Humanize Automation
Replace instant programmatic interactions with human-like mouse movements, keyboard typing, and scroll patterns. Patches Playwright's API at the class level — page.click(), page.type(), page.fill(), and Locator methods are automatically replaced with Bézier-curved mouse paths, per-character typing with mistypes, and multi-phase scroll acceleration. One flag (humanize=True) enables all behavioral patches. No code changes required.
When to Use
- Target uses behavioral bot detection (mouse trajectory analysis, typing speed profiling).
- reCAPTCHA v3 scores are low (<0.3) despite correct browser fingerprint.
- Target times out or challenges after rapid form submissions.
- Need to simulate a real user browsing session for login or account creation.
- Target uses
requestAnimationFrame-based mouse movement tracking.
Prerequisites
terminal tool with python3.
cloakbrowser installed: pip install cloakbrowser.
- Or standalone Playwright with custom patching: import
patch_page from the humanize module.
Quick Start
from cloakbrowser import launch
browser = launch(humanize=True)
page = browser.new_page()
page.goto("https://target.com/login")
page.locator("#email").fill("user@example.com")
page.locator("#password").fill("password123")
page.locator("button[type=submit]").click()
browser.close()
Procedure
Phase 1 — Default Humanization
One flag enables all behavior patches:
browser = launch(
headless=False,
proxy="http://residential-proxy:port",
geoip=True,
humanize=True,
)
page = browser.new_page()
page.goto("https://target.com")
page.locator("input[name='search']").fill("restricted query")
page.locator("button[type='submit']").click()
Phase 2 — Careful Mode (Slower, More Deliberate)
For sites that profile interaction speed:
browser = launch(
humanize=True,
human_preset="careful",
)
Careful preset changes: typing 100±50ms (vs 70±40ms), click aim 80-180ms (vs 60-140ms), idle_between_actions enabled with 0.4-1.0s pauses.
Phase 3 — Custom Behavior Profile
Override individual parameters for site-specific tuning:
from cloakbrowser import HumanConfig
custom = HumanConfig(
typing_delay=150,
typing_delay_spread=60,
typing_pause_chance=0.15,
mistype_chance=0.03,
mouse_wobble_max=2.0,
click_aim_delay_input=(100, 200),
scroll_delta_base=(60, 100),
idle_between_actions=True,
idle_between_duration=(0.5, 1.5),
)
browser = launch(humanize=True, human_config=custom)
Phase 4 — Per-Call Overrides
Override behavior for individual interactions:
page.locator("#password").fill("secret", human_config={"typing_delay": 200})
page.locator("#submit").click(human_config={"click_aim_delay_input": (0, 0)})
Phase 5 — Standalone Humanization (Without CloakBrowser)
Patch an existing Playwright page:
from playwright.sync_api import sync_playwright
from cloakbrowser.human import patch_page, resolve_config
pw = sync_playwright().start()
browser = pw.chromium.launch()
page = browser.new_page()
config = resolve_config("default")
patch_page(page, config)
page.locator("#email").fill("user@example.com")
Behavioral Parameters Reference
Mouse Movement
| Parameter | Default | Effect |
|---|
mouse_steps_divisor | 8 | Controls smoothness (lower = smoother, more steps) |
mouse_min_steps | 25 | Minimum steps per movement |
mouse_max_steps | 80 | Maximum steps per movement |
mouse_wobble_max | 1.5 px | Sideways sinusoidal wobble amplitude |
mouse_overshoot_chance | 0.15 | Probability of overshooting target |
mouse_overshoot_px | (3, 6) px | Overshoot distance |
Movement algorithm: Cubic Bézier curve with 2 random perpendicular control points → ease-in-out cubic easing → sinusoidal wobble → 15% overshoot chance with correction.
Keyboard Typing
| Parameter | Default | Effect |
|---|
typing_delay | 70 ms | Average per-character delay |
typing_delay_spread | 40 ms | Random spread around delay |
typing_pause_chance | 0.10 | Thinking pause probability per character |
typing_pause_range | (400, 1000) ms | Thinking pause duration |
mistype_chance | 0.02 | Typo probability per character |
mistype_delay_notice | (100, 300) ms | Time before noticing typo |
mistype_delay_correct | (50, 150) ms | Time to correct typo |
field_switch_delay | (800, 1500) ms | Delay when switching between form fields |
Typing algorithm: Per-character delay with random spread → 10% pause chance → 2% typo chance (nearby key → notice → backspace → retype) → Shift symbols via CDP Input.dispatchKeyEvent for isTrusted=true.
Scrolling
| Parameter | Default | Effect |
|---|
scroll_delta_base | (80, 130) px | Scroll distance per step |
scroll_accel_steps | (2, 3) | Acceleration phase steps |
scroll_decel_steps | (2, 3) | Deceleration phase steps |
scroll_overshoot_chance | 0.10 | Probability of overshooting |
scroll_overshoot_px | (50, 150) px | Overshoot distance |
scroll_target_zone | (0.20, 0.80) | Target zone in viewport |
scroll_settle_delay | (300, 600) ms | Delay after reaching target |
Scroll algorithm: Accelerate (2-3 steps, 80-100px) → cruise (80-130px, burst into 20-40px wheel chunks at 8-20ms intervals) → decelerate (2-3 steps, 60-90px) → 10% overshoot chance with correction.
Click Behavior
| Parameter | Default | Effect |
|---|
click_aim_delay_input | (60, 140) ms | Delay before clicking input elements |
click_aim_delay_button | (80, 200) ms | Delay before clicking buttons |
click_hold_input | (40, 100) ms | Hold duration on inputs |
click_hold_button | (60, 150) ms | Hold duration on buttons |
click_input_x_range | (0.05, 0.30) | Click position within input (left side) |
Idle Behavior
| Parameter | Default | Effect |
|---|
idle_between_actions | False | Enable micro-movements between actions |
idle_between_duration | (0.3, 0.8) sec | Idle duration between actions |
idle_drift_px | 3 px | Random cursor drift during idle |
idle_pause_range | (300, 1000) ms | Idle pause duration |
initial_cursor_x | (400, 700) px | Starting cursor X (address bar area) |
initial_cursor_y | (45, 60) px | Starting cursor Y (address bar area) |
Presets
| Preset | Typing | Aim Delay | Idle Between | Use Case |
|---|
default | 70±40ms | 60-140ms | No | Normal human speed |
careful | 100±50ms | 80-180ms | Yes (0.4-1.0s) | Slower, more deliberate |
Pitfalls
- Humanize requires the wrapper. Connecting via CDP without the wrapper loses humanization — only fingerprint patches work over raw CDP.
- ElementHandle objects bypass humanization in Playwright. Use
page.click(selector) or page.locator(selector).* — avoid query_selector() handles.
page.fill() with humanize clears existing content and types character by character. This is intentional but slower than raw fill().
- Typing speed profiling exists. Some sites measure ms-between-keystrokes. Use
careful preset or increase typing_delay for suspicious targets.
- Scroll-to-element is automatic. On click/hover, the element is scrolled into view with human scroll before interaction.
- CDP Isolated Worlds are used for stealth DOM queries. This prevents monkey-patch detection in the main JavaScript context.
Verification
- Test against
https://deviceandbrowserinfo.com — should show 24/24 behavioral signals passed.
- Compare reCAPTCHA v3 scores with and without
humanize=True — humanize should increase score by 0.2-0.4.
- Use browser DevTools Performance tab to record a session — mouse events should show realistic timing curves, not instant jumps.
- Verify
Input.dispatchKeyEvent events have isTrusted: true in the event listener.
