Is Tampermonkey Editors safe?
Tampermonkey Editors lets vscode.dev read and edit Tampermonkey userscript files.
When a tab opens vscode.dev with connectTo=tampermonkey, the extension injects a bridge that lets that page list, read, and patch Tampermonkey userscript files through the browser extension. The code returns userscript file contents and modification times to vscode.dev and can send edited contents back to Tampermonkey.
