SteamHelper is built for players who want more context on Steam without handing over control. The extension keeps sensitive decisions visible and keeps its permission scope focused.
SteamHelper does not ask for a Steam password. Steam sign-in uses Steam OpenID through the SteamHelper backend, and Steam credentials remain with Steam.
SteamHelper is scoped to supported Steam and SteamHelper surfaces. It does not need permission to read every website a user visits.
Important actions such as selling, trade review and settings changes remain review-first. SteamHelper provides context and shortcuts, but the user reviews the result.
No. SteamHelper never asks for your Steam password or Steam Guard codes. The optional sign-in happens on Steam's own OpenID login page, so your credentials stay with Steam.
No. Core features work without a Steam Web API key. If your account has an API key you did not create yourself, revoke it on Steam — stolen keys are a common way scammers intercept trade offers.
No. All executable code ships inside the extension package that the browser stores review. Responses from the SteamHelper API are only used as data, such as prices and item details.
Yes. Every helper can be switched off in the SteamHelper settings, and removing the extension brings Steam back to its normal look. Your inventory, listings and trades stay untouched.
