## Description

Lightweight tool for exporting tab titles and URLs to the clipboard and restoring sessions from pasted URL lists. Copy tab titles and URLs from the active window, selected tabs, or all windows, with options to include or exclude pinned tabs. Pasting any text opens every valid link as a new tab, either in the current window or in newly created windows.

Links can be copied in plain text, AsciiDoc, LaTeX, Markdown, MediaWiki, Org mode, reStructuredText, and Textile. When pasting text, the tool extracts URLs from many markup formats and can recreate multiple windows based on section headers in the markup.

Useful for archiving and restoring research sessions, saving link collections in notes, or sharing tabs in messages. The extension runs locally, collects no data, uses no network access, and interacts with your tabs and clipboard only when you explicitly trigger an action from the tab context menu.
