Review summary

The plugin can delete and recreate nodes within your current selection, but everything happens locally — no data leaves the file. Several user reviews report bugs on large or Auto-Layout-heavy selections (hangs, duplicate frames) — save a version checkpoint before running on production files.

Risk assessment

Risk level
Low risk
Why this risk exists
Open source plugin. Manifest declares no permissions and no network access, and a full read of the source code confirms it: the plugin only touches the current selection and detaches/removes/recreates nodes via Figma's own Plugin API. No network calls, storage, or third-party services found anywhere.
Mitigation
None needed for privacy.
Confidence
Medium-High — full source code and manifest reviewed; live network traffic while running the plugin was not captured.

Review methodology

Tests performed
  • Manifest inspection
  • Full source code review (code.ts and code.js)
  • Community listing review (permissions badge, developer info)
Evidence
  • Plugin manifest (verified — no permissions, no network access declared)
  • Full source code on GitHub (verified — no network calls found)
Known limitations
  • Live network traffic while the plugin runs was not captured
  • No manual click-through testing performed
  • Did not confirm the exact live bundle byte-matches the linked GitHub source
