Browser actions
Research the web without opening unnecessary tabs
Research requests use background search first, while visible tabs are reserved for pages that require interaction, a logged-in session, or visual inspection.

Background search comes first
Lists, comparisons, news research and open-web fact finding should not scatter tabs across your browser. resolvenengine uses bounded background search, reads relevant sources and returns a cited answer.
- The current tab remains your workspace.
- Source favicons represent the pages being researched.
- The final answer includes the sources used.
When a visible tab is justified
A page opens only when the information needs your logged-in session, the task requires clicking or typing, or the rendered page cannot be understood reliably in the background.
An explicit request to work in the current tab always takes priority over a generic research route.
Research has limits and a stopping rule
Search, page reads and visual fallbacks have time and size ceilings. Repeated failures do not create an endless loop; the answer reports what was verified and what could not be reached.
