breadcrumbus

Break addresses of active tabs into navigable breadcrumbs: clicking the add-on icon or using the shortkey CTRL + , (comma) opens up a panel that contains the addresses of active tabs, broken into individually navigable pieces.

Breadcrumbus is a Chrome extension that transforms the addresses of your active tabs into easily navigable breadcrumbs. By breaking down the URL into segments such as host, path, search, and hash components, it provides clickable links that let you quickly navigate to parent directories or sections of the website. For example, a URL like https://blog.mozilla.org/blog/2017/06/13/faster-better-firefox is parsed into breadcrumbs like blog.mozilla.org, blog, 2017, 06, 13, and faster-better-firefox — clicking any of these navigates the tab accordingly.

You can open the breadcrumb panel by clicking the extension’s icon or by using the shortcut CTRL + ,. The appearance is customizable, allowing you to display breadcrumbs horizontally, vertically, or in both styles. Breadcrumbus enhances tab navigation efficiency by giving you instant access to intermediate URL paths through a clean and intuitive interface.

Extension safety

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.

breadcrumbus requires a few sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.
