Permissions Explained

This extension requests the absolute minimum permissions required to function. Permissions may vary slightly depending on your browser (Manifest V2 vs V3), but the intent remains the same:

• activeTab (Firefox): Allows the extension to read the Title and Link of the current tab only when you explicitly interact with it (click the menu or shortcut). It does not run in the background.
• optional_host_permissions (Chrome/Edge): Allows the extension to read the Title and Link of the current tab only when you explicitly interact with it (click the menu or shortcut). It does not run in the background.
• contextMenus: Allows the extension to add "Title-Link Copy" to your right-click menu.
• storage: Used to save your preferences (like AP Casing or Text Placement options).
• scripting (Chrome/Edge): Required by modern browsers to execute the copy command and read selected text safely.
• clipboardWrite (Firefox): Required to programmatically write text to your system clipboard.

Usage Guide

The Output Formats

1. Standard Copy (Title + Link)

Formats the clipboard content on separate lines for easy pasting into plain text documents or chats:

The Page Title (AP Styled if enabled)
https://www.example.com/article
This is the specific text you selected on the page.

2. Hyperlink Copy (🌐)

Creates a dual-format clipboard entry suitable for any destination:

• Rich Text Editors (Word, Google Docs, Email): Pastes as a clickable, blue anchor link with the Title as the text.
  • Example: The Page Title
• Plain Text Editors (Notepad, Code): Falls back to the standard "Title \n Link" format automatically.
