# Spawn Chrome instances

Right after starting the CLI, you have the option to choose "Spawn Chrome Instances" as second available action.&#x20;

This will **automatically open every Chrome user** on your computer that has a [**shortcut for mirror mode defined**](/getting-started/shortcuts.md)**!**

In your [settings.json](https://docs.pepperscripts.com/getting-started/cli/pages/-M_XOszXGomxz7135gcR#the-settings.json) file, you find a line called "Spawn Limit".

Here you can define how many Chrome instances the CLI should **spawn as a maximum**.&#x20;

{% hint style="info" %}
For example if you leave the default number of 10, the CLI will spawn 10 Chrome instances, even if you have a shortcut defined in 15 Chrome instances. However, if the limit is at 10 and you have a shortcut defined in only 5 instances, the CLI will only open 5 instances.
{% endhint %}
