Request Assistant Firefox

Request Assistant

By: Reşat
Currently logs all URLs accessed by the app (into app console & into standard output stream (using dump()), whether the request is explicitly made by the user or automatically made by the app itself.

Features & Capabilities

Currently, logging is performed into app console & into standard out stream (using dump()).

On Windows, you might want to use one of the following approaches (e.g., using Firefox Developer Edition):

  1. "C:\Program Files\Firefox\firefox.exe" > "C:\Users\you\f.log" &:: pipe to a file And then tail it (e.g., using Cygwin): tail -f "C:\Users\you\f.log" OR
  2. "C:\Program Files\Firefox\firefox.exe" -console
[1] To see dump() output on Windows with -console argument (approach 2. above), browser.dom.window.dump.enabled pref needs to be set to true (manually, since Mozilla no longer allows extensions to change apps' preferences): https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Window/dump

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.

Request Assistant requires a few sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.
