## Description

Air Traffic automatically routes URLs to specific Firefox containers based on rules you define.

<strong>How it works:</strong>
  - Create rules using domain matching, URL patterns, wildcards, or regex
  - Each rule maps URLs to a specific container
  - When you navigate to a matching URL, it automatically reopens in the correct container

<strong>Features:</strong>
  - Multiple match types: domain, domain contains, starts with, contains, wildcard, regex
  - Drag-and-drop rule priority ordering
  - Two routing modes: route matched URLs only, or route all URLs with a default container
  - Import/export rules as JSON for backup and sharing
  - Full container management (create, edit, delete) from the options page
  - Context menu integration for quick container assignment
  - Sync storage support across Firefox instances
  - Works with Zen Browser workspaces

<strong>Privacy:</strong> Air Traffic runs entirely locally. No data is collected, transmitted, or shared with any server.
