The browser extension and the omw daemon run on your computer. The project runs no server and receives no data from either of them.

Data the extension readsCopy Anchor Link

To carry out a command from the daemon, the extension reads data from the browser. Depending on the command, it reads:

• the address, title and content of pages in the tabs a session uses, or in a tab that a CDP client connects to: text, the accessibility tree, element values, screenshots and PDFs
• cookies and page storage, for the cookies and storage actions
• the requests and responses of a tab while a session records its network traffic
• the addresses and titles of open tabs, for the CDP target list (/json/list) and when a session looks for a tab to borrow

When you open the popup, it reads the address and title of the active tab. On a page that the extension can access, it also reads the page language, the structured-data types, the length of the selected text, and how many tables, form fields, code blocks, videos, images and articles the page has. The popup uses these values to rank prompt suggestions and does not send them anywhere.

Where the data goesCopy Anchor Link

After pairing, the extension connects to one address: the daemon at 127.0.0.1:17373 on the same computer. It sends each result there and to no other address. The daemon accepts connections from the same computer only and returns the result to the program that sent the command, such as an agent or a script. That program decides what happens to the data next; an agent can pass page content to its model provider.

Data on diskCopy Anchor Link

• The extension keeps the daemon token and its settings in the browser's extension storage. Session state lives in session storage, which the browser clears when it restarts.
• The daemon keeps its configuration, including the token, and the session bindings in its configuration directory: ~/Library/Application Support/oh-my-webbridge on macOS, ~/.config/oh-my-webbridge on Linux, or the directory in OMW_HOME. Screenshots and PDFs go to the path given in the command, or to artifacts in that directory.
• Files that the download action saves go to the browser's download folder.

AnalyticsCopy Anchor Link

The extension and the daemon contain no analytics, telemetry, crash reporting or advertising. The filter lists for page presets ship inside the extension; nothing is downloaded at run time.
