# browser autocomplete editor

an extension to customize browser autocomplete entries — for example, forcing discord.com/app over discord.com. nothing like this exists; Redirector and Requestly act after navigation. Chrome's Omnibox API doesn't expose autocomplete editing. entirely novel concept but may require creative workarounds since browsers don't expose this natively. could approximate with URL redirect + history manipulation.

**spreadsheet evaluation:** originality 10/10 (highest possible — nothing exists), excitement 6/10, MVP 1-2 weeks. tech depth 2/10, labeled [ARCHIVE] ("tiny extension"). the main risk is technical feasibility — Chrome may not allow true autocomplete editing.
