts into the Flow agent box with trusted CDP input (Flow ignores synthetic DOM events), waits for the media grid to grow, harvests the new asset URLs, and downloads them with the page's session cookies.

Not headless: Brave must be running and logged into the Flow account. But once the tab is open with Auto-start ticked, it runs unattended.

Parts

File Role
manifest.json, background.js, content.js, popup.* the Brave MV3 extension
local_server_example.py queue server on :8017queue.jsonl in, results.jsonl out
queue.jsonl the prompt bank (one task per line)
flowclient.py enqueue() / wait_for() so a game project can request assets
launch.sh start server + keep Mac awake + open/focus one Flow tab
install.sh + games.monsterrobot.flowrinse.plist self-healing launchd agent

Run it by hand

./launch.sh https://labs.google/fx/tools/flow/project/<PROJECT_ID>

Server comes up (under caffeinate), Brave focuses the Flow tab, and with Auto-start ticked the rinse begins. Files land in ~/Downloads/flowrinse/<category>/.

Run it unattended (launchd)

./install.sh

Fires launch.sh at login and every 10 min. Because launch.sh is idempotent (port check + tab reuse), the repeat runs are no-ops that self-heal a dead server or a closed tab.

macOS TCC gotcha (same as the vault-backup job): launchd can't execute scripts inside ~/Documents, so install.sh runs a copy at ~/Library/Application Support/flowrinse/. That copy owns the live queue.jsonl / results.jsonl / downloads/ once the agent is running. Re-run ./install.sh after editing launch.sh or local_server_example.py to resync the copy. First run pops one Automation prompt (allow control of Brave) — click Allow on the rig's screen.

launchctl kickstart -k gui/$(id -u)/games.monsterrobot.flowrinse   # run now
launchctl bootout   gui/$(id -u)/games.monsterrobot.flowrinse      # stop it

Enqueue from another project

from flowclient import enqueue
enqueue("Sierra EGA record-store back room, 160x168, 16-color",
        kind="image", category="morp2_bg")

Or over the wire: POST http://localhost:8017/enqueue with {"prompt","kind","model","category","dest"}.
