Description

Extension

https://www.raycast.com/loris/safari

OS Version

macOS Tahoe 26.6.2 arm64

Description
Summary

Add a new command (or action in the tab list) to quickly duplicate the currently active Safari tab.

Current behavior

Currently, the extension allows searching and opening tabs, bookmarks, and history, but does not provide a command/action to duplicate the active tab.

Desired behavior

A dedicated command (e.g. Duplicate Tab / Duplicate Current Tab) that grabs the URL of the active tab in Safari's front window, creates a new tab with that URL, and focuses it.

Research direction

Start by inspecting the linked Safari extension and its existing tab-list commands or actions. Trace how it accesses the active Safari tab and opens tabs. Done means a dedicated command or tab-list action retrieves the active tab’s URL, opens it in a new tab, and focuses that tab.
