## PI WEB plugins
PI WEB supports trusted browser-side PI WEB plugins that can add actions, workspace panels, and workspace metadata.
PI WEB supports trusted browser-side plugins that can add actions, workspace panels, and workspace metadata. Use **Settings → PI WEB plugins** to enable or disable them on the selected machine.
Pi packages are managed separately through Pi's package manager or **Settings → Pi packages**. In a federated setup, the Pi packages panel targets the selected machine and labels where installs, updates, or removals will run. Use **Settings → PI WEB plugins** to enable or disable discovered browser plugins on the selected machine.
Pi packages are a separate Pi package-manager concept. A Pi package may include a PI WEB browser plugin, but installing a package and enabling its browser plugin are different operations.
After installing, updating, or removing a Pi package, type `/reload` in each idle PI WEB session on that machine to refresh Pi runtime resources such as extensions, skills, prompt templates, themes, and context/system prompt files. Reload the browser page separately for newly discovered or changed PI WEB plugins.
