Does this open up the possibility of automating an existing open browser tab? (Instead of a headless or specifically opened instance of chrome?)

Have you looked into agentic chrome extensions like MultiOn? They use a similar class of AI model, but work on top of existing open browser tabs.

Afaik no. But if it's access to authenticated resources that you want, you can do so by copying over cookies.

Yes^ this is what we suggest. Stagehand is meant to execute isolated tasks on browsers; we support using custom contexts (cookies) with the following command:
npx create-browser-app --example persist-context
