+# Experimental Browser Plugin
+
+The server-side browser tool lives alongside the other built-in plugins. Its
+implementation uses only the public plugin API, public schemas, and Effect. The
+shared RPC contract is `@opencode-ai/schema/browser`; desktop clients do not import Core.
+
+Disable it through normal plugin configuration:
+
+```jsonc
+{
+  "plugins": ["-opencode.browser"],
+}
+```
+
+The desktop implementation connects with `client.rpc(Browser.Definition)` at the
+session's location. Subscribe to server events before calling `attach`; wait for
+`server.connected`, then the matching `attached` control event. The `attach` call
+stays pending for the attachment lifetime. Abort it when its event stream ends or
+the desktop owner closes. Completing the attachment also ends that event consumer.
+
+- `attach` holds one browser attachment per session until cancellation, plugin
+  unload, session deletion, or session movement.
+- `state` reports the current page, or `null` when no page is open.
+- `result` completes a command with its request ID and outcome.
+- `control` events carry attachment confirmation, commands, and cancellation.
+
+Control events use OpenCode's existing authenticated, server-wide event feed.
+Consumers filter by `connectionID`; this identifier is correlation, not private
+event delivery. State and results use RPC calls rather than broadcast events.
+
+The plugin requests normal agent permissions before acting on a URL. Browser
+content is untrusted. Pages use the desktop's network, with no server-side tunnel.
+The desktop owns Chromium, page isolation, and native controls.

 ### Permissions
 
+Assert permission before a plugin action. This plugin-only method uses the generated client's `PermissionCreateInput`
+and returns no value: `allow` completes immediately, `ask` waits for a reply, and `deny` fails.
+
+```ts
+await ctx.permission.assert({
+  sessionID,
+  action: "deploy",
+  resources: ["staging"],
+  save: ["staging"],
+})
+```
+
+Promise plugins receive `Promise<void>`. Effect plugins receive `Effect<void, unknown>` and run it with
+`yield* ctx.permission.assert(input)`. Let a rejection propagate so the action does not run. A rejection without feedback
+preserves the permission engine's session-interruption behavior; a rejection with feedback carries `Permission.CorrectedError`.
+
 Inspect or resolve pending permission requests.
