List all open browser windows (main + popups).
AI agents call browser_window_list to retrieve information from Termux Browser Pilot without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool only lists/enumerates existing browser windows. It performs a read-only query of browser state with no ability to modify, delete, or execute actions. The blast radius of misuse is minimal—an AI agent could at most observe which windows are open, which poses no direct security risk compared to other categories.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'browser_window_list' and description 'List all open browser windows (main + popups)' indicate a query operation that retrieves state information without modification or side effects.

"browser_window_list": {}
