knoopx Firefox Bookmarks
Search Firefox bookmarks stored in places.sqlite using Nushell's built-in SQLite support.
Searching Bookmarks
Use the provided script for consistent results:
# Search by keywords (matches titles and URLs, case-insensitive)
^~/.pi/agent/skills/firefox-bookmarks/scripts/search-bookmarks.nu "scraping crawling"
# Single term — defaults to 50 results, most recent first
^~/.pi/agent/skills/firefox-bookmarks/scripts/search-bookmarks.nu "typescript"
# Pagination and custom limit
^~/.pi/agent/skills/firefox-bookmarks/scripts/search-bookmarks.nu --page 2 --limit 10 "docker"
# Override profile (default resolves from $env.USER)
^~/.pi/agent/skills/firefox-bookmarks/scripts/search-bookmarks.nu --profile ks7i6rp1.default "docker"
Results are deduplicated by URL and exclude javascript: URLs. Use --page N for subsequent pages and --limit N (max 50) to adjust page size.
Ad-Hoc Query
For one-off queries not covered by the script:
open ~/.mozilla/firefox/knoopx/places.sqlite | query db "SELECT b.title, p.url FROM moz_bookmarks b JOIN moz_places p ON b.fk = p.id WHERE b.type = 1 LIMIT 20"
Bookmarks are in moz_bookmarks joined to moz_places via b.fk = p.id. Filter with b.type = 1 for actual bookmarks (not folders or separators).
Constraints
- Firefox must not be running when querying — SQLite locks the database
- If Firefox is open, copy first:
cp places.sqlite /tmp/places.sqlite, then query the copy
