MRU Tab Stack — auto-move your most recently used tab to the front or back; works with pinned tabs and tab groups.
MRU Tab Stack keeps your most recently used tab within easy reach so you can focus and move faster. When you switch to a tab, MRU Tab Stack can automatically move it to the front or the end of the tab strip according to your preference. It respects pinned tabs and Chrome tab groups and runs locally in your browser — no external permissions.
Why use MRU Tab Stack?
- Spend less time hunting for tabs — your active tab is automatically moved where you expect it.
- Works with pinned tabs and Chrome tab groups without disturbing your pinned layout.
- Lightweight, private, and configurable — minimal permissions and local-only debug logs.
Features
- Auto-move the most recently used tab to the front or end of the tab strip
- Respects pinned tabs and Chrome tab groups
- Configurable move delay and ordering in Options
- Minimal permissions — only storage requested; no browsing data uploaded
- Structured debug logs (optional, local) for easier troubleshooting
How it works
1. Install MRU Tab Stack and open Options to choose front or back behavior and the move delay.
2. Switch tabs as usual (including using browser Ctrl+Tab). The extension listens for tab activation and will move the tab after the configured delay.
3. Enable debug mode in Options if you want more detailed, local-only logs (these log only non-sensitive tab metadata).
Privacy
- MRU Tab Stack intentionally requests only the `storage` permission.
- No browsing data is uploaded or shared.
- Debug logs (optional) record only non-sensitive tab metadata (id, index, windowId, groupId, title) and are stored locally in the extension console.
What's new (v2.0.2)
- Removed extension-registered commands to keep permissions minimal (no `tabs` or host permissions).
- Improved debug logging with summarized, non-sensitive tab information.
- Internal cleanup and updated documentation.
