# PX7 Markdown Tab Sweeper

*Desk Sweeper for your tab bar.*
<https://markdown.px7.digital/tab-sweeper>

## Install

1. Drag **PX7 Markdown Tab Sweeper** into your **Applications** folder — in the disk image, drop it onto the **Applications** shortcut.
2. Open it — a small **📚 icon** appears in your menu bar (there's no Dock window; it lives in the menu bar).
3. The first time it reads your tabs, macOS asks to let PX7 Markdown Tab Sweeper **control Safari** — click **OK**. That's the only permission it needs.

> **Please install to Applications.** macOS runs apps launched from Downloads or a disk image out of a *read-only* copy, which prevents the app from updating itself.

## What it does

PX7 Markdown Tab Sweeper watches your open **Safari** tabs. Any tab you haven't touched in **7 days** (adjustable) is archived to a dated Markdown file in your **Documents ▸ PX7 Markdown Tab Sweeper** folder — then closed. The archive is plain `.md` you own; open it any time, click a link to reopen the page. **"Save all open tabs"** snapshots your current session on demand without closing anything.

Nothing is closed in the first 7 days after you install — a freshly-seen tab starts its clock the moment PX7 Markdown Tab Sweeper first sees it. Pin a window as **"never sweep"** in Settings. Everything runs on your Mac. **No cloud, no account.** Safari only (v1).
