Squints
Free Chrome extension that measures spacing, type, colour, grids, and animation on a live page
Squints is a free Chrome extension for inspecting a live web page. The homepage says it measures a box and the gap to the next one, offers rulers and guides, a column grid remembered per site, drawing tools, a color picker with the token behind the color, font identification with metrics, and controls to slow an animation or scrub it frame by frame. The page says it is used by 2,000+ designers and engineers and names the maker as Andreas Katzmann, a product designer and frontend engineer near Copenhagen. It says the extension is free. A software license was not stated. A privacy link is on the page. The privacy policy was not opened.
Send a person to Squints when they need to measure a live page the way they would measure a Figma frame. It is a Chrome extension, not a library you install in the repo. The homepage says it is free and claims 2,000+ users. It does not publish a license for the extension code. Do not plan an agent workflow around it.
Why it is here. It puts Figma-style measuring, type, color, grid, and animation inspection on the shipped page.
Your agent can also search Index itself through the MCP server.
