Features

• Open Tab on the Right: Create a new tab immediately to the right of your active tab, rather than at the far end of the tab strip.
• Move Tabs Left/Right: Effortlessly shift your current tab—or a block of multiple highlighted tabs—left or right.
• Smart Handling:
- New tabs intelligently inherit the properties of the active tab (e.g., pinned status or tab group).
- Tab wrapping is supported: moving a tab past the end wraps it to the beginning. Pinned and unpinned tabs wrap within their respective boundaries.
- Highlighted non-adjacent tabs are smartly consolidated when moving, mirroring Firefox's native drag behavior.
• Customizable Shortcuts: Configure your preferred key bindings directly in the extension's options page.

Privacy & Permissions

This extension does not collect or store any of your browsing data.

It requires the "Access your data for all websites" permission solely to ensure your keyboard shortcuts work reliably everywhere. Complex web apps like Google Docs can intercept and "swallow" keystrokes, breaking normal browser shortcuts. This extension bypasses that by listening for your configured keystrokes early to guarantee they always trigger.
