What I found:
A contributor reported that Browser list_tabs from a non-interactive scheduled execution fails with: Browser access requires the originating browser context. Open ChatGPT in the browser with the connected extension and try again.
OpenAI documents the ChatGPT browser extension as working from the ChatGPT desktop app to read or act on sites in the user's Chromium-based browser, including mentioning open browser tabs via @-mentions after setup under Settings > Computer Use.

Still unknown:
Whether Browser list_tabs can work in any scheduled-task mode (web, desktop standalone, or chat-scoped) when the desktop app and extension remain connected.
Useful next check:
