Hey blink-dev, In Chrome M146, we plan to Enable AI Origin Trial APIs in DevTools <https://chromium-review.googlesource.com/c/chromium/src/+/7238674>, including for devtools panels added by extensions <https://developer.chrome.com/docs/extensions/reference/api/devtools/panels>, regardless of whether the extensions themselves have OT tokens.
Motivation: We want developers to experiment with Built-In AI API usage from devtools panels, as we believe this is the best surface for exploring API usage on the page being inspected. Our team prototyped an extension <https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/chrome-webai-extension/oikhpnhaggpomechbkgloecpppcdecmk> (initially limited to the Google organization) adding such a panel. Obstacle: Origin Trial feature support is not available within devtools nor its embedded frames, and the OT team doesn’t believe this is readily addressable. Solution: After consulting with the OT team, we believe it is reasonable to enable select OT APIs within devtools WebViews, guarded by a base::Feature flag in case any issues arise. The APIs’ permissions-policies are already granted to devtools extension panel iframes <http://cs/h/chrome-internal/codesearch/chrome/src/+/main:third_party/devtools-frontend/src/front_end/panels/common/ExtensionView.ts?l=28> . Please reach out if there’s any concern with this plan, thanks!
