Options: 'allow' opens new window, 'block' prevents popup entirely, 'new_tab' opens in foreground tab, 'background' opens in background tab. Default behavior may vary by browser.
browser_get_tabsList all tabs/windows in the browser context. Returns tab ID, URL, title, and active status for each tab. Use to discover which tabs are open and get tab IDs for switching or closing.
browser_switch_tabSwitch focus to a specific tab by its ID. The tab becomes the active tab, and subsequent browser operations will interact with that tab's content. Other tabs continue running in the background.
browser_close_tabClose a specific tab by its ID. The tab is destroyed and its resources freed. If the closed tab was active, another tab becomes active. Cannot close the last remaining tab.
browser_new_tabOpen a new tab in the browser context. Optionally navigate to a URL immediately. The new tab becomes active by default. Use for parallel browsing within a single context.
browser_get_active_tabGet information about the currently active (focused) tab. Returns tab ID, URL, and title. Browser operations target this tab unless you switch to another.
