Is Scholar Utility Belt safe?
Scholar Utility Belt sends Google Scholar paper titles and URLs to CatalyzeX for code-link lookup.
When detailed Google Scholar results are shown, the extension checks CatalyzeX for associated code repositories. That lookup includes the paper title and paper URL, and the background service worker sends the request without browser credentials.
