We made Tab Shark, like Wireshark, but a browser extension [Free Tool]
We made the Chrome extension Tab Shark (or search Tab Shark on Chrome Web Store)
Now you can run network-capture and traffic-analysis right inside a browser tab.
It gives similar packet-by-packet visibility that you get from Wireshark, but scoped to exactly one tab's web traffic.
Any and all feedback welcome, thank you.

so you... reinvented the ui to developer tools? this is nothing like wireshark, not even in the same galaxy. I don't understand..
Thank you for your question. It certainly functions like developer tools and at first glance almost looks like it is just a ui slapped onto the old tools. I mean, it does go into debug mode to run...But when you click STOP on the capture and start to look at the traffic, it lets you organize it and trace which devices are talking to each other.
Step 1: vibe code dozens of shitty browser extensions and spam them all over reddit
Step 2: ???
Step 3: profit!
How is this useful for pentesting? What does this even do which a proxy of your choice (caido, burp, etc) doesn't already? Poorly thought out, vibe coded concept for a problem that doesn't exist (or the ai told you would exist).
Nobody wants your vibe coded slop, my guy
Yes, let me install random non-FOSS AI vibe coded extensions on my browser. There's definitely not a track record of AI browser extensions being used as vectors for malware and info stealers, so should be perfectly safe!
