About this extension
When your open-tab count crosses the threshold you set, SwiperTab opens with a one-button prompt. Click it, and your tabs are dealt to you as a stack of visual cards — favicon, screenshot, title, last-seen-active. Swipe each one to decide its fate. If you prefer the keyboard, arrow keys mirror swipes, spaces skips (moves to the end of stack), U undoes.

Flow:
- Swipe right to keep
- Swipe left to close
- Swipe up to keep every tab from that domain
- Swipe down to close every tab from that domain
- Undo brings closed tabs straight back
- Switch jumps to any tab without leaving the queue

Flexibility:
- Set your own threshold — 5, 20, 100, whatever your tolerance is.
- Per-domain whitelist keeps your email, calendar, banking and similar out of the queue.
- Bump lifts the threshold temporarily when you're deep in research.
- Snooze when now isn't the time.
- Per-domain screenshot skips for sites you'd rather not cache visually.

Your data stays on your machine. SwiperTab has no servers, no analytics, no third parties. Tab metadata and screenshots live only in your browser's local storage and are pruned automatically after 20 days.
