When the install script is executed via `curl ... | bash`, it always
runs in a bash process, so $BASH_VERSION is always set regardless of
the user's actual shell. This causes PATH to be written to ~/.bashrc
even for zsh users, making the `browser-use` command unavailable.
Use $SHELL (the user's login shell) instead of $BASH_VERSION/$ZSH_VERSION
to detect the correct shell RC file.
Fixes#4440
The profile-use install script fetches the latest version from GitHub API,
which is rate-limited to 60 req/hour for unauthenticated requests. CI
runners share IPs and exhaust this limit. Pin to v1.0.2 to skip the API
call. Users can update later via browser-use profile update.
- Pass INSTALL_DIR to sh instead of curl so profile-use installs to
the correct location (~/.browser-use/bin/)
- Replace macOS-specific 'brew install cloudflared' with generic link
Unify all CLI-managed files under ~/.browser-use/ (config, sockets, PIDs,
binaries, tunnels) instead of scattering across ~/.config/browser-use/ and
~/.browser-use/run/. Add profile-use Go binary as managed subcommand via
browser-use profile, with auto-download fallback and install.sh integration.
Wire cloudflared and profile-use availability checks into browser-use doctor.
Replace the multi-session server (server.py, SessionRegistry, portalocker locking,
PID files, orphan detection) with a minimal daemon (daemon.py) that holds one
BrowserSession in memory. Socket file existence = alive. Auto-exits when browser
dies via CDP watchdog.

Changes install.sh to clone from github.com/browser-use/browser-use@main
by default instead of installing from PyPI. Custom branches and repos
can still be specified via BROWSER_USE_BRANCH and BROWSER_USE_REPO
environment variables.
