Can you tell me about how you plan to use these methods? Would it be possible to instead update automatically from within the module?

I am using the tabUpdated method here.

For example, I have a custom tab discarding system which would need manually updating.

{
  assignTabDetails: (tabDetails, tabWebContents) => {
    const tab = tabManager.getTabByWebContents(tabWebContents);
    if (!tab) return;

    tabDetails.title = tab.title;
    tabDetails.url = tab.url;
    tabDetails.favIconUrl = tab.faviconURL ?? undefined;
    tabDetails.discarded = tab.asleep;
    tabDetails.autoDiscardable = false;
  }
}

The chrome.tabs implementation listens to a list of events in order to know when to trigger chrome.tabs.onUpdated.

electron-browser-shell/packages/electron-chrome-extensions/src/browser/api/tabs.ts

Lines 50 to 69 in 1135fdd

	const updateEvents = [
	'page-title-updated', // title
	'did-start-loading', // status
	'did-stop-loading', // status
	'media-started-playing', // audible
	'media-paused', // audible
	'did-start-navigation', // url
	'did-redirect-navigation', // url
	'did-navigate-in-page', // url
	// Listen for 'tab-updated' to handle all other cases which don't have
	// an official Electron API such as discarded tabs. App developers can
	// emit this event to trigger chrome.tabs.onUpdated if a property has
	// changed.
	'tab-updated',
	]
	const updateHandler = () => {
	this.onUpdated(tabId)
	}

I've added a listener for "tab-updated" to handle all cases not already provided by Electron itself (88c50f4).

// Discard tab in your app's implementation
tab.discard()

// Emit tab-updated to make ElectronChromeExtensions aware of the change
tab.webContents.emit('tab-updated')

This eliminates the need for both windowUpdated and tabUpdated as the tab details will be invalidated properly.
