Score: 7.5/10 (Innovation: 7, Technical: 8, Documentation: 8, Utility: 7)

Selector Forge is a browser extension that uses AI to generate and verify robust CSS/XPath selectors by testing candidates against the live DOM, ensuring reliability for test automation and scraping. Its trust-boundary architecture—where the AI proposes but the browser always verifies—sets it apart from naive selector tools. The project is well-structured with a modular codebase, thorough testing strategy, and clear documentation, making it a practical tool for developers dealing with brittle selectors.

Target audience: QA engineers, test automation engineers, web scrapers, and developers building end-to-end tests
