Using with AI agents

A SKILL.md is included in skills/chrome-open-tabs/ for use with Claude Code, Openclaw, and other skill-based AI agents. Copy the skills/chrome-open-tabs/ directory into your agent's skills folder to give it access to your open tabs.

Notes

• Mode detection is based on Sync Data/LevelDB presence
• Always prints mode to stderr: [sync-data] or [session-files]
• Sync data works across devices; session files are local only
• If the browser is running, sync data is locked — falls back to session files (local tabs only)
• --device and devices require sync data; both error if the browser is running
