Features an advanced cryptographic challenge-response recovery protocol utilizing ECDSA P-256 device keypairs for seamless, secure offline recovery. 👁️ Instant Privacy Control: Lock your session manually with a single click from the extension popup whenever you step away. 🌙 Dark/Light Mode Web Switcher: Conveniently toggle high-contrast display modes across active browsing tabs directly from your extension menu. How It Works 1. Set Up: Create a secure master password during initial installation. 2. Lock: BrowserProfileLock instantly hides open tabs behind a secure authentication screen (`lock.html`) upon browser restart, system idle timeout, or manual lock triggers. 3. Unlock: Enter your master password or use the secure offline reset wizard if recovery is needed. Privacy & Permissions Local-First Architecture: All critical encryption hashes and cryptographic keys are stored securely using local storage (chrome.storage.local). Minimal Permissions: Uses only the permissions required to deliver secure tab redirection, session monitoring, and idle detection (`storage, tabs, webNavigation, idle, scripting).
