Could you build this?
Partial The Chrome extension mechanics are simple, but skipping scenes requires a crowdsourced or curated database of timestamped content markers for Netflix titles, which vibe coding cannot create.
What it would actually take: The extension can be built with standard content scripts that seek and mute the Netflix player. The real product depends on a dataset of scene timestamps and categories, which needs a community contribution flow with moderation, or a labeling pipeline using video and audio analysis. Quality control on those labels and the legal and platform-risk side are the hard parts.
