Features & Capabilities

Tab Shortcuts

Shows the tab shortcut number in each tab title, like ⌘1, ⌘2, etc.

What it does

Prefixes each tab title with its shortcut number.
Matches Firefox's shortcut order and skips collapsed tab groups.
Updates automatically when tabs move, open, or close.

Limitations

Firefox maps 1 through 8 to the first eight tabs, and 9 to the last tab. If there are more than 9 tabs, the middle tabs won't show a number.
Internal pages (about:*, moz-extension:*, etc.) cannot be modified, so no shortcut number is shown there.
On non-macOS platforms the prefix uses # instead of ⌘.
Only tested on MacOs for the moment.

Permissions

tabs: read the tab order and listen for tab changes.
tabGroups: detect collapsed tab groups so they don't count.
<all_urls>: inject the content script to update tab titles on web pages.

AI Use transparency disclaimer

Most of this extension was developped by GPT-5.2 Codex using Cursor. Except for a few tweaks and this readme, I only reviewed the code.

This add‑on does not collect, transmit, or sell personal data. It only reads tab metadata needed to calculate the shortcut index and updates tab titles locally in your browser. No data is stored and no external network requests are made.

Is Tab Shortcuts 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.

Tab Shortcuts requires some sensitive permissions that could impact your browser and data security. Exercise caution before installing.

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.

Tab Shortcuts is probably trust-worthy. Prefer other publishers if available. Exercise caution when installing this add-on.
