Split view for assistant actions
Oasis enables Mozilla’s split-view capability so the assistant can place two tabs side-by-side when users ask.
What this is
Oasis enables Firefox’s split view so the assistant can place two tabs side by side—for example “compare this page with search results.”
How to use it
- Ask in plain language, e.g. “Put this tab and Wikipedia side by side.”
- Confirm any prompt if the assistant offers a destructive or window-changing action.
- Drag the split divider like a normal split window.
Notes and limits
Split view requires supported tab types; some privileged pages cannot pair the same way as normal sites.

Multiple light and dark themes for the assistant chrome (not only system theme); choice syncs via prefs / bridge.
Busy / streaming state
Visual feedback while the model or tools are working (AssistantBusyBar, streaming into the timeline).
