Snug is a local-only browser extension for exporting, importing, and backing up bookmarks across browsers in six formats (HTML, JSON, CSV, Markdown, OPML, XBEL) with features like duplicate detection, scheduled auto-export, and safety snapshots. It stands out for its privacy-first design (no network calls), robust import preview/undo, and thorough documentation covering usage, architecture, and governance.

Target audience: end users, developers, and privacy-conscious users who manage browser bookmarks
