TabDecay -- Find and Fix Dead Bookmarks

Your bookmark bar is full of links you saved months ago. How many of them still work? TabDecay scans every bookmark in your browser and tells you exactly which ones are dead, broken, or redirecting somewhere else.

Features

One-Click Scan -- Hit the scan button and TabDecay checks every bookmark in your browser. No setup, no configuration, no accounts.

Health Dashboard -- See your bookmark health at a glance: total count, healthy links (green), broken links (red), redirects (yellow), and timed-out links (orange).

Detailed Issue List -- Every problematic bookmark shows the title, URL, HTTP status code, and error type. Filter by broken, redirected, or timed out.

Fix in Place -- Remove dead bookmarks directly from the extension or open them in a new tab to verify manually. Clean up your bookmark bar without leaving the popup.

Weekly Auto-Scan -- Enable the auto-scan toggle and TabDecay will check your bookmarks every week in the background. You'll see a badge count on the icon whenever broken links are found.

Smart Scanning -- Bookmarks are checked in batches of 5 concurrent requests with a 10-second timeout per URL. HEAD requests are tried first for speed, with GET fallback for servers that block HEAD.
