Browser Extension Permissions?

I am looking for a simple way to find out what permissions are available to a developer for an extension. What permissions in a simple list can be asked of an user? I know there is technical documentation in a very in depth level of how to assign code, but I am looking for high level documentation of what permission levels can be asked of an user. A complete comprehensive high level list and I can't find one. Does this even exist anywhere?

I cannot figure how to post without replying, so this is really a new question.


I notice you can only seemingly ask for both Webpage contents and also Browsing History but I only need to read URLs from a specific domain and never need contents of the DOM which leaves everything readable, like passwords!


Is there a permission that only requires access to the URLs and not the page data itself?
