A string.
Executed from inside a worker script, the following snippet will log the worker's global scope's origin to the console each time it receives a message

onmessage = () => { console.log(self.origin); };
If the origin is not a scheme/host/port tuple (say you are trying to run it locally, i.e. via file:// URL), origin will return the string "null".
