What it does

Built for people with hundreds of stale bookmarks.

Three-state classification

Every bookmark is HEAD-checked with a configurable timeout, then sorted into Healthy, Slow, or Failed — no more guessing.

Live progress, side panel detail

Real-time stats in the popup, full URLs (never truncated) and per-row retry / delete in the side panel.

Bulk delete, two-step confirm

Pick "Delete failed bookmarks" and "Delete slow bookmarks", confirm once, done. Two-step confirm avoids MV3-unfriendly window.confirm.

Bilingual UI, light & dark

中文 / English with auto-detect. Token-based theming with Light, Dark, and Follow-system modes. Anti-FOUC on every page.

Export your report

Download the full scan as a CSV — title, URL, status, response time — for further auditing or sharing.

100% local

Only contacts URLs from your own bookmark list. No analytics, no telemetry, no remote code. Everything stays in chrome.storage.

Made by snowbits

I build small, focused tools. 404 Hunter started as a personal annoyance (three hundred dead links in my own bookmarks) and turned into a weekend project that grew up. The full source is open under MIT — read it, fork it, send a PR.

Stop clicking dead links.

One click, one less cleanup weekend.
