Features & Capabilities

Bookmark Sync (Gist) is a lightweight, privacy-first bookmark sync tool that uses your own GitHub Gist as the sync backend — no third-party servers, no accounts beyond GitHub.

How It Works

Your bookmarks are stored in a private GitHub Gist under your own account. Upload bookmarks from one browser, download them in another. You retain full ownership of your data at all times.

Key Features

Upload & Download — Push bookmarks from one browser, pull them to another. Cross-browser sync between Chrome, Firefox, and Edge.
Conflict Detection — The extension detects when local bookmarks already exist and asks before overwriting them, preventing accidental data loss.
Change Indicator — A badge appears on the extension icon whenever local bookmarks are modified, reminding you to sync.
Notification Support — Get notified when sync operations succeed or fail (can be disabled in settings).
Private by Design — Your bookmark data lives entirely in your personal GitHub Gist. Nothing is sent to or stored on any third-party server.

Is Bookmark Sync (Gist) Safe?

Risk impact

Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

Bookmark Sync (Gist) requires a few sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.

Risk likelihood

Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Firefox add-on may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Firefox add-on reputation on Firefox Add-ons Store, the amount of time the Firefox add-on has been around, and other signals about the Firefox add-on. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Firefox add-on.

Bookmark Sync (Gist) is recently added, and hasn't been around long enough for us to gather enough data to accurately assess its risk level.
