Publisher identity, store signals, distribution reach, and warning signals used for context. Treat this as supporting evidence, not a clean bill of health.

Firefox does not expose the same publisher verification data as IDE stores, so this score is deliberately conservative.

About This Extension

Unofficial companion browser extension for LeetCode with Auth Sync. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, sponsored by, or published by LeetCode. How to use it: 1. Install the VS Code extension from <a href="https://prod.outgoing.prod.webservices.mozgcp.net/v1/31ec2ce934287bcf5f5d14e0eac45f1989269bf8dce99c3a9ecbab3209dca845/https%3A//marketplace.visualstudio.com/items%3FitemName=wilmtang.vscode-leetcode-auth-sync" rel="nofollow">https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=wilmtang.vscode-leetcode-auth-sync</a> 2. Install this Firefox add-on on the same machine. 3. Sign in to <a href="https://prod.outgoing.prod.webservices.mozgcp.net/v1/46789bf1eadef441e1a138c754d9d5ca7dc7ed71c3af2455dc252ea39e1124d4/https%3A//leetcode.com/" rel="nofollow">https://leetcode.com/</a> in Firefox. 4. In VS Code, click LeetCode: Sign In and choose Auto Cookie Sync. 5. In this add-on popup, click Expire now, then open or refresh any <a href="https://prod.outgoing.prod.webservices.mozgcp.net/v1/38bfcd362f1787de4f850620bfd49db1b26c8fb561bd46a4f5572949df99d104/http%3A//leetcode.com" rel="nofollow">leetcode.com</a> page so the next real LeetCode request syncs cookies and browser request headers to VS Code. How it works: the VS Code extension starts a local listener on 127.0.0.1:17899. This add-on reads your <a href="https://prod.outgoing.prod.webservices.mozgcp.net/v1/38bfcd362f1787de4f850620bfd49db1b26c8fb561bd46a4f5572949df99d104/http%3A//leetcode.com" rel="nofollow">leetcode.com</a> cookies and sends the LeetCode Cookie header to that local listener, where VS Code reuses the existing cookie login flow. Cookie values are sent only to the local VS Code listener and are not intentionally logged.
