Focus Highlighter (Ilana build) by Eilit

Focus Highlighter helps you see where you are. It draws a clear, customizable ring around the focused element during keyboard navigation—and mirrors it on mouse hover. Designed to stay visible in Windows High Contrast (using forced-color-adjust: none) while remaining lightweight and respectful of site styling.

Key features

• Keyboard + Hover: same visual language for Tab/Shift+Tab and mouse hover.
• Two modes: Overlay (extension ring) or System Focus (OS outline only).
• Configurable style: color, ring thickness, corner radius; optional hover highlight.
• High-contrast friendly: preserves your chosen color even in Windows HC.
• Works across sites/frames: runs on most pages, including dynamic apps.

Keyboard shortcuts

• Toggle: Alt+Shift+H
• System Focus: Alt+Shift+S
• Colors: Alt+Shift+Y (Yellow), R (Red), T (Turquoise), B (Blue)
• Toggle Hover: Alt+Shift+O

Permissions used

• activeTab / tabs – update the current page’s highlight state.
• storage – remember your preferences (color, mode, ring style, hover on/off).
• menus – add a right-click menu for quick toggles.

If you want, I can also add a super-short (≤250 chars) alternative or a slightly more marketing-y version.
