Optional per-container settings: • Wipe cookies on tab close — kill the session the moment you close the tab. • Wipe site data on tab close — flush localStorage and cache for that origin. Useful for: research tabs, throwaway logins, work vs. personal separation, anything you don't want polluting your history or autocomplete. Permissions are used strictly locally: • history — to delete entries created in marked containers. • cookies / tabs / webNavigation — to detect container tabs and clear their data on close. • <all_urls> — required to act on any site opened in a marked container. The extension makes zero network requests.
