Is LiveReload Reborn safe?

Clean risk

LiveReload Reborn sends the current page URL to a local LiveReload WebSocket server when enabled by the user.

LiveReload Reborn injects a LiveReload client into the active tab after the user clicks the extension and a local LiveReload server is available. The injected client opens ws://localhost:35729/livereload and sends an info message containing the page URL.
