# Synapse Web Clipper – Get this Extension for 🦊 Firefox (en-US)

Click the toolbar icon, pick a repo, confirm the filename — and the page is extracted, converted to Markdown, and pushed as a commit via the GitHub API. Perfect for personal knowledge bases, reading lists, research archives, or any workflow built on a Git repo of Markdown notes.
Features
- Clean content extraction using Mozilla Readability (strips nav, ads, footers)
- HTML-to-Markdown conversion via Turndown (fenced code blocks, ATX headings)
- YAML frontmatter with title, source URL, byline, and save timestamp
- Configure multiple repositories, each with its own branch and default folder
- Smart filename suggestions (date + page title slug), fully editable per save
- Updates existing files instead of failing if the same path already exists
How it works
1. Create a GitHub personal access token (classic repo scope, or fine-grained with Contents: read and write).
2. Open the extension's Options page, paste your token, and add one or more repositories.
3. On any page, click the toolbar icon, pick a repo, and save.
Privacy
Your token is stored locally in browser storage and is only ever sent to [api.github.com](https://prod.outgoing.prod.webservices.mozgcp.net/v1/54fb2aafa19f10e258889c9bfbcd7fe852df1d9f0a35c4b473f6df6a61f9b122/http%3A//api.github.com). No analytics, no telemetry, no third-party servers. Page
content is only transmitted when you explicitly click save, and only to the GitHub repository you configured.
#### Optional permissions:
- Access your data for all websites
#### Data collection:
- The developer says this extension doesn't require data collection.
