Features & Capabilities

Local Header Modifier lets you change HTTP request and response headers in Chrome for development and debugging — without sending your configuration or browsing data to a third-party service.

Use it to: • Add or override Authorization and custom headers • Switch locales, regions, and feature flags • Test CORS, edge cases, and API behavior • Remove headers when you need a clean request

Features: • Modify request and response headers (set or remove) • URL filters so rules only apply where you want • Multiple profiles for different projects • Optional comments on each rule • One-click pause for all modifications • Data stored on your device only — no analytics, no remote accounts, no phone-home

Privacy: This extension does not collect, transmit, or sell your data. Header rules stay in Chrome’s local storage on your computer. There are no tracking scripts and no external servers operated by us.

Perfect for developers who want ModHeader-style control with a privacy-first, auditable extension.

Is Local Header Modifier 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.

Local Header Modifier requires a few sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.

Risk impact analysis details

Critical Allows access to all websites, posing a significant security risk as it can monitor and modify data from any visited site.

Risk likelihood

Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Chrome extension may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Chrome extension reputation on Chrome Web Store, the amount of time the Chrome extension has been around, and other signals about the Chrome extension. 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 Chrome extension.

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