Open Flow

Status: draft | Updated 2026-07-05 | Applies to: AMPB users and implementers

ampbrowser open prepares a safe launch plan for one URL. It routes the URL, checks only the selected transport, and reports whether the browser can open immediately or needs a first-use setup prompt.

AMPB does not install or start Tor, I2P, Reticulum, or other optional transports when the application starts. Setup is lazy:

  1. The user opens a URL.
  2. AMPB selects the required transport.
  3. If the transport is already running, AMPB adopts it.
  4. If the transport is missing, AMPB shows a prompt naming what will be installed or started.
  5. AMPB proceeds only after approval.

Current open output is a dry-run launch spec. It is intentionally side-effect free while the transport adapters and browser launcher are being stabilized.
