Is Alpine.js devtools safe?

Clean risk

Alpine.js devtools reads Alpine component and store state from pages you inspect in DevTools.

When you open the Alpine.js DevTools panel, the extension injects its backend into the inspected page and enumerates Alpine components and stores. It serializes component and store values plus the current page URL so they can be shown in the extension's DevTools panel.

Shared hosts - 3 hostnames

Hostnames hardcoded in this extension that few other listings call. That can mean one operator behind both, and it can equally mean a small shared vendor, so it is context rather than a conclusion. Hosts that many listings call are left out: they are services, not connections.
