Capture downloads and links directly to Firelink download manager.

Features & Capabilities

Firelink Browser Extension is the official companion to the Firelink macOS download manager. It bridges the gap between your browser and your desktop, allowing you to seamlessly hand off downloads to Firelink for faster, more organized file management.

Key Features:

  • Automatic Interception: Toggle "Global Capture" to automatically forward all your browser downloads straight to the Firelink desktop app.
  • Context Menu Integration: Right-click on any link or image and choose "Download with Firelink" to send it to the manager instantly.
  • Smart Selection: Highlight a block of text, right-click, and select "Download selected with Firelink" to automatically extract and send all links within the selection.
  • Site Exclusions: Easily disable download interception on specific websites directly from the extension popup.
  • Light & Dark Mode: A beautiful, responsive popup UI that respects your system theme.

⚠ Important Requirement: This extension does not function independently. It requires the Firelink application to be installed and running on your computer. The extension communicates securely with the local Firelink app to process your downloads.

Privacy First: We respect your privacy. This extension does not collect, store, or transmit any personal data or browsing history to remote servers. All link processing happens entirely on your local machine.

Is Firelink Companion 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.

Firelink Companion requires some sensitive permissions that could impact your browser and data security. Exercise caution before installing.

Risk impact analysis details

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.

Firelink Companion is recently added, and hasn't been around long enough for us to gather enough data to accurately assess its risk level.
