Tab Session Saver — Daypack: Save, Restore, Schedule

About

Save sets of tabs as named sessions. Restore in one click, with a hotkey, or on a schedule. Workspace organizer for daily routines.

WHAT IT DOES

• Save current — snapshots every tab in the current Chrome window (pinned state and tab groups preserved).
• New empty — starts a blank session you fill in by hand (paste URLs one per line).
• Open — clicking a session in the popup opens it in a new window (default) or replaces the current window's tabs.

THREE WAYS TO TRIGGER A SESSION

• Click in the popup — fastest.
• Hotkey — assign a session to slot 1–9, then press Ctrl+Shift+1..3 (or bind any slot to your own combo at chrome://extensions/shortcuts).
• Schedule — pick weekdays and a time. The session fires once at the next matching minute, then re-arms.

USE CASES

• Work / Home — open your Linear + GitHub + Notion set when you sit down at the desk; a different set in the evening.
• Focus modes — a "Deep work" session with just your IDE and docs, a "Research" session with 8 tabs of reading.
• Recurring rituals — schedule "Monday standup prep" to open at 08:55 Mon–Fri automatically.

PRIVACY

• Everything lives in chrome.storage.sync — sessions follow your Chrome profile across machines.
• No analytics. No remote config. No account required.
• Open-source, MIT-spirit side-project.

PERMISSIONS

• tabs — read open tab URLs to snapshot a session; open new tabs when restoring one.
• tabGroups — preserve tab group title and color inside saved sessions.
• storage — persist sessions.
• alarms — fire scheduled sessions.
• windows — open a saved session in a new window.

EXTRAS

• Import / Export — sessions serialize to JSON. Back them up, move them between profiles, share a set.
• Drag to reorder URLs inside a session.
• Pin individual tabs in a session.

Free, forever. If it saves you tab-juggling time, there's an optional ☕ coffee link in the popup — completely optional.
