Short answers about what TabTunnel can reach, what it cannot, and what happens when you want it to stop. If yours is not here, write to us.
You need an AI tool that supports MCP — Claude Code, Cursor and the rest are aimed at people who write software, so in practice most people here are developers. Setting TabTunnel up is installing an extension and pasting one line.
No. An app that connects over OAuth — Claude.ai, Claude Desktop, a ChatGPT connector — takes the TabTunnel server address and nothing else. It opens a TabTunnel page in your browser, you sign in and approve it there, and it comes back holding its own key. You never see the key, so there is nothing to paste into the wrong window. It shows up on your tokens page like any other, and you can remove it from there whenever you want to. Command-line tools like Claude Code still take a token you paste, which is the line on that page.
It works inside a page the same way you do, so it sees what’s on screen. It cannot read your saved passwords, and it is blocked from Chrome’s settings pages and from the TabTunnel dashboard. You choose whether it asks permission before each new site.
Yes — it drives the browser on your own machine. If Chrome is closed, your AI is simply told that browser is offline. A browser nobody is using sits quietly until the first request wakes it.
Yes. Every browser you own, every capability, as many AI tools as you like, no card. Paying starts only when browsers are shared between people on a team.
Use Create a business account: it asks for your team’s name, then for your account — with Google, with GitHub or with a password — and makes the two together, with you as the organization’s owner. The organization is switched on by its first payment, on its Billing page, and nothing is charged before that. Already have an account? Open the account menu and choose New organization. Your own browsers stay free either way, in the personal organization every account gets.
Hit Pause agents, next to that browser in your dashboard, or in the extension popup. The browser stays enrolled and everything you have shared stays shared — nothing can drive it until you hit Resume. Anything currently using that browser stops at its next action. Revoke is the permanent one: it cuts that browser off for good, and the machine has to enrol again from the extension before anybody can use it. Removing the extension does the same thing from the other end.
No. The record covers what the assistant did through TabTunnel — pages it opened, things it clicked — and nothing else about your browsing. On your own personal browsers, that log is yours alone.
