  description

  Ghost Tabs is a lightweight browsing memory that automatically saves the context of closed tabs. Instead of keeping hundreds of tabs open, you can close them and trust that Ghost Tabs will preserve what mattered.
  
  What it captures on close:
  - URL, title, and favicon
  - Timestamp and scroll position
  - Highlights you selected and snippets you copied
  
  Why it feels better than bookmarks:
  - Closing a tab becomes the save action
  - Search by title, domain, or your own highlighted text
  - Restore with a single click and jump back to the right place
  
  Privacy-first:
  - Everything stays local in your browser
  - No accounts, no sync, no backend
