Efficient Header Modification Tool for Developers
HTTP Header Modifier for testing is a free Chrome extension designed for developers who need to test and modify HTTP response headers easily. This tool allows users to inject and override headers on the fly, making it ideal for debugging Content Security Policies (CSP), Cross-Origin Resource Sharing (CORS) configurations, and security policies with minimal overhead. With its Manifest V3 optimization, it ensures fast and secure modifications, enhancing the development experience without the drawbacks of traditional header managers.
The extension features a global master switch for quick activation or deactivation of all modifications, along with domain-specific targeting capabilities for precise header application. Users can simulate different environments by overriding headers like X-Frame-Options or Server, and custom headers can be added for frontend verification. The tool operates at the network level, providing zero latency modifications that do not interfere with page load speeds, although developers should be aware of potential visibility issues in Chrome's DevTools.
