About this extension
Add metadata such as author, publication date, site name and some other fields to your notes. A bookmark should be more than just URL and title. A link can be saved with page properties where it is found. Notes are formatted for Org mode.

To pass captures to Org Mode either copy notes to clipboard, install a native messaging helper application or configure desktop-wide handler for org-protocol: scheme.

Do not expect perfect quality of metadata. Almost any site has its own oddities.

Release notes for 0.4.0
Changes are almost entirely related to forced transition to another API version for Chrome version of this extensions. Minor fixes:
  • Earlier zero-width space characters U+200B were added after timestamps. You may want to remove them from your notes, use search and replace for
    LAST_MODIFIED: [2021-09-18 Tue 01:23]<200b> 09/18/2021 01:23:46
  • Only first <script> element with JSON-LD metadata was taken into account.
  • Some permissions have been converted to optional ones.

Firefox version still uses Manifest V2 API as in earlier releases due to bugs in mv3 implementation. Significant modifications of code may cause new bugs.

Multiple tabs and cross-origin frames scenarios still require most dangerous <all_urls> permission, so I do not think the add-on has become more safe due to optional permissions. From my point of view, security model for browser extensions is still far from being consistent.
