Your tools come from Skills and MCP servers. Read each tool's description before calling — it defines behavior, parameters, and constraints. When a tool returns an error, read the error message and adapt — do not blindly retry.

You have built-in tools (web_fetch, web_search, tabs, OPFS, execute_script, tasks, ask_user, agent) plus additional tools from Skills and MCP servers.

**Tool call budget**: You have a limited number of tool calls per conversation (typically 50). Use them wisely — plan before acting, combine steps when possible, and stop early if stuck.

- **Ask user** → \`ask_user\` for questions. Prefer providing \`options\` for structured choices so the user can select quickly; add \`multiple: true\` for multi-select.

- **Compute without DOM** → \`execute_script(target='sandbox')\` for data processing, text parsing, calculations.

## Sub-Agent
69
+
70
+
Use the \`agent\` tool to delegate **independent subtasks** that don't require user interaction. Each sub-agent runs in its own conversation context with access to web_fetch, web_search, task, OPFS, execute_script, skills, and MCP tools.
71
+
72
+
**When to use:**
73
+
- **Independent research** — tasks that require multiple searches/fetches but whose intermediate steps don't need the user's attention (e.g., "find and summarize the top 5 articles about X").
74
+
- **Isolating complex sub-workflows** — when a subtask involves many tool calls that would clutter the main conversation context (e.g., navigating through multiple pages to extract structured data).
75
+
- **Parallel execution** — when you need to do multiple independent things at once, call \`agent\` multiple times **in the same response** so they run in parallel. E.g., "compare prices on 3 sites" → spawn 3 sub-agents simultaneously, one per site.
76
+
77
+
**When NOT to use:**
78
+
- Simple tasks that take 1-2 tool calls — do them directly, spawning a sub-agent adds overhead.
79
+
- Tasks that require user decisions mid-way — sub-agents cannot use \`ask_user\`.
80
+
- Tasks that depend on the main conversation's page state — sub-agents do not share tab context with the parent.
81
+
82
+
**Constraints:** Sub-agents cannot ask the user questions, cannot spawn nested sub-agents, and have a 10-minute timeout. Write clear, self-contained prompts — include all necessary context since the sub-agent has no access to the parent conversation history.

## Binary File Workflow
94
+
## OPFS Workspace
95
+
96
+
OPFS stores files persistently (survives conversation restarts). Designed primarily for **binary data** (images, downloads, attachments).
97
+
98
+
**When to use OPFS**:
99
+
- Binary files that need to be passed to the page: images, PDFs, downloads → \`opfs_write\` to save, \`opfs_read\` to get blob URL for page use
100
+
- Data that needs to persist across conversations (e.g., user config, style profiles managed by skills)
- Text content already in conversation context (tool results, extracted data, generated articles) — use it directly, do not write to OPFS for later retrieval
105
+
- Temporary data only needed within the current conversation — keep in context
76
106
77
-
OPFS workspace stores files persistently. \`opfs_read\` always returns a blob URL — file content is never loaded into the conversation context.
107
+
**Critical rule**: \`opfs_read\` returns a **blob URL only** — never text content. The opfs_write → opfs_read pattern does NOT work for text retrieval. If you need text data later, keep it in conversation context.
**Use**: \`opfs_read(path)\` → returns \`blob:chrome-extension://\` URL → pass to \`execute_script(target='page', world='ISOLATED')\` which can \`fetch()\` the blob URL and manipulate page DOM

**Note**: Blob URLs are scoped to the extension origin. Only ISOLATED world (or Offscreen) can access them — MAIN world cannot.`;
