Is ClickLearn Authoring Tools safe?

Low risk

ClickLearn Authoring Tools relays page messages to the ClickLearn desktop app over a local WebSocket.

The extension injects a content script into all pages and frames that passes certain window messages to its background script. The background script forwards them to the ClickLearn desktop app listening on 127.0.0.1:8767. Replies from the app only drive element lookups in the active tab; no remote destination was found.
