Veb Manual

What Veb is, how to install it, and the five keys that do most of the work.

Your tabs, spaces, passwords, cards, bookmarks, history and extensions, straight from the browser you use now.

Every key Veb answers to, and how to give any of them another.

Where everything is set, and a search that finds the switch itself.

Tabs down the side, as in Arc, or in a row across the top. Your choice, one key apart.

Open, close, bring back, switch, move, rename and pick several tabs at once.

The pages you keep open all day, at the top, and the ones you want to keep, above the line.

Tabs grouped under a name, made by holding one tab over another, and folders inside folders.

A folder that keeps itself up to date: your pull requests, issues, files and feeds, in and out on their own.

Old tabs put themselves away, and tabs you aren’t using give their memory back.

Sets of tabs in one window, each with its own name, color and, if you like, sign-ins.

Any two tabs side by side, in one.

Shift-click a link and it opens over the page you’re on. Close it, and you’re right where you were.

A link from Mail or Slack opens in a small window over that app, to read and close.

More than one window, and tabs that leave nothing behind.

Light or dark, a color and grain around the page, the bars, the app icon, and how large pages are.

One field for addresses, search, open tabs, history, commands, settings and a lot more, as in Raycast.

Your search engine, and any site searched from the field: youtube, then Tab.

Type doc for a new document, meet for a new meeting.

Everything you copy on your Mac, kept with its formatting and the page it came from.

Sums, units, currencies, time zones and dates, answered as you type.

Type a colon and a word, and pick one. It finds them by meaning, too.

A link you just copied, your next meeting, a page you open about now most days.

Every page you visited, found by its title, its address, or the words that were on it.

Pages you keep, one menu item to add and one key to find; and every file you downloaded.

The article alone, in a clean column, with the page kept exactly as it was underneath.

Click a cookie banner, an overlay or a sidebar and it’s gone, on that site, for good.

Small changes to the sites you use, tried on your own page first and kept only when you say so.

Ads and trackers stopped before they load, with the lists uBlock Origin uses.

A video lifted out of the page into a small window above everything, and a mini player for music.

A call follows you from tab to tab, mutes from anywhere, and your next meeting is a key away.

Part of a page, what shows, or all of it, framed on a backdrop and straight to the clipboard.

A page in another language, translated in place on your Mac.

Clean links, Markdown links, and a whole page as Markdown or as a file for an agent.

The everyday things: find on the page, zoom, print, swipe back, and what a site may use.

A page from your own server shows its port, its full address, its errors and requests beside the page.

Veb has no model of its own: it works on the Claude or ChatGPT plan you already pay for.

Hand your agent a task in your own words, about the page you’re on or anything else.

Select text anywhere and improve, translate, explain or ask about it, with a model for each command.

Every conversation with your agent, in a column on the right: its steps, its tabs, its questions.

Tabs of its own beside yours, a face that says what it’s doing, and the wheel yours whenever you want it.

In Ask and Auto, Send, Pay and Delete wait for your yes. You choose how much else does.

Which model does what, the plans they come from, and what happens when one runs out.

What agents learn about you, kept on your Mac as notes you can read, correct or forget.

What agents know about a site before they get there, and the actions its pages offer.

Tasks that come back on their own, and replies watched for, with what they find on your new tab.

yab “…” hands a task to an agent in Veb, and agents use Veb’s tools over MCP.

Any agent that speaks MCP can drive Veb: its tabs, your sign-ins, forms, files, memory and mail, with your yes where it counts.

Your Gmail in a space of its own, kept on this Mac and sorted by what each mail wants.

Go through your mail on keys, a thread at a time or many at once, and take back any of it.

Reply to one or to all, forward, attach files and format, and take it back after you send.

Words you write often, put in anywhere by name, and in a mail filled in for whoever it goes to.

Put a mail off until it matters, get yours back if nobody answers, and send when it will be read.

Any mail of any age, by its words, by who wrote it or with Gmail’s own operators.

Split the inbox by who writes and what the mail is, and use Gmail’s labels and lists.

Unsubscribe in one key, keep a sender out, and take the inbox to zero, all of it undoable.

Answer invitations where they came, see what they clash with, and put your free time in a reply.

A notification when something needs you, never while you’re in mail, and a count in the Dock.

⌘J hands your agent the mail in front of you, or all of it: it reads, sums up and drafts, and sends only after your yes.

Kept in your Mac’s keychain, offered under the sign-in box, the one you used last filled when you click there.

Keep your two-step codes beside the password, and fill the ones sites send you. Passkeys come with an update.

Filled in where you pay, ship or tell a site who you are, a card only after Touch ID.

A sign-up, an application, a checkout: every box you’ve answered before, filled at once.

Beyond the look of a site: scripts on its pages, tools your agents can use, a page of its own.

A plugin that checks something on a schedule and wakes your agent only when it changed.

What a plugin’s page script and its own page may ask Veb for, and what you are asked first.

A boost you made goes to everyone through a pull request: checked on its live site, read by a person, then listed.

Chrome extensions, straight from the Chrome Web Store, running on the engine Safari uses.

What stays on your Mac, which is almost everything, and exactly what doesn’t.

Your spaces, tabs, bookmarks and settings on every Mac you use, encrypted so only your devices can read them.

Veb updates itself, quietly, and a note to the people who make it is one card away.
