Install once: npm install -g @mindsocket/chrome-open-tabs
Or one-off: npx @mindsocket/chrome-open-tabs ...
Hierarchy
--user-data (browser) → --profile → --device
| Option | Default | Notes |
|---|---|---|
--user-data |
Chrome | path to browser's User Data dir |
--profile |
Default |
Try Profile 1, Profile 2 etc if Default not right |
--device |
all | filter to one synced device; requires browser to be closed |
Mode
Always prints to stderr: [sync-data] or [session-files]
- sync-data — reads Chrome sync LevelDB; shows tabs across all synced devices
- session-files — reads local SNSS session file; local tabs only, no device info; used when browser has no sync data or is running
Common workflow
# 1. Find which devices are synced
chrome-open-tabs --profile "Profile 1" devices
# → MacBook Air
# → Pixel 9a
# 2. Get tabs from a specific device
chrome-open-tabs --profile "Profile 1" --device "Pixel 9a" --json
# 3. Get all tabs across all devices
chrome-open-tabs --profile "Profile 1" --json
Other browsers
# Arc
chrome-open-tabs --user-data "$HOME/Library/Application Support/Arc/User Data"
Notes
--deviceanddevicesrequire sync data — both error if the browser is running- If the browser is running, falls back to session files automatically (local tabs only)
