Page context vs conversation context: two scopes, one panel
Maho’s AI panel has two scopes: the page in front of you, and the conversation you have been having. They are not flavors. They are different inputs with different failure modes.
Run an MCP server for your browser
MCP gave models a way to call tools. The browser is the right host. This post is how you write your own tool, register it, and use it from the side panel in under an hour.

A tab is a document. A document can be piped, filtered, and rewritten. Maho gives you the wire to do it from the terminal you already use.
