WebTransport Inspector Firefox

WebTransport Inspector

By: moqtap
DevTools extension for inspecting WebTransport connections and MoQT protocol traffic

Features & Capabilities

Inspect WebTransport connections and MoQT protocol traffic right from Chrome DevTools.

moqtap adds a new panel to DevTools that gives you full visibility into WebTransport sessions — whether you're debugging a media pipeline or working on MoQT protocol implementations.

What it does:

  • Captures all WebTransport connections on a page, including those created inside Web Workers (essential for WebCodecs and MediaSession workflows)
  • Auto-detects the MoQT protocol and draft version directly from wire bytes — no configuration needed
  • Decodes MoQT control messages with full field display, so you can see subscribe requests, track info, and errors as they happen
  • Tracks active subscriptions with namespace and track name resolution
  • Shows live bitrate for each session, so you can monitor throughput at a glance
  • Includes a stream data viewer with hex and JSON modes for inspecting raw payloads
  • Detects content types automatically — fMP4 video segments, JSON control data, and raw binary
  • Adds filtering and grouping tools for tracks and streams, including namespace grouping, active-only view, and TX/RX direction filters
  • Lets you pause stream payload recording without losing control messages or track lifecycle visibility
  • Captures stack traces for outgoing control messages and unidirectional stream creation, with clickable source links in DevTools
  • Lets you export and import .moqtrace files to share debug sessions with your team
Works with:
  • MoQT drafts 07 through 17 (auto-detected)
  • Plain WebTransport connections (non-MoQT) are displayed gracefully
  • WebTransport in Web Workers and SharedWorkers
  • High-throughput video streaming sessions (tested at 40+ Mbps)
Built for developers working with WebTransport and Media over QUIC Transport. Lightweight, non-intrusive, and designed to stay out of your way on sites that don't use WebTransport.

Is WebTransport Inspector 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.

WebTransport Inspector requires a few sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.

Risk impact analysis details
  • Critical Allows access to all websites, posing a significant security risk as it can monitor and modify data from any visited site.
  • High ******* ******* **** *** ****** ***** *** ***** ** ******* **** ********* ********* ** * *********** *****
  • Medium ****** ** ********* ****** ********* *** **** ****** **** **** ** ******* ** ********** **** ***********
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.

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

Risk likelihood analysis details
  • High This extension has low user count. Unpopular extensions may not be stable or safe.
  • Medium **** ********* *** ******* ** *** **** * ******* *** ******* *** *** ** ****** ** *****
  • Medium **** ********* *** ***** ** *** **** * ******* *** ********** *** *** ** ****** ** *****
