Chrome DevTools Protocol (CDP) is a more advanced API, and I've been leading an effort on getting multiple browsers to look at CDP under https://remotedebug.org

Get them to actually version their protocol first, maybe?

As someone with a bunch of tooling around the dev-tools API, it's a huge pain in the ass to not be able to tell what functions the remote browser supports. There's a version number in the protocol description, but it's literally never been incremented as far as I've seen.

File a bug for this.

It should be possible to get the running chrome version and to do feature detection over this protocol.

If it isn't, it's a bug
