How Source Detector works

Source Detector is a browser-based workflow for discovering source maps, collecting client-side artifacts, and surfacing suspicious patterns for manual review.

1. Discovery

The extension observes source map references and related client-side assets while you browse target pages in Chrome.

2. Pattern scanning

Collected assets can be scanned with built-in and custom rules to highlight strings and structures that may indicate secret leakage or other risky client-side exposure.

3. Evidence review

Findings are presented for inspection so you can review the surrounding evidence and decide whether a pattern represents a real issue, a public identifier, or a low-risk clue.

4. Export and validation

Artifacts can be exported for offline validation, internal escalation, or documentation. Source Detector helps with discovery and evidence collection, but it does not replace manual security judgment.
