Private Merlino AI Tool

Chrome Ripper

A Chrome extension and local command-line tool that starts every visible export, archive, repository ZIP, and media download it can safely reach.

What It Does

Repo ZIPs

Detects GitHub, GitLab, and Bitbucket repository links and downloads default branch ZIP archives.

Dashboard Exports

Downloads visible export links from platforms such as Vercel, Netlify, Supabase, Neon, Stripe, and PayPal.

Media And Data

Grabs obvious ZIP, CSV, JSON, SQL, PDF, XLSX, image, video, and Reddit media links from the current page.

Terminal Downloads

Runs as a local command for direct URLs, repo shortcuts, and text, CSV, or JSON input lists with high concurrency.

Install

  1. Open chrome://extensions.
  2. Enable Developer mode.
  3. Click Load unpacked.
  4. Select the project extension/ folder.

The ZIP in dist/ is only for backup or transfer. Chrome runs the extracted folder.

Local Tool

Run from the project folder when you already have direct export URLs or repository names.

npm run download -- --repo github:owner/repo --out .\downloads --concurrency 32

Use GITHUB_TOKEN or GH_TOKEN for private GitHub repo ZIPs. Browser-session dashboards still need the Chrome extension.

Rules

Chrome Ripper does not bypass permissions, scrape secrets, solve CAPTCHAs, or dump hidden databases. It downloads what the signed-in browser can already reach as a file or link.
