## Detailed description

```
Drowning in tabs? ATO (Advanced Tab Organizer) finds and closes duplicate tabs in one click, and gives you a fast, keyboard-driven popup to search, group, and tidy everything you have open — without sending a single byte off your device.

Open it with Cmd+U (Mac) or Ctrl+U (Windows/Linux), or click the toolbar icon. The badge always shows how many duplicates you have, so you know at a glance when it's time to clean up.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
WHAT IT DOES
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

• Duplicate detection — Spots duplicate tabs automatically and shows the count on the toolbar badge in real time.

• One-click cleanup — Close every duplicate at once, keeping the tab you want (oldest or newest). Your active tab is never closed.

• Powerful search — Filter tabs by title, URL, or domain with full keyboard navigation and match highlighting. Three modes:
   – Fuzzy (default): forgiving, typo-tolerant matching
   – Exact whole-word: wrap a query in quotes, e.g. "burger"
   – Wildcard substring: add an asterisk, e.g. hack* — matches the literal text anywhere

• Playing media — Tabs making sound float to a section at the top and get a speaker icon wherever they appear, so you can find that noisy tab instantly.

• Domain groups — See your tabs grouped by site, sortable A–Z, by most tabs, or by most recent. Merge or close every tab from a domain in one move.

• Undo — Accidentally closed something? Restore the tabs you just closed.

• Real-time updates — The badge and popup react as you browse.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
MAKE IT YOURS
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

A full options page lets you tune ATO to your workflow:
• Light / dark theme and a choice of bundled fonts
• How duplicates are matched (exact URL, or ignore query string and/or hash)
• Which tab to keep when closing duplicates
• Protect pinned tabs and tab groups from being closed
• Badge behavior — show duplicate count or total tab count, custom color, or hide it
• Scope detection to the current window only

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
PRIVATE BY DESIGN
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

ATO runs entirely in your browser. It makes no network requests, has no analytics or trackers, and never collects, transmits, or sells your data. Your tabs and settings stay on your device (settings sync only through your own Chrome account, if you have sync enabled).

Built with vanilla JavaScript for a tiny footprint and fast load times. Open source — review the code or contribute at:
