PaneMind

PaneMind turns Chrome's New Tab page into a local-first workspace for tabs and windows. View tabs across multiple Chrome windows in one place. Search, switch to, mute, sleep, close, and recover tabs while preserving Chrome states such as pinned tabs and native tab groups. Organize and revisit: • Save a whole window or an individual tab for later • Keep frequently used sites in Quick Access • View and restore recently closed tabs • Give windows local names • Export or import PaneMind data on this device Optional tools: • Usage time is off by default. When enabled, it records only normalized website hostnames and daily foreground duration for the active tab in the frontmost Chrome window. Time is not counted while Chrome is not in front, the device is locked, or the configured idle threshold has been reached. It does not read page content, URL paths, page titles, media content, or website categories. • Split browsing shows tabs from Chrome windows in the side panel and opens a selected page in the current Split preview tab without moving or copying the source tab. • Visible-area Screenshot is triggered only by the user for the current Split preview page. PaneMind captures only the visible webpage area, keeps the preview in memory, and creates a local file only after the user selects Save PNG. Screenshots are not uploaded. Privacy: PaneMind requires no account and includes no ads, analytics, telemetry, or backend service. Extension data remains in the current Chrome profile and is not sold, shared, or sent to the developer or third parties. Usage time, most-visited sites, and screenshot access are requested separately when needed and can be denied or revoked. Requires Chrome 142 or later.
