 The compact popup shows daemon connectivity and per-workspace capacity and Session counts, with confirmation before stopping a Session or clearing Sessions in one workspace. The popup does not include a global stop-all action. These actions are executed by the same Node daemon as the CLI, over the existing CDP-backed Extension RPC. No shell access or HTTP listener is granted to the Extension. The persistent ChatGPT queue is not deleted, and queued work may create new Sessions afterward.
 
-New installations use the default Chrome tab group `WebHelm` and the idle page `helm.html`. Idle URLs use only `workspace` and `role=idle`; Lease URLs use Chrome's actual `tabId` for initial CDP target discovery. There is no separate slot identity. Every newly created WebHelm-managed tab group (default and custom) is placed at the far right of its Chrome window. Existing groups retain their user-chosen position during restoration, legacy migration and Session allocation. Chrome-saved tab group shortcuts in the bookmarks bar are separate from active groups and cannot safely be deduplicated through the Extension API. Legacy `Harness` default groups migrate only when their tabs are idle. Custom workspace names are unchanged; the old `workspace.html` path and lease titles remain readable until their Sessions finish. Closing an allocated Session returns its managed tabs to the idle page, retaining physical Chrome targets, while unleased popup children are closed. Do not manually remove active managed tabs.

 For a real browser integration check on macOS, run `node test/e2e/extension-control.e2e.mjs`; it creates a temporary isolated Chrome profile and daemon and does not touch the current production Sessions.
