  WHY USE FUSE:
  Too many open tabs slow you down and clutter your thinking. Fuse solves this by letting you set a countdown timer on any tab group or individual tab — when time runs out, the tabs close automatically.
  
  
  HOW TO USE FUSE:
  Arm a timer before a research session, a quick browse, or any temporary workflow. Fuse runs quietly in the background and handles the cleanup for you, so you can stay focused on what matters.
  
  
  WHAT YOU CAN DO WITH FUSE:
  - Set timers on tab groups or individual tabs
  - Choose from preset durations or enter a custom time
  - Customise your presets in Settings so your most-used durations are always one click away
  - Watch a live countdown for every armed tab or group
  - Disarm any timer instantly if your plans change
  
  
  Built on Chrome's native alarm API, timers fire reliably even when the browser is minimised or the popup is closed. No background tracking, no external servers — everything stays on your device.
  
  
  RELEASE NOTES - v1.0.2
  - Added release notes — shown once on your first popup open after each update
