## Tools

### Browser Automation
Each Kernel feature has a single `manage_*` tool with an `action` parameter, keeping the tool set small and consistent. Four standalone tools handle high-frequency workflows.

- `create_browser` - Launch a new browser session with options (headless, stealth, timeout, profile)
- `get_browser` - Get browser session information
- `list_browsers` - List active browser sessions
- `delete_browser` - Terminate a browser session
- `execute_playwright_code` - Execute Playwright/TypeScript code in a fresh browser session with automatic video replay and cleanup
- `take_screenshot` - Capture a screenshot of the current browser page, optionally specifying a region
### `manage_*` tools

### Profile Management
- `manage_browsers` - Create, list, get, and delete browser sessions. Supports headless/stealth modes, profiles, proxies, viewports, extensions, and SSH tunneling.
- `manage_profiles` - Setup (with guided live browser session), list, and delete browser profiles for persisting cookies and logins.
- `manage_browser_pools` - Create, list, get, delete, and flush pools of pre-warmed browsers. Acquire and release browsers from pools.
- `manage_proxies` - Create, list, and delete proxy configurations (datacenter, ISP, residential, mobile, custom).
- `manage_extensions` - List and delete uploaded browser extensions.
- `manage_apps` - List apps, invoke actions, get/list deployments, and get invocation results.

- `setup_profile` - Create or update browser profiles with guided setup process
- `list_profiles` - List all available browser profiles
- `delete_profile` - Delete browser profile permanently
### Standalone tools

### App Management

- `list_apps` - List apps in your Kernel organization with optional filtering
- `invoke_action` - Execute actions in Kernel apps
- `get_deployment` - Get deployment status and logs
- `list_deployments` - List all deployments with optional filtering
- `get_invocation` - Get action invocation details

### Documentation & Search

- `search_docs` - Search Kernel platform documentation and guides
- `computer_action` - Mouse, keyboard, and screenshot controls for browser sessions (click, type, press_key, scroll, move, get_position, screenshot).
- `execute_playwright_code` - Execute Playwright/TypeScript code against a browser with automatic video replay and cleanup.
- `exec_command` - Run shell commands inside a browser VM. Returns decoded stdout/stderr.
- `search_docs` - Search Kernel platform documentation and guides.
