Add-on summary
Finds and closes duplicate tabs by URL.
User reviews
Simple and functional extension. It checks the container of each tab, so there's no risk of closing tabs with the same URL, but with different credentials (be careful, though, that if a site manages states using cookies, local storage or anything else that doesn't change the URL, the extension will consider the tabs as duplicates and close them.) It pops a message telling how many tabs were closed.
Add-on safety
