## Description

Context Command Executor is a Firefox add-on that enables you to define custom commands for execution from the context menu. Whether it's a link, audio, video, or image, you can easily right click and perform a command you have set. The addon utilizes a script called executor.py, installed by Firefox, which reads the input, parses it to JSON, and calls the specified command with its arguments. Simply configure the addon preferences and effortlessly execute commands with a few clicks.
