## Description

Feed Point

Feed Point is a lightweight Firefox browser extension that automatically detects and extracts RSS, Atom, and JSON feeds from any website you visit.

How It Works

The extension operates entirely locally within your browser using Manifest V3 mechanics:
<ol><li><strong>Passive Head Scanning:</strong> Whenever a page loads, a content script reads the document's <code>&lt;head&gt;</code> to detect standard standardly declared feed links (e.g., <code>&lt;link rel="alternate" type="application/rss+xml"&gt;</code>).</li><li><strong>Aggressive Body Scanning:</strong> It simultaneously scans all <code>&lt;a&gt;</code> anchor tags within the webpage body to find hidden or dynamically added feeds. It matches common extensions (<code>.xml</code>, <code>.rss</code>, <code>.atom</code>) or URL path formats (<code>/feed/</code>) while applying strict filters to ignore common false-positives like <code>sitemap.xml</code> or "Feedback" buttons.</li><li><strong>Cache &amp; Deduplication:</strong> Feeds are normalized, deduplicated, and cached locally in the background script per individual browser tab.</li><li><strong>User Interface:</strong> When the extension icon is clicked, a popup retrieves the cached feed data for the active tab and renders a responsive list. Users can effortlessly copy feed URLs to their clipboard or open them in a new tab. </li></ol>
