Video Controls Plus — extension project

Video Controls Plus is a published cross-browser extension (Chrome Web Store live; Firefox MV2 + Edge MV3 store-ready) that turns any HTML5 video into a power-user cockpit — speed from 0.1x to 16x, precise A-B loops, 400% audio boost, visual filters, one-click screenshots, timestamped notes, and 40+ configurable shortcuts that sync across devices on YouTube, Netflix, Udemy, LinkedIn Learning, Coursera and more. It is built on a single WXT (Manifest V3) + React 19 codebase that also targets Edge and Firefox, backed by 460+ per-platform services and 985 automated tests. After an early Chrome Web Store rejection, it was rebuilt to be fully remote-code-free (Chrome Identity API instead of Firebase Auth SDK, no CDN scripts) — it is now the reference implementation for that compliance standard across the workspace. The companion site at vcpeai.aoneahsan.com ships 413 prerendered routes of AI-citable content.
