Local-first AI testing for the web. Chat → plain @playwright/test specs that pass CI with zero AI, using your own Claude Code / Codex CLI. 🟠 security · 🔴 pentest.
Installation
Launch VS Code Quick Open (Ctrl+P), paste the following command, and press enter.
Test your web app at the speed of conversation. Describe a flow in plain English, watch AI drive your real browser, and save it as a Playwright spec that runs in CI forever — no agent, no model, no keys.
Hover spawns the coding-agent CLI you already run (Claude Code / OpenAI Codex), drives your real Chrome via Playwright, and crystallizes the verified run into plain @playwright/test code. The AI's job ends at "save" — CI stays pure Playwright, with zero tokens.
Chat to a test file — Describe what you want to verify; Hover drives your real app and saves the verified run as a plain @playwright/test spec. No recording by hand, no brittle selectors.
Multi-environment accounts, handled — Define test accounts per environment (local / staging / prod) once, then just mention @account in chat — the agent logs in for you. Credentials are parameterized into process.env references: never written into the spec, and the same names export to your CI secrets in one click.
Uses your local AI — nothing to configure — Runs on the Claude Code / Codex CLI already on your machine, on the subscription you already pay for. No model keys to wire, no SDK, nothing leaves your computer.
Security & pentest in the same chat — Flip into 🟠 Security (IDOR / broken authorization / business-logic) or 🔴 Pentest (offensive, white-box) against your own app — confirmed findings become .security.spec.ts CI gates or a report.
Self-healing tests (coming) — When a spec breaks in CI, Hover Cloud will repair the UI drift with AI and surface it on a dashboard. Authoring always stays local and free.
Requirements
VS Code 1.85 or higher
One coding-agent CLI on your PATH — Claude Code (npm i -g @anthropic-ai/claude-code) or OpenAI Codex (npm i -g @openai/codex), signed in with your subscription or your own API key.
