Redirect chains
SEO migrations and login flows often bounce through several URLs. The URL Redirect Chain Checker requests each hop through the DevTools proxy (with a network disclosure) so you see status codes, Location headers, and timing — without blind auto-follow.
WebSocket frames
When you capture binary frames from devtools or Wireshark, paste hex into the WebSocket Frame Parser. It decodes opcode, mask bit, and UTF-8 payloads per RFC 6455.
Postman collections
Draft API smoke tests in the Postman Collection Builder and copy v2.1 JSON for import into Postman or Newman.
CSV preview
For spreadsheet sanity checks, the CSV Data Viewer renders pasted CSV as a table with delimiter options — no file upload.
