<strong>Key Features:</strong>

  • <strong>Startup Automation</strong> - Set groups to launch when Firefox opens, perfect for morning work routines
  • <strong>Multiple Workspaces</strong> - Create separate groups for Work, Gaming, Research, Study, or any context you need
  • <strong>Script Library</strong> - Pre-built examples for common tasks like YouTube login, cookie consent, and form filling
  • <strong>Import/Export</strong> - Backup and restore all your configurations as JSON

<strong>Use Cases:</strong>

Launch your entire workday setup: email, project management, Slack, analytics dashboards—all opened and logged in
  automatically. Create gaming sessions with Twitch, Discord, and Steam. Build research workspaces with multiple
  documentation sites.

<strong>Privacy &amp; Security:</strong>

All data stored locally in Firefox. No external servers. No data collection. Scripts only run on pages you configure.
