Description

Permission Sentinel helps you understand what your Chrome extensions can actually do by translating technical permissions into plain English with intelligent risk scoring. πŸ” WHAT IT DOES: β€’ Analyzes all your installed extensions and shows their permissions in simple language β€’ Provides risk scores (Low/Medium/High/Dangerous) based on permission combinations β€’ Shows a warning banner on Chrome Web Store before you install risky extensions β€’ Identifies legitimate extensions (like uBlock Origin, password managers) that need high permissions πŸ›‘οΈ KEY FEATURES: β€’ Smart risk assessment with context-aware scoring β€’ Detects dangerous permission combinations (e.g., cookies + browsing history + network access) β€’ Identifies behavioral red flags (clipboard access, screenshot capture, keypress monitoring) β€’ Dark mode support with automatic theme detection β€’ Zero external dependencies - all analysis happens locally βœ… PRIVACY FIRST: β€’ No data collection or tracking β€’ No external API calls β€’ Works completely offline β€’ Open source on GitHub 🎯 WHO NEEDS THIS: β€’ Anyone concerned about browser security and privacy β€’ Users who want to understand what extensions can access β€’ People tired of "scary permission warnings" without context β€’ Security-conscious individuals protecting sensitive data Permission Sentinel makes it easy to make informed decisions about which extensions to trust.
