Extension

https://www.raycast.com/raycast/browser-bookmarks

Description

Currently, the Browser Bookmarks extension supports major browsers like Chrome, Safari, Firefox, and Edge. However, it would be beneficial to add support for Comet, the Chromium-based browser developed by Perplexity.

Comet is built on Chromium and supports most Chrome extensions. Adding compatibility should primarily require ensuring the extension correctly detects and accesses Comet's profile and bookmarks storage locations.

This would allow Comet users to seamlessly access their bookmarks through Raycast, improving their workflow integration.

Who will benefit from this feature?

Comet users who use Raycast as their command launcher. Developers and power users who want quick access to their browser bookmarks through Raycast, regardless of which Chromium-based browser they use.

Anything else?

Comet is available at https://comet.perplexity.com and is gaining popularity among users who appreciate its AI-powered features integrated with a Chromium browser. Adding support would expand the extension's reach to this growing user base.

Technical Reference: Comet stores bookmarks similarly to other Chromium-based browsers, so the implementation should follow the same pattern already used for Chrome and Edge support.

Research direction

Start by locating the Browser Bookmarks extension in the repository and read how Chrome and Edge profile and bookmark storage paths are detected. Verify Comet's equivalent paths and test that bookmarks can be discovered and accessed; done means Comet users can use the extension alongside the existing supported browsers.
