What you can do
- Use Addons as the control surface for optional runtime capabilities.

Use Addons as your control center
The Addons area is where you turn on optional capabilities and connect the providers behind them. Instead of editing runtime config by hand, you can see what is available and configure each capability from one dashboard section.
That makes it easier to start with one capability, confirm it works, and then expand your instance with additional tools as your workflow grows.
- Web search providers and token management
- Firecrawl web fetch setup
- Chrome extension and browser-control setup
- Managed restart flow after configuration changes
Common addon workflows
Many addon setups start with web search or web fetch, then expand into browser-control tasks that need a live Chrome session. Keeping those paths together makes the Addons area easier to understand for operators who are building a practical agent stack.
When a capability needs more detail, this page links out to the dedicated guide or feature page so you can complete the full setup without guesswork.
