Sciezka
A fast, Spotlight-style browser extension for searching tabs, history, bookmarks, and recently closed tabs. Built with vanilla TypeScript — no framework dependencies.
Sciezka means "path" in Polish.
Why?
I relied on Saka for years to quickly jump between tabs, search history, and find bookmarks — all from the keyboard. It stopped being maintained. I couldn't find a replacement that was as fast and keyboard-driven, so I built one.
Features
- Fuzzy search across open tabs, browsing history, bookmarks, and recently closed tabs
- Three search methods: fuzzy (fzy algorithm), full-text, and prefix matching
- Keyboard-driven: navigate entirely with keyboard shortcuts
- Spotlight-style overlay: appears on any page without leaving your current context
- Match highlighting: matched characters highlighted in search results
- Configurable: set default search method and mode order via the options page

Disclaimer
I have no practical knowledge of working with TypeScript or Mozilla Extensions. I created this extention mostly using Claude because the one I was using is not longer maintained. I hope to maintain this for long time. If you find any issues/concerns please feel free to contact me or open an issue.
