Description
Automatically closes tabs that haven't been focused for a while. A simple browser extension (Chrome & Firefox) that closes your tabs after they have been inactive for a specified amount of time. The timer resets whenever you use/focus a tab or when the tab is pinned. This extension was developed in part to add the "close tabs after inactivity" feature to Zen which is missing, coming from Arc. --- Features ✨ Clicking the extension icon opens the settings popup where you can configure: - Timeout: Set the duration of inactivity after which a tab should close. - Supports Minutes, Hours, and Days. - History Limit: Set the maximum number of expired tabs to keep in history. - View Expired Tabs: Quick access button to open the full history page. - Protect Tab: Toggle protection for the currently active tab. Protected tabs (indicated by a 🔒 badge) will never be expired. --- History 📜 The options page provides a dashboard for your expired tabs: - Search: Filter history by Title or URL. Multiple terms are treated as "AND" conditions (e.g., "git issue" matches items containing both "git" and "issue"). - Copy URL: One-click button to copy the expired tab's URL to your clipboard. - Delete: Remove individual items from your history. - Clear History: Wipe all recorded history. --- Background Behavior 🧠 - The extension uses a background service worker to monitor tab activity. - It uses `chrome.alarms` to check for expired tabs every minute to minimize resource usage. - Pinned tabs and tabs playing audio are automatically protected and will not be closed.
