browser.computer_use.endpoint must use http:// or https://

Error message

browser.computer_use.endpoint must use http:// or https://

What it means

computer_use_endpoint_url rejects an endpoint whose parsed URL scheme is neither http nor https. This is a config validation guard: schemes like file:// or ws:// would be mis-handled by the reqwest client used to reach the sidecar.
