Tab Router by Logan Grado
Automatically moves new tabs to the right window based on URL context. Open a link from Slack or email and it lands where you're already working, not wherever your cursor happened to be.

About this extension
Tab Router keeps your browser windows organised by context.
When you open a link from outside Firefox (from Slack, email, a terminal, or anywhere else) Tab Router finds the window where you're
already working on that site and moves the tab there automatically.
Example: You have two windows open: one for gitlab.com/org/repo-A, one for gitlab.com/org/repo-B. A teammate sends you a link to gitlab.com/org/repo-A/issues/42. It lands in the first window, not wherever your cursor happened to be.
Matching is done by URL prefix, most-specific first. The window with the deepest match wins.
Links you open yourself inside Firefox — by clicking, middle-clicking, or using Ctrl+T — are left alone. Only externally-opened links are routed.
