About Amazon Rufus Blocker

Tired of Amazon's Rufus AI chatbot eating up 600 pixels of your screen every time you load a page? Amazon Rufus Blocker removes the docked Rufus panel and gives you your full browser width back, instantly. No more AI chatbot taking up a third of your screen. No more forced conversations with a shopping assistant you never asked for. Just Amazon, the way it used to be. What it does: Reclaims the screen space that Rufus reserves by resetting the forced body padding Amazon injects on every page load. The Rufus panel is moved off screen so it never renders visually, but your cart still works. Clicking the cart icon in the nav bar slides out a clean cart panel with your items, subtotal, and checkout link. Click outside the panel, press Escape, or click the cart icon again to close it. Ctrl or Cmd clicking the cart icon navigates to the full cart page as usual. Works across all Amazon domains including .com, .co.uk, .ca, .de, .fr, .it, .es, .co.jp, .com.au, .in, and .com.br. Lightweight and privacy friendly. No data collection, no analytics, no remote code, no network requests. Everything runs locally as a content script with a CSS stylesheet injected at document load. The extension only activates on Amazon pages and does absolutely nothing anywhere else. Open source and free forever.
