    Welcome to raise issues 😄
    
    ## Core Capabilities
    - Piercing search: Able to directly enter Shadow-DOM, iFrame, and SVG internals.
    - Dynamic real-time monitoring: Optimized based on MutationObserver, it monitors the page in real-time. When you turn pages, switch Tabs, or trigger dynamically loaded Tooltips, new results will pop up automatically.
    - Hardcore regex support: Supports regular expressions (configurable Unicode mode), and built-in "regex blacklist" logic to prevent browser hangs caused by incorrect regex.
    - Status auto-alignment: Automatically refresh results when switching tabs, ensuring the search status is always up to date.
    - Support cross-tag search: Easily find corresponding text even in complex structures.
    
    ## Developer-friendly features
    - Highlighting fully controllable: Uses the browser's native ::highlight API with excellent performance. You can customize background color, text color, and underline styles in the settings page.
    - UI non-interference: The panel supports dragging, frosted glass effects, dark mode, and custom theme colors.
    -One-click extraction: All matched results support one-click copying to the clipboard, convenient for secondary processing.

    ## 核心能力
    - 穿透式搜索: 能够直接进入 Shadow-DOM、iFrame 和 SVG 内部。
    - 动态实时监听: 基于 MutationObserver 优化,它会实时盯着页面。当你翻页、切换 Tab、或者触发了动态加载的 Tooltip 时,新出现的结果会自动跳出来。
    - 硬核正则支持: 支持正则表达式(可配置 Unicode 模式),并内置了「正则黑名单」逻辑,防止写错正则导致浏览器假死。
    - 状态自动对齐: 切换标签页时自动刷新结果,确保搜索状态始终保持最新。
    - 支持跨标签搜索:复杂结构也能轻松搜到对应文本
    
    ## 开发者友好特性
    - 高亮完全可控: 使用浏览器原生的 ::highlight API,性能极佳。你可以在设置页自定义背景色、文字色、下划线样式。
    - UI 不干扰: 面板支持拖拽、毛玻璃特效、深色模式、自定义主题色。
    - 一键提取: 匹配到的所有结果支持一键复制到剪贴板,方便二次处理。
