No open-source build does this yet
Nothing published replaces this one, so a replacement starts from an empty file. Here is what it would have to cover.
What a replacement has to do
- Scan a social profile's followers/following list in-page, apply filters (inactive, follower-count, mutuals), execute unfollow operations with safe delays and whitelist protection, and export results to CSV.
What it still won’t have
- Chrome Web Store publishing, ratings, and established user base
- The bundled All-Access lifetime license and cross-extension bundle convenience
- Ongoing maintenance, updates, and priority support
- Polish and battle-tested safety tuning for rate-limits and site UI edge-cases
What remains hard
- Brand trust

What we assumed
The verdict above measures whether you could build it. This one is only about money.
Runnable build prompt
Build a Chrome extension (Manifest V3) using TypeScript and plain DOM (or React for the UI) that implements: 1) a content script to parse X follower/following lists and extract username, bio, follower count, and last-post date; 2) an injected on-page modal UI for filtering (inactive, follower-count, mutuals), whitelist management, and selection preview; 3) a background script to perform unfollow actions with configurable delays/rate-limiting, retries, and safe abort; 4) local storage sync for settings/whitelist and CSV/JSON export of selected accounts; 5) tests for DOM parsing and action logic, robust error handling for missing selectors/site changes, and packaging scripts for Chrome Web Store. Out of scope: downloading videos, other social-platform integrations, and server-side sync or analytics.
