Bookmarks API for Scripting and AI

An add-on for Firefox so local scripts and AI agents can manage your bookmarks while the browser is open. Not a sync engine. Not a Mozilla product. Not a way to remote-control the rest of the browser.

You issue a secret from the toolbar (Manage clients). The add-on keeps only a hash. Tools running on this computer — a local script, an editor agent, or a session you opened here (SSH, remote desktop) — call a loopback HTTP API with that secret.

Websites and in-browser agents (chatgpt.com and friends) cannot see that port. Pages inside Firefox are blocked too. If this Firefox profile syncs bookmarks with a Mozilla account, edits made here can show up on your other devices. Sync is Firefox’s feature; the API still only accepts connections on the machine running that Firefox.

What it asks for

bookmarks — the only WebExtension API it calls
storage — hashes of issued secrets, local only
nativeMessaging — the inbound path for those local tools

It does not request tabs, history, cookies, or access to the open web. Other add-ons cannot call it. Firefox will mention bookmark information at install because authorized local tools can read and change bookmarks. Nothing is sent to us.
