Use the built-in OpenWork Browser for websites. To work in a native Mac app, use the separate Computer Use extension. OpenWork can open pages, click, fill forms, read page content, and take screenshots inside that browser. If you connect to a remote OpenWork server, the browser runs on that remote worker. Today, the supported path is the first-party OpenWork Browser extension.

Requirements

  • Use the desktop app or a remote worker that exposes the OpenWork Browser.
  • Keep OpenWork Browser enabled in Settings > Library.
Then go back to the session view and ask OpenWork to open a website. In the desktop browser toolbar, Suspend frees a tab’s memory after a warning. This is manual, not a page snapshot: form input, scroll position, and page history are lost. Reload or selecting the suspended tab opens its saved URL again. Tabs opened or restored for browser work stay protected until browser.release_tab declares all running and queued work complete. Release does not suspend or invalidate the current target; there is no automatic reclamation. For later work, browser.restore_tab checks conversation ownership and returns a fresh protected handle to use.

Keyboard shortcuts

In the desktop app, these shortcuts apply when a built-in browser page, its URL field, or its browser controls have focus: The native app menu’s Close command also closes the focused browser tab before closing the window. Reopening creates a fresh page from a URL kept only in memory, not a saved page snapshot. It does not restore form input, scroll position, or page history, and closed-tab URLs do not survive an app restart. After closing the last browser tab, press the reopen shortcut immediately. Clicking elsewhere, pressing Tab, or changing conversations clears that immediate browser context. With the chat composer focused, Cmd+T / Ctrl+T still cycles conversations instead of reopening a browser tab.
