TabSync CLI\n\n**TabSync CLI** lets you instantly share open browser tabs between your desktop and mobile — all over your local Wi-Fi, without the cloud.  \nRun it as a simple CLI, scan a QR code, and you’re synced.\n\n####  Install the extension, as the cli relies on Chrome/Edge [extension](https://github.com/jayantur13/tabsync-extension) to communicate data\n\n---\n\n## Quick Start\n\n```bash\n# Install globally (recommended)\nnpm install -g tabsync-cli\n\n# Start the local server\ntabsync\n```\nOnce started, the CLI will:\n- Detect your local IP address\n- Launch a lightweight Express + WebSocket server\n- Show a QR code — scan it on your mobile to open the TabSync page\n\n---\n\n## What It Does\n\n- The server (server.js) keeps track of all connected devices and their open tabs.\n- Each device (desktop or mobile) connects via WebSocket and automatically syncs tab URLs.\n- When a device goes offline for more than 5 minutes, it’s cleaned up automatically and disappears from the screen (no refresh needed).\n- You can also add URLs manually using the input box on the web page.\n\n---\n\n## CLI Options\n\n```bash\ntabsync [options]\n\nOptions:\n  --no-qr        Skip showing the QR code\n  --help         Show help info\n```\nExample:\n```bash\ntabsync --no-qr\n```\n\n---\n\n## Web Interface\n\nOpen your browser at:\n```bash\nhttp://\u003cyour-local-ip\u003e:3210\n```\nYou’ll see:\n\n- A list of devices connected to your TabSync session\n- Their open tabs as clickable links\n- A field to add new URLs to sync instantly\n\nThe UI updates in real time whenever devices connect, disconnect, or share new tabs.\n\n---\n\n## How It Works\n\n- server.js → Express + WebSocket server handling connections and sync\n- index.html → Frontend UI that receives live updates and renders devices/tabs\n- CLI script → Spawns the server, detects IP, and shows QR code for easy connection\n\n---\n\n## Auto Cleanup\n\nInactive devices (no activity for 5 minutes) are automatically removed, and all clients update instantly — no refresh required.\n\n## Stop the Server\n\nPress Ctrl + C in the terminal to shut it down gracefully.\n\n---\n\n## Changelog\n\nFor all the important
