Automatically closes Twitch tabs when the streamer raids someone else. Works with Stream Monitor. Stream Monitor Companion is the browser-side half of Stream Monitor, a Windows desktop app that watches your favorite Twitch streamers and opens their stream the moment they go live. This extension handles everything that has to happen inside the browser: • Raid auto-close — when a streamer you're watching raids someone else, the tab closes automatically so you're not dragged into a channel you didn't pick. Optional "follow through one raid" mode lets you stay for a single hop. • Stays counted as a viewer — Twitch only counts unmuted players, but browsers block unmuted audio in background tabs. The extension keeps the Twitch player itself unmuted (so you still show up in the viewer count) while letting you mute the tab at the browser level. • Auto-mute tabs — optional toggle. Opens every Stream Monitor tab with the tab silenced so a dozen streams don't all shout at you at once. • Keepalive — periodically nudges the player to stop Twitch from dropping you as "idle" in background tabs, and dismisses "click to unmute" / content-gate overlays so streams keep running unattended. • Low-quality mode — optional. Sets every Stream Monitor tab to the lowest available quality to save bandwidth when you're watching many streams in the background. • Max-tabs limit — cap how many concurrent Stream Monitor tabs can be open at once. • Auto-focus — new tabs is now ON by default to prevent streak loss when browsers open external links in background. Auto-recovers from Twitch's "Click Here to Reload Player" network error overlay (#2000) The extension only activates on tabs opened by the Stream Monitor desktop app (identified by a ?sm=1 query parameter). Tabs you open yourself are left completely alone. Requires the Stream Monitor desktop app running on the same PC. Download: https://github.com/caedicious/stream-monitor
