Tab Sweeper

Tab Sweeper closes tabs whose URLs match patterns you set. It's meant for the small tabs that accumulate during the workday and serve no purpose once they've loaded — identity refresh pages, OAuth hand-offs, "you can close this window now" pages, and app-launch leftovers. How it works: • Add patterns using simple wildcards (e.g. https://.example.com/callback) or regular expressions. Patterns match the full URL, including query strings and #fragments. • When a tab's final URL matches, it's closed automatically. Tabs are only closed after the page settles, so redirect chains and login flows that merely pass through a matching URL are left alone. • Built-in patterns are included and can be toggled individually. • Options: pause everything with one switch, skip pinned tabs, or sweep currently open matching tabs on demand. Notes and limitations: • Patterns you write are matched literally — a broad pattern like google will close more than you expect. Anchor patterns to a domain and path where possible. • The extension needs the "tabs" permission to read tab URLs and close matches. It does not collect or transmit any data; patterns are stored in Chrome's sync storage so they follow your profile. • It never closes browser-internal pages (chrome:// and similar).
