About this extension
Permanent Container Tabs adds a Reopen Tab in Container action: trivially reopen the current tab in a different container without leaving the old tab behind.

If you have Temporary Containers installed, only your permanent containers are displayed.

What Permanent Container Tabs adds to the right-click menu:
  • Reopen Tab in Container — closes the current tab and opens a new one at the same URL in your chosen container
  • Open in New Container Tab — available on link and bookmark right-clicks; opens the target directly in a container without disturbing the current tab
  • Alternate submenu — one action lives at the top level of the context menu; the other is nested one level down; the settings page lets you pick which is which
  • Temporary Container entry — if Temporary Containers or Temporary Containers Plus is installed, a "Temporary Container" option appears in every container picker so you can still reach disposable containers from the same menu
  • Isolation notice — when Temporary Containers global isolation mode silently intercepts a reopen and redirects it into a throwaway container, Permanent Container Tabs detects it and opens a brief explanation page; can be turned off in settings

Works standalone or alongside Temporary Containers and Temporary Containers Plus. Neither is required.

Privacy: Permanent Container Tabs does not collect, transmit, or store anything beyond your local settings. No network requests. No telemetry. Everything stays on your machine.
