In-depth safety analysis
This extension can access every website you visit because of the host permission and the scripting and webRequest API permissions it requests. Combined with the tabs permission, it can read page content, modify how sites behave, and monitor your browsing activity. That scope is more than what you might expect for a tool that prevents duplicate tabs; basic duplicate tab management usually does not need to read or alter content on all pages.
For any general browser utility, especially one that can see all your browsing, a careful user should consider that such access can also be misused by an extension that becomes compromised or changes hands. Since this category often includes free tools supported by advertising or data collection, it is wise to check the developer's privacy claims and verify they hold up over time.
Based on the fact sheet, the strongest dimension is Data & Privacy, meaning the developer's declared practices around data handling appear relatively clear. The weakest is Maintenance & Ownership, which suggests the extension may not be updated frequently or have strong signals of long-term developer support, so its reliability and safety could change with less notice.
AI-assisted analysis of the documented signals above (permissions, store data, privacy practices) — explains what they mean and the risks typical for this category. Not a hands-on test.
