  **Detailed Description**
  
  Chrome Tab Topic Grouper helps organize busy browser windows by grouping tabs into topic-based Chrome tab groups.
  
  Use the extension popup to group the current window on demand, ungroup existing tab groups, or enable auto-grouping. Tabs are matched by title, URL, and host name, using built-in starter topics or your own custom topic configuration.
  
  Features:
  - Groups tabs only in the active Chrome window
  - Skips pinned tabs
  - Creates Chrome tab groups with readable topic names
  - Reuses existing matching tab groups
  - Supports custom topics, keywords, hosts, and group colors
  - Includes built-in topics for Code, Cloud, Workflows, and Chat
  - Saves preferences with Chrome sync storage
  - Exports topic configuration as JSON
  - Runs locally with no external services
  
  Good for developers, project managers, researchers, and anyone who keeps many related tabs open at once.

  Changelog
  
  v0.7 - 2026-05-28
  
  - Topics can now be exported and imported from the configuration page.
  - Imported topics can replace the current setup or merge into it before saving.
  - Grouping now cleans up duplicate same-named Chrome tab groups before regrouping, so tabs should not get stuck in stale duplicate groups.
  - Popup and configuration controls are easier to read, with better-centered add/remove icons.
  - Extension icons now use transparent backgrounds.
  - Version updated to 0.7.
  - Tiny joke: the duplicate tab groups were asked to form a line, but they kept making groups.
  
  v0.6 - 2026-05-21
  
  - The extension now shows its synced version in the UI.
