Nimbus Web Clipper Firefox

Nimbus Web Clipper

Clip articles and selections from the browser into your local-first Nimbus index.

Features & Capabilities

Nimbus Web Clipper saves the readable article or your text selection into your private, local-first Nimbus index — searchable alongside your Drive files, email, and bookmarks. Everything stays on your machine: loopback-only, no telemetry, no cloud.

An on-demand panel surfaces related things already in your index, without leaving the tab. Pairing is owner-consented: you run "nimbus clip pair" on the machine running the gateway, then enter the printed one-time 6-digit code in the extension's options page to mint a bearer token. The token is the only secret the extension holds; it lives in extension storage and is revocable with "nimbus clip revoke".

Features:

  • Clip an article — extract the readable content of the current page.
  • Clip a selection — highlight text and clip just that, with optional tags.
  • Related items — an on-demand panel of related items already in your index.
  • Offline retry queue — clips made while the gateway is down are saved and retried automatically.

Requires a running Nimbus gateway with the web-clipper surface. See https://nimbus-agent.dev/user-guide/install/.

Is Nimbus Web Clipper 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.

Nimbus Web Clipper requires very minimum permissions.

Risk impact analysis details
  • Low Request access to the following domains: 0.1, localhost
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.

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