History Cleaner Ext by Nabil Tharwat

A browser extension that prevents configured websites from cluttering your browsing history. Block social media sites, shopping platforms, or any domains you choose from automatically appearing in your history. Customizable through an easy-to-use options page where you can add or remove monitored sites.

The only required permission is 'history'. This is because the extension monitors your history for new entries that match the sites you've configured, and deletes matched entries. It will NOT modify any other history entry, nor will it ever send your private history data anywhere. The code is open source and verified by Mozilla.
