 | Command | Description |
 |---|---|
 | `open [url]` | Open a browser session or reconnect to an existing one. **Headless by default.** Supports `--headed` (visible window), `--headless`, `--profile <path>`, `--profile-mode <DEFAULT\|SYSTEM_DEFAULT\|SEQUENTIAL\|TEMPORARY>`, `--interact-level <FASTEST\|FAST\|DEFAULT>`. **Note:** `SYSTEM_DEFAULT` is deprecated and unsupported on Chrome ≥ 143 — use `attach` + `state-save`/`state-load` to reuse system browser state (see [browser-state-import.md](skills/browser4-cli/references/browser-state-import.md)). |
-| `attach` | Attach to an existing browser via CDP or the Browser4 extension. Supports `--cdp <url\|port\|channel>` and remote endpoint options. |
+| `attach` | Attach to an existing browser via CDP or the Browser4 extension. Supports `--cdp <url\|port\|channel>` and remote endpoint options. After a successful attach the CLI prints the browser that actually connected (`Connected browser: …` / `Attached to … at …`) and shows a ⚠ warning when it conflicts with the requested channel (e.g. requested msedge but Chrome connected) — verify it before driving the session. |
 | `close` | Close the active browser session. |
-| `list` | List browser sessions with their status and next-open behavior. Supports `--all`. |
+| `list` | List browser sessions with their status and next-open behavior. The Connection column prefers the backend-reported actual browser and annotates channel conflicts (e.g. `requested msedge · actual Google Chrome`). Supports `--all`. |
 | `session-default <name>` | Make a named session become the default unnamed session. |
 | `close-all` | Close all sessions without stopping the backend. |
 | `kill-all` | Force-stop the backend and Browser4-managed browser processes. |
 | `stop` | Gracefully stop the Browser4 server. |
-| `status` | Show server version, port, health, and the web status panel URL (`http://<server>:8182/status`). |
+| `status` | Show server version, port, health, and the web status panel URL (`http://<server>:8182/status`). When a session is active it also prints a current-session block: Name / Session ID / Status / Connection / Next open. |
 | `doctor` | Run diagnostics: build info, LLM status, stale daemon cleanup, optional repair. Supports `--verbose` and `--fix`. |
 | `doctor log [name]` | List, view, tail, or grep backend log files. Supports `--tail`, grep-style flags, and `doctor log <name> grep <pattern>`. |
 | `doctor metrics [filter]` | List, filter, or grep backend metrics. Supports `doctor metrics grep <pattern>`. |

+| `type <text> [ref]` | Type text into the focused element or a target element. Supports `--submit`, `--verify`, `--focus`, `--interactable-timeout`, and `--method auto\|chars\|exec` (requires a target ref; `auto` types short text per-character and bulk-inserts long/multi-line text on textarea/contenteditable via a single `execCommand('insertText')`, `chars` forces per-character typing, `exec` forces the bulk insert). |
 | `press <key> [ref]` | Press a key on the focused element or a target element. Supports `--verify`, `--follow`. |
 | `select <ref> <value>` | Select a dropdown value. Supports `--verify`. |
 | `check <ref>` | Check a checkbox or radio button. |
 | `uncheck <ref>` | Uncheck a checkbox or radio button. |
 | `drag <startRef> <endRef>` | Drag and drop from one element to another. |
 | `wait [target]` | Wait for a selector/ref, duration, text, URL pattern, page-load state, or JavaScript expression. Supports `--timeout`, `--text`, `--url`, `--load`, `--fn`. |
+| `upload <ref> <file> [file...]` | Upload one or more local files to a page file input. The target must be an `<input type="file">` (anything else errors); the paths must be readable by the browser process — local mode: the same machine, and empty/missing files are rejected with a hint; remote backend: paths resolve on the backend host. Supports `--no-snapshot`. |
