Thank you for using my module and giving feedback! It's always great to find people actually using your software!

The banner telling that the software is automated is (to my knowledge) not directly detectable by the website. If the website runs Javascript, I think it can detect that the page area is smaller than it "should" be, but other than that, there is no way to detect that there is nobody sitting in front of the browser.

I think the non-incognito mode is somewhat broken if you launch your own window. I'll have to add more tests to that. Currently I don't have a use case for this, so this has fallen a bit into neglect. I'm also not sure how I can test this behaviour well.

For reusing a tab, you will need to have the "main" Chrome instance started with --remote-debugging-port=9222. This will allow Perl to access your main Chrome instance. This is not really great, but I didn't find a better way to let Perl shoulder-surf.
