Tabs page, light theme Every open tab from every window in this browser profile is listed with its favicon, title, URL and window. To share tabs in another browser profile, open that profile’s dashboard. Each row shows badges for its state:

​
Sharing

  • Share / Stop per row. Stop detaches immediately.
  • Share everything shares current and future tabs except those you explicitly stopped or unshared. Per-tab switches remain available to revoke or restore access. Switching it off unshares every tab that was not shared individually.
  • Shared state for individual tabs is per browser session; Share everything persists across restarts.
The dashboard uses this browser’s native tab numbers. MCP tools use different, globally unique tabId values so tabs from several browsers cannot collide. Ask the agent to use IDs returned by browser_tabs or browser_status, rather than a number from the dashboard. Those results also identify the owning browserId.

​
Tips

  • Open the page the agent should work on, share only that tab, and keep everything else private.
  • Work in background is on by default: input and screenshots do not activate agent tabs. Tabs the agent opens land in the selected browser’s current window. Turn the setting off only if you want foreground interaction.
  • A tab on chrome://newtab can be shared; the agent can navigate it to a website but cannot inspect the New Tab page itself.
