- 125+ built-in actions across 11 categories
- Cloud sync with automatic local fallback when data exceeds sync quota

- Shortcut conflict detection — platform-aware warnings for browser default clashes
- Undo/redo in the settings page
- Guided onboarding wizard for new users

- Tab group actions — group, ungroup, name, and collapse tab groups (Chrome)
- Link hints — display letter hints over links, type to click (like Vimium)
