## Description

Import URLs (as Bookmarks or Tabs) extracts links from any text or the clipboard and quickly opens them as browser tabs or saves them as bookmarks. Paste text or load a file, optionally provide a regular expression to fine-tune URL extraction, choose a bookmark folder, and control tab loading behavior for bulk opening.

The extension uses only the storage permission to remember your extraction regex and requests bookmarks permission only when you import URLs as bookmarks. Click the toolbar button to open the importer, paste or load text, and import — ideal for developers, researchers, and power users who need to batch-open links or convert lists into organized bookmarks.
