Standardize single profile + DISPLAY + CDP port mapping for local FSB Chrome (document) #133

Description

@Trace824

Summary

Local multi-Chrome setups confuse DISPLAY, user-data-dir, and --remote-debugging-port. Clipboard tools (xclip) and CDP clients fail when they target a different display/port than the Chrome that holds the FSB session.

Repro

  • Context: Several Chrome profiles and displays on one Linux host.
  • Steps:
    1. Launch Chrome A on DISPLAY :N with CDP port P.
    2. Point clipboard/CDP helpers at a different DISPLAY/port.
    3. Attempt paste or debugger attach while FSB MCP uses the extension bridge.
  • Observed: paste no-ops; debugger/scripts miss the intended browser.

Code pointers (verified against /workspace/FSB)

  • mcp/README.md / root README.md — bridge ports 7225/7226 (FSB hub, not Chrome CDP).
  • extension/README.md — unpacked install.
  • Ops practice: document a single recommended map (one profile, one DISPLAY, one CDP port) for local FSB use.

Proposed fix

Add an ops doc table: recommended one-profile layout; clarify FSB bridge ports vs Chrome --remote-debugging-port; note clipboard DISPLAY must match the Chrome window.

Acceptance / regression

  • Doc exists and is linked from README.
  • New contributors can run one Chrome without port/DISPLAY collisions.
