Tab Memory Saver — Ultimate Browser Productivity & Focus Tool

Tired of your browser slowing down? Tab Memory Saver helps you reclaim memory, manage tab clutter, and stay focused. It combines powerful auto-discarding with a suite of productivity tools like Zen Mode, Session Management, and Tasks.

🚀 **NEW in Version 1.2:**
* **🌑 Dark Mode:** The interface now automatically adapts to your system's dark theme for a sleek look.
* **⚡ Power Context Menu:** Right-click any tab to instantly "Discard This Tab", "Add to Tasks", or toggle "Auto-Discard" protection.
* **♻️ Duplicate Remover:** Instantly clean up your workspace by closing identical tabs with one click.
* **🔍 Quick Tab Search:** Have 50+ tabs open? Type to filter and jump to the exact tab you need instantly.
* **📊 Impact Dashboard:** See exactly how many tabs you've put to sleep and how much RAM you've saved.

**Key Productivity Features:**
* **🧘 Zen Mode:** The ultimate panic button. One click discards ALL non-essential tabs to free up massive RAM, keeping only your active work and music running.
* **📂 Session Snapshots:** Context switching? Save your entire window of tabs as a named "Session" (e.g., "Morning Research") and close them. Restore them instantly later.
* **✅ Contextual To-Do List:** Don't leave tabs open as reminders. "Add Tab as Task" saves the link to a checklist so you can close the tab and focus.
* **🧹 Smart Tab Sorting:** Automatically groups your messy tab strip by website domain (e.g., all YouTube tabs together) and title.
* **🛡️ Domain Whitelisting:** Protect important sites (like Email or Music) so they are *never* discarded.

**Core Functionality:**
* **Auto-Discard:** Frees up memory from background tabs you haven't touched in a while (customizable timer).
* **Visual Feedback:** Sleeping tabs show a "💤" icon so you know they are saving resources.
* **Privacy First:** 100% Local. No data tracking. No cloud sync.

**Why Use Tab Memory Saver?**
* **Speed:** Reduce memory usage by up to 80%.
* **Focus:** Eliminate visual clutter with Zen Mode and Sorting.
* **Organization:** Manage workflows with Sessions and Tasks.
