List Chrome profiles currently connected through the Chat Export extension bridge. Use before browsers_bind to pick a browserId; use browsers_status for the already-bound session only.

Set the active browserId for subsequent chat/project/job tools. Call after browsers_list; does not open tabs by itself. Prefer browsers_status to inspect the current binding without changing it.

Show the currently bound browserId, connection state, and recent alerts. Prefer over browsers_list when you already bound a browser and only need health/permissions.

List supported providers and whether each is enabled on the server and the bound browser. Requires browsers_bind for browser-side enablement; use before chats_* when unsure which platforms are available.

List chats for one platform in the bound browser (titles/ids, optional query). Prefer for discovery; use projects_chats for chats inside one project, chats_get for a full payload, chat_outline for turn indexes. Requires prior browsers_bind.

Return the full ExportPayload for one chat on the bound browser. Prefer for a complete dump of a known chatId; for turn index/previews use chat_outline, for a bounded slice use chat_read, for offline SQLite reuse use chat_cache_*. Empty chatId = currently open tab. Requires browsers_bind.

Build a turn index with short previews for a chat (auto-warms the SQLite cache for long threads). Prefer before chat_read to choose start/end indexes; use chats_get for the full payload, chat_cache_read when the cache is already warm. Empty/omitted chatId = open tab. Requires browsers_bind.

Read a bounded slice of chat turns with a maxChars cap (uses/auto-fills the SQLite cache). Prefer after chat_outline for start/end indexes; use chats_get for the entire chat, chat_cache_read for offline cache-only access. Requires browsers_bind when the cache miss needs a host fetch.

Export one chat via extension builders and write files under exportDir (returns paths). Prefer for durable files; use chats_get for in-memory payload, jobs_enqueue kind=export/export_batch for bulk/async queues. Set async:true to return job_id instead of blocking. Requires browsers_bind; writes to disk.

Create a new chat on the provider UI in the bound browser and seed it with text. Prefer chat_ask when you also need to wait for the assistant reply; use chats_create only to open/seed a chat. Requires browsers_bind and allowCreate on the extension.

Send a prompt on a platform (new or existing chat) via the bound browser and wait for the assistant reply. Prefer over chats_create+manual wait; use jobs_enqueue kind=ask or wait:false for non-blocking. Requires browsers_bind; drives live provider UI (openWorld).

Fetch a chat from the bound browser and store blocks+FTS5 in the temp SQLite cache. Prefer before repeated chat_cache_read on long threads; use chat_outline/chat_read when you need live outline/slice without an explicit sync. Writes local cache only; requires browsers_bind for the host fetch.

Read cached chat blocks from local SQLite by turn range, blockId, or FTS query without hitting the browser. Prefer after chat_cache_sync/chat_outline; use chat_read when the cache may be cold and a live fetch is OK. Identify the copy via cacheId or platform+chatId.

Append turns to an existing local SQLite cache copy and refresh FTS/totals. Prefer for incremental offline updates; use chat_cache_sync to rebuild from the live tab, chat_cache_update_block to edit one turn. Does not write to the provider UI.

Update one cached block (bumps revision) or resync that turn from the live tab via resyncFromHost. Prefer for surgical cache edits; use chat_cache_append to add turns, chat_cache_sync to refresh the whole chat. Local cache only unless resyncFromHost needs the bound browser.

Delete a temp SQLite cached chat (metadata, blocks, FTS). Does not delete the provider chat — use chats_delete for that. Identify via cacheId or platform+chatId. Idempotent on missing rows.

List projects/folders (containers) on a platform via the bound browser. Prefer this over containers_list (identical legacy alias). Use projects_chats for chats inside one project, chats_list for all chats. Requires browsers_bind.

Legacy alias identical to projects_list. Prefer projects_list for new agents; same args and result. Lists projects/folders on a platform via the bound browser.

List chats inside one project/container on the bound browser. Prefer over chats_list when scoped to a known containerId; use projects_list first to discover ids. Requires browsers_bind.

Create a project/folder on the provider UI. Prefer when organizing chats; does not create chats (use chats_create/chat_ask). Requires browsers_bind and allowProjects on the browser.

Permanently delete a project/folder on the provider. Destructive: requires confirm:true, allowProjects, and allowDestructive on the browser. Prefer projects_move_chat to rehome chats first. Does not delete local SQLite cache rows.

Move a chat into a project, or pass containerId null to remove it from its project. Prefer over delete when reorganizing. Requires browsers_bind and allowProjects.

Permanently delete a chat on the provider UI. Destructive and audited: requires confirm:true plus allowDestructive on server and browser. Prefer chats_export first if you need a copy; chat_cache_delete only removes local cache.

Enqueue a background job on the bound browser lane (ask, export, export_batch, delete, delete_batch) and return job_id immediately. Prefer for long/bulk work; use chat_ask/chats_export synchronously when you can wait. Poll with jobs_status; cancel with jobs_cancel. Requires browsers_bind; delete kinds need confirm + allowDestructive.

Get status, progress, result, or error for a job_id from jobs_enqueue. Prefer for polling one job; use jobs_list to browse many. Local job store only.

List background jobs newest-first with optional status/kind/browser filters. Prefer over repeated jobs_status when surveying the queue; use jobs_status for one job_id detail.

Cancel a queued job immediately, or request cancel for a running job. Prefer when stopping work started via jobs_enqueue/chat_ask wait:false. Does not roll back provider-side side effects already applied.
