VIP Tabs (Chrome Extension)

Automatically moves tabs whose URL matches a configured prefix to the leftmost position based on relative priority.

Configure

Edit background.js and change TARGET_URLS to include the URL prefixes you want. Example:

const PRIORITY_PREFIXES = [
  "https://mail.google.com/",
  "https://calendar.google.com/",
  // Add more prefixes here, in order
];

Install (Developer Mode)

1. Download and unzip the archive.
2. Open Chrome and go to chrome://extensions.
3. Toggle Developer mode on (top right).
4. Click Load unpacked and select the unzipped folder.

Notes

• Works with Manifest V3 using a background service worker.
• Requires tabs permission and <all_urls> host permissions to detect matches.
• Moves the tab only within its current window.
