v0.7.3
Ghostlight v0.7.3 makes its 25 browser tools easier for agents to choose and keeps service updates independent from Chrome Web Store review.
Ghostlight gives compatible AI agents a visible, local workspace in the Chromium profile you already use. Signed-in sessions stay in the browser, and you can pause, take over, or add policy and audit when the job calls for them.
What's changed
- All 25 tools now publish clear display titles and conservative behavior hints for read-only, destructive, idempotent, and open-world actions.
- Focused descriptions distinguish overlapping tools and name the exact tab helpers an agent should call.
update_planis now a truthful service-local informational echo. It changes no permissions and needs no Chrome adapter update.- Service and Chrome adapter versions now move independently through an explicit compatibility map, so a service-only release does not restart store review.
- Conventional root license discovery now sits alongside the detailed open-core boundary in
LICENSING.md.

Compatibility
Chrome adapter v0.7.1 is the public browser component for this release and covers Ghostlight service versions v0.7.1 through v0.7.3. Windows and Linux are verified end to end against live browsers. macOS builds and passes the full test suite in CI; live-browser verification there is still owed.
