Description from store

HTTP Header Modifier for testing is a lightweight, high-performance developer tool designed to inject, override, and modify HTTP response headers on the fly. Built with the modern Manifest V3 engine, it provides a secure and efficient way to debug web security policies, CORS configurations, and server behaviors without the bloat of traditional header managers.

🚀 Key Use Cases
# Debug CSP & Security: Easily test and bypass Content Security Policy (CSP) or HSTS headers in your local development environment.
# CORS Troubleshooting: Inject Access-Control-Allow-Origin headers to resolve cross-origin issues during API development.
# Environment Simulation: Override headers like X-Frame-Options or Server to simulate different backend environments.
# Custom Headers: Add your own custom headers (e.g., X-DummyHeader) to verify frontend logic.

🛠️ Features
# Global Master Switch: Quickly enable or disable all modifications with a single click.
# Domain-Specific Targeting: Use powerful URL matching (e.g., example.com) to ensure headers only apply where you need them.
# Manifest V3 Optimized: Uses the declarativeNetRequest API for native-speed header modification that respects browser privacy.
# Zero Latency: Modifications happen at the network level, ensuring no impact on page load speed.

⚠️ Note for Developers Due to Chrome’s internal networking optimizations (HSTS and HTTP/3), modified headers may occasionally be hidden in the "Network" tab of DevTools. To verify active headers, it is recommended to check the console using: fetch(window.location.href).then(r => console.log(r.headers.get('Your-Header')))

Very helpful, does exactly what it's supposed to do and stays with my extensions in the browser.
