Enables users to efficiently download large numbers of illustrations, manga, animations (ugoira), and novels from Pixiv with advanced filtering, custom naming, and resume capabilities - tasks that would be extremely tedious to do manually

Install extension → Navigate to pixiv.net (must be logged in) → Extension UI appears on Pixiv pages → Set filter/naming preferences → Select download scope (artist, bookmarks, search, rankings, etc.) → Batch download with progress tracking → Files saved with custom naming/folder structure

Target users: Pixiv users who want to batch download artwork / Art collectors and archivists / Illustration enthusiasts and manga readers / Content creators looking for reference material

Content.js (3.2MB webpack bundle) was not fully inspected due to size - grep searches on this file returned no matches likely due to encoding/bundling
Whether Pixiv login is required for ALL features vs only authenticated features (e.g., public artwork pages) was not fully confirmed

Monetization

No paid features detected

The extension is completely free and open-source. No premium, subscription, purchase, payment, price, or billing code found in the source. The README mentions Patreon (external donation link for developer support), but no features are gated behind payment. Pixiv itself has a premium subscription, but the extension does not gate features based on Pixiv Premium status.

Confidence: 95
Payment platform: --
Source: AI / High
Login required: Yes
Reason: The extension operates on pixiv.net and requires the user to be logged into their Pixiv account to use most features (downloading bookmarks, following users, accessing personal content). The code references `loggedUserID` to identify the current Pixiv user and accesses Pixiv API endpoints (`pixiv.net/ajax/user/`) that require authentication cookies. The extension itself does NOT implement its own login - it relies on the user's existing Pixiv session.
