Open `chrome://extensions`, `edge://extensions`, `brave://extensions`, or `helium://extensions`.\n2. Enable developer mode.\n3. Choose **Load unpacked**.\n4. Select this project directory.\n5. Open **Keyboard shortcuts** and check the assigned shortcuts.\n\nSuggested shortcuts:\n\n- **Open alt-tab-style popup**: `Alt+Q` / `Option+Q`\n- **Search in alt-tab-style popup**: `Alt+W` / `Option+W`\n- **Switch to previous tab**: `Alt+Z` / `Option+Z`\n\nOn macOS, Chromium's shortcut recorder may capture `Option+Q` as a special\ncharacter. If that happens, remove and reload the unpacked extension so the\nmanifest default can be applied, or use a different shortcut while testing.\n\n## Usage\n\nCycle mode:\n\n1. Hold the launcher modifier and press the popup shortcut.\n2. Press `Q` to move down.\n3. Press `Shift+Q` to move up.\n4. Release the modifier to switch to the selected tab.\n\nSearch mode:\n\n1. Open the search popup.\n2. Type part of a tab title or URL.\n3. Use arrow keys, `Ctrl+N/J`, or `Ctrl+P/K` to move.\n4. Press `Enter` to switch.\n\n## Options\n\nOpen the extension options page to configure:\n\n- Popup width and height.\n- Accent color.\n- Whether results are limited to the current browser window.\n- Whether pinned tabs are hidden.\n- Whether the last search query is restored.\n\n## Website\n\nThe static landing page is in `site/`. Open `site/index.html` directly, or\nserve it with:\n\n```sh\npython3 -m http.server 4173 --directory site\n```\n\nA store-ready `1280x800` promotional artwork export is kept in `store-assets/`.\n\n## Privacy\n\nThe extension uses the `tabs` permission to read open tab titles, URLs, favicons,\nand window IDs so it can search and switch between tabs. MRU order and settings\nare stored locally in `chrome.storage.local`. The extension does not transmit\ntab data to any server.\n\n## License\n\nApache-2.0.
