Markdown Link Capturer

Prompt to GPT used to create this plugin:

This plugin is generated by the following prompt with minor edit of adding count. Hence the prompt captures its functionality well:

I want tamper monkey plugin in chrome that would allow me to easily snapshot links towards my markdown.

Here is what I want:

• What I open any link the plugin will save the title of the open page to some local storage of the plugin. in the markdown format as - [<title>](url).
• Then there should be a way to quickly access these links such as dumping them to clipboard.
• Once the links are dumped to clipboard, they are cleared.

Can we make this happen with Tamper monkey on chrome?

Notes on usage

• Open the links as new tabs.
• Wait for the pages to load prior to exporting the links of newly opened pages
