Safari Tabs

Safari browser management via AppleScript.

Key Scripts

Getting Tabs

Copyget_tabs.sh                    # All tabs as TSV
get_tabs.sh markdown           # All tabs as markdown
get_tabs.sh -w 1 markdown      # Window 1 only
get_tabs.sh -m "term" markdown # Window containing "term"

Closing Tabs

Always use close_by_pattern.sh (finds tabs by URL regardless of position):

Copyclose_by_pattern.sh "unique-url-substring"

# Examples
close_by_pattern.sh "adrianroselli.com"
close_by_pattern.sh "/article/css-has-guide"

Closes ALL matching tabs across all windows. Use unique substring.

Alternative: close by position (error-prone, avoid unless necessary):

Copyclose_tabs.sh "1,5" "2,3"  # Window,tab pairs (1-indexed)

Analysis Workflow

1. Fetch: get_tabs.sh markdown
2. Analyze: group by domain, identify duplicates/clusters, flag stale content
3. Report: stats, categorized list, suggestions
4. Act: close with close_by_pattern.sh "url-substring"

Process-and-close pattern:

1. Fetch tab
2. Process it
3. Close: close_by_pattern.sh "unique-url-part"
4. Next tab

Export Formats

Copyexport_tabs_markdown.sh [list|table|checklist|grouped]
export_tabs_json.sh
export_tabs_csv.sh
export_tabs_html.sh > bookmarks.html  # Importable format

Other Features

Duplicates: find_duplicates.sh [--close] Domain stats: domain_stats.sh Reading list: get_reading_list.sh [tsv|markdown|json] Bookmarks: get_bookmarks.sh [tree|flat|json] History: search_history.sh [term] [--days N] Open URLs: open_urls.sh urls.txt or pipe stdin
