# TikTok Video Parser Extension (Chrome)
A lightweight, open-source Chrome extension focused on parsing TikTok video pages
and forwarding video URLs to a web-based processing flow.
This project is designed with a minimal architecture and clear separation between
the browser extension and the web-based processing layer.

---
## 📖 Introduction
This Chrome extension helps users interact with TikTok video pages by extracting
video URLs and redirecting them to a dedicated web-based processing page.
The extension itself does **not** download or process media files locally.
All parsing and file generation are handled externally via a web interface.
The goal of this project is to demonstrate a clean, permission-minimized browser
extension architecture for handling video page parsing workflows.
---
## ✨ Features
- Parse TikTok video page URLs
- Open a new tab to a web-based processing page
- Minimal permissions and lightweight implementation
- Clear separation between extension logic and web processing
- No local storage of user data or browsing history
---
## 🚀 Installation
### Manual Installation (Developer Mode)
This extension can be installed locally for development or evaluation purposes:
1. Download this repository (Click **Code → Download ZIP**) and unzip it.
2. Open Chrome and navigate to `chrome://extensions/`
3. Enable **Developer mode** (top right)
4. Click **Load unpacked**
5. Select the unzipped project folder
6. The extension will appear in your browser toolbar
---
## 🛠 Usage
1. Open any TikTok video page in your browser.
2. You can start the parsing process in either of the following ways:
- Click the extension icon in the browser toolbar, or
- Click the parse button added by the extension directly on the TikTok video page.
3. The extension will automatically copy the video link and open a new tab:
https://grabclip.com/tiktok
4. The page will parse the video source and display a preview.
You can then choose to download:
- The highest available quality video (MP4, no watermark), or
- Audio only (MP3)
The extension serves as a convenient entry point from TikTok,
while the parsing and download process is handled on the website.
### Notes
- The extension only activates on TikTok video pages.
- No media files are downloaded or processed directly by the extension.
- All media-related operations occur on the external web page.
- The extension does not track or store personal data.
