The connector only drove web pages. Add-on sidebar panels — Aegis's
wallet, Hermes's messenger, Pithos's storage panel, anything with
a sidebar-panel capability — were walled off: list_tabs skipped them
and webContents() refused anything that was not kind:"web".
Panels are now first-class tabs with a negative id, kind:"panel", and
an addon/panelId pair. Each open panel is listed next to the real
tabs; a closed one is still listed so a client can see what exists.
screenshot / snapshot / read_page_text / click / type / press_key /
paste_html / paste_text / wait_for / upload_file / evaluate all work
on them with the same TabDriver a web page uses. navigate /
activate_tab / close_tab refuse panels — the user owns panel
visibility, not the connector.
Approval is per add-on under a synthetic theseus-panel://<addon>
origin, so Aegis is approved once and every Aegis panel is reachable
from then on. The approval modal titles itself "Let Claude control
the Aegis panel?" when the origin is a panel origin, and the body
explains the panel is read, not the whole browser profile. Origin
pinning is skipped (the panel is served from the add-on scheme and
never navigates under us); password-field refusal and the action log
still apply, so a PIN input in a wallet panel is never typed into
and every call is in the connector's log.
