aw-watcher-web records browser activity for ActivityWatch through a cross-browser extension.
About Extensions
aw-watcher-web is a cross-browser WebExtension that works as a browser watcher for ActivityWatch. It records the active tab's title, URL, audible state, and incognito state, while ActivityWatch without it can usually only see the browser window title.
