So part of the fun I had with this was to use ChatGPT to write a lot of the code. I didn't test it a ton, but it does work for the several attempts I used and I didn't want to spend forever working on it. Honestly getting the javascript working in a browser extension was the hardest part, given all the nuances of the different browsers.
I used the Manifeset v3 standard and I tested it in Firefox and Brave, so I assume it should work in most other Chromium-based browsers.
Feedback and contributions are welcome. Please open an issue on the GitHub repository if you have any suggestions or find any bugs. Zero guarantees as to if I have time to work on it. :)
