Angel Shot: For a quick escape

About

Instantly leave any page, hide your tracks, and keep yourself safe.
Quick Escape adds a discreet panic‑button and keyboard shortcut that:

Replaces the current page with a site of your choice (default: Weather.com).

Deletes the past hour of local traces – history entries, cookies, cache, download records, form fills.

Operates in place whenever possible, so no one sees a tab close and reopen.

Falls back to a new tab + automatic close if the current page blocks injection (e.g., chrome:// pages), ensuring the escape always works.

How to use
Keyboard shortcut: <kbd>Ctrl + Shift + X</kbd> (or <kbd>⌘ + ⇧ + X</kbd> on macOS).

Toolbar icon: Click the lifebuoy when you need to vanish.

Custom “safe” site: Open Extensions → Quick Escape → Options and enter any URL (news, calendar, email, corporate intranet, …).

Designed for real‑world scenarios
Domestic‑violence safety – hide support resources instantly if an abuser enters the room.

Shared computers & kiosks – remove sensitive cookies and autofill data in one step.

Respectful of your privacy
No analytics, no ads, no data collection.

All processing happens locally. The extension never sends your browsing data anywhere.
