Notes

This script edits plain text nodes within the webpage DOM; it does not support complex HTML or rich-text editing.

Some websites with custom protections or unusual structures might limit the script’s editing capability.

The edit history is saved locally and does not sync across devices.

To disable the script temporarily, use your userscript manager (e.g., Tampermonkey).
