In-depth safety analysis
This extension requests only the tabs permission. In practice, this allows it to see the URLs of pages you have open and potentially inject code or styles into those pages. For a broken-link and error checker, that level of access is expected—it needs to read page content to detect missing resources and server errors like 404s.
General browser extensions in this category can have broad page-reading capabilities, so it is wise to remain cautious. Be aware that any tool able to scan all your open tabs could technically observe what you browse. For link checkers, an additional consideration is that duplicate or malicious lookalike extensions sometimes appear in stores, aiming to exploit the trust users place in utility tools.
Based on the documented data, the strongest safety dimension for this extension is Data & Privacy, where the developer's stated collection of website content aligns with the tool's function and declared commitments. The weakest dimension is Maintenance & Ownership, which suggests a lower score for factors like publisher transparency or update frequency, and is something a careful user may note when deciding whether to install.
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.
