Connect Chrome DevTools to Crush

Give Crush governed access to Chrome DevTools’s 26 tools through Runlayer, with identity, policy, scanning, and audit on every call.

Set up

Add Chrome DevTools to Crush in four steps

Admins approve the server once. Everyone in Crush then gets it through the same governed connection.

  1. 1

    Approve Chrome DevTools in Runlayer

    Add Chrome DevTools from the catalog and choose who can use it and which of its tools are allowed.

  2. 2

    Connect Crush to Runlayer

    Install the Runlayer CLI so Crush can reach Chrome DevTools, which runs on the user’s machine.

  3. 3

    Sign in to Chrome DevTools

    Sign in the way Chrome DevTools requires. Runlayer holds the credentials so they stay out of the client’s configuration.

  4. 4

    Use Chrome DevTools from Crush

    Chrome DevTools’s approved tools appear in Crush. Every call is checked against policy and recorded.

Control

What Runlayer can see and stop in Crush

Some controls apply to every client at the gateway. Others depend on what Crush exposes to Runlayer.

  • Gateway policy (available)

    Every Chrome DevTools call from Crush passes through Runlayer, where your policies can allow, alert, mask, or block it.

  • Audit trail (available)

    Each call is recorded with the user, Crush as the client, the tool, and the policy and scanner decisions.

  • Native enforcement adapter (not available)

    Runlayer has no device-side adapter for Crush yet, so control happens at the gateway.
