Is Email Tracking for Gmail by MailVibes safe?

Low risk

Email Tracking for Gmail by MailVibes sends Gmail feature requests to the MailVibes API with a bundled API key.

The Gmail content script configures Axios to use https://api.mvib.es/api/ and attaches a hardcoded x-api-key to those requests. The reviewed claim ties this to user, mail, link, template, and mass-mail routes, so MailVibes receives authenticated extension API calls when those features run.
