Cold Turkey kills browsers without Cold Turkey extension installed & configured

[adamlogan]

I'm running into an issue where cold turkey pops up into the foreground when this MCP service executes a search. Cold Turkey nags me about installing the cold turkey extension and enabling an option in the extension to allow the extension to operate in incognito/private windows. This is not an option I can disable, so, this is problematic. In Cold Turkey I have set 99 seconds grace period to install / enable and configure the Cold Turkey Extension. I would think that would be enough time for the MCP service to get in complete a search and get out but apparently some searches are taking so long that Cold Turkey does kill the app before the search completes.

I've managed to find the GUI enabled apps and have installed the Cold Turkey extension/addon for those, yet Cold Turkey still isn't satisfied I'm emailing the dev about that.

Am I correct that this MCP server only uses the headless browsers? I looked in the Dist directory and looked through some of the code. I am a baby at coding so I'm not adept at fully understanding what I'm reading or modifying it to suit. What I did glean from looking is the service round-robins the headless browsers that it detects playwright as serving, is that accurate?

Would appreciate help on this issue.

For context, I am on MacOS.
