Is there a way to automatically google cast a chrome tab or a specific website everytime I visit the website URL ?

Any command or function or script or bat file ?

No, you can't and even if you could, it is strongly recommended not to do that; user has to initiate the process and select a target explicitly. Here is two simple scenarios that can totally go wrong:

  • What if there are multiple devices on the same network? How does it know which one to choose?
  • Imagine your family is in front of the TV in living room, and you are in your bedroom and open that web page, all of sudden it starts casting to your living room.
