WorkGraph — John Arnott

WorkGraph automatically tracks your browsing activity and feeds it to the
WorkGraph desktop agent, giving you AI-powered productivity insights without
any manual logging.

HOW IT WORKS
• WorkGraph runs silently in the background as you browse.
• Tab changes, page visits, and navigation events are captured locally.
• All data is forwarded to the WorkGraph desktop agent over a local native
messaging channel — nothing leaves your machine.
• The desktop agent turns raw browser activity into structured work sessions
and insights.

PERMISSIONS EXPLAINED
• tabs / activeTab — needed to read the URL and title of the active tab.
• webNavigation — detects page loads and single-page app (SPA) navigations.
• history — captures browsing history events (can be disabled in Settings).
• storage — persists your settings and an offline queue of unsent events.
• nativeMessaging — communicates with the WorkGraph desktop agent installed
on your machine. This extension does nothing without the companion app.
• idle — detects when you step away to correctly end a work session.
• alarms — keeps the background service worker alive between events.
• host_permissions (<all_urls>) — required to inject the content script that
reads page headings and metadata on every site.

PRIVACY
• No data is sent to any remote server. Everything goes through the local
native messaging channel to the desktop agent running on your machine.
• Incognito / private browsing tabs are always skipped.
• Sensitive URL paths (/login, /account, /payment, /checkout, etc.) are
automatically dropped.
• You can pause tracking at any time via the extension popup.
• You can exclude specific domains in the Settings page.

REQUIREMENTS
• WorkGraph Desktop Agent must be installed and running on your machine
(macOS or Windows). The extension shows "Disconnected" without it.
• Firefox 128 or later.
