About Request Editor
**Detailed Description:**
Take full control of your network traffic with **Request Editor**. This powerful extension allows developers and security researchers to intercept outgoing HTTP requests directly within the browser.
Whether you are testing API endpoints, debugging web applications, or performing security analysis, **Request Editor** provides the granular control you need to manipulate data before it reaches the server.
**Key Features:**
* **Real-time Interception:** Pause outgoing requests and inspect them before they are sent.
* **Full Request Modification:** Modify URLs, HTTP methods, headers, and request bodies with ease.
* **Global Headers:** Set custom headers that are automatically applied to every request, perfect for testing authentication or authorization flows.
* **Workflow Automation:** Quickly "Forward" or "Drop" individual requests, or use bulk actions to manage high-traffic sessions.
* **cURL Export:** Generate and copy cURL commands for any request with a single click, allowing you to reproduce issues in your terminal instantly.
* **Clean UI:** A modern, dark-themed interface designed for efficient debugging.
**How it works:**
1. Click the **Request Editor** icon in your toolbar while on the target page.
2. Enable interception to attach the debugger to your current tab.
3. View live requests as they happen.
4. Edit the desired request parameters and forward the modified request to the server.

*Note: This extension requires the `debugger` permission to intercept and modify network traffic.*
