  description

  This extension captures currently playing track information from music.yandex.ru using Media Session API and sends it to a local companion application running on the user's machine.
  
  It extracts:
  - Artist name
  - Track title
  - Album
  - Artwork
  - Duration
  
  The data is sent exclusively to http://127.0.0.1 (localhost) where a desktop application processes it (e.g., for Last.fm scrobbling).
  
  Key features:
  - Reliable Media Session tracking
  - Works with modern Yandex Music UI
  - No external servers involved
  - No data collection or tracking
  - Fully local communication
  
  Important:
  This extension requires a local desktop companion app to function. Without it, the extension does nothing.
  
  Privacy:
  No user data is transmitted to any remote servers. All communication happens locally on the user's device.

  ## Key features
  
  - Reliable track detection using the Media Session API
  - Works with the modern Yandex Music interface
  - Instant, automatic scrobbling
  - Optional desktop companion for enhanced delivery
