HTML -> Markdown Clipboard Firefox

HTML -> Markdown Clipboard

By: CK Add-on
Convert HTML already sitting on your clipboard to clean Markdown with one click — inline code becomes backticks, plus bold, italics, links, lists, tables and fenced code. Also copies links, images and page selections as Markdown.

Features & Capabilities

Markdown Clipboard turns rich text into Markdown without a round-trip through a web app.

Convert the clipboard (toolbar icon): copy formatted text from anywhere — a chat app, a docs editor, a web page — then click the toolbar icon. The extension reads the HTML flavor of your clipboard, converts it to Markdown, and writes the Markdown back as the plain-text flavor while preserving the original HTML flavor, so pasting into rich-text targets still works. A small icon animation confirms success (green check), tells you there was no HTML to convert (amber dash), or reports an error (red cross).

Copy as Markdown (right-click): right-click a link, image, or selection to copy it as Markdown. Supports GitHub-flavored tables, task lists, strikethrough, fenced code blocks with language detection, and MathML → LaTeX.

Optional keyboard shortcuts: both actions are available as commands but ship without default key bindings (so nothing clobbers your existing shortcuts). Assign your own under Manage Extension Shortcuts if you want them.

Everything runs locally in your browser. No accounts, no servers, no tracking — see the privacy policy.

Is HTML -> Markdown Clipboard 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.

HTML -> Markdown Clipboard requires very minimum permissions.

Risk impact analysis details
  • High Allows reading and modifying clipboard content, which can be sensitive, posing a moderate privacy risk.
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.

HTML -> Markdown Clipboard is recently added, and hasn't been around long enough for us to gather enough data to accurately assess its risk level.
