If you happen to be on mac, there's an app called finicky that does this. It can also pattern match on source application which is pretty handy.

I'm not, but that's nice. Pattern matching on the source application is actually what I would have preferred (and what I kept looking to see if anything on Windows could provide), but never found anything. Matching on the URL actually works well enough though, which I know because my prior workflow was just a work container tab in Firefox with the Container Proxy extension to proxy only those tabs in that container, and work URLs were set to prefer that Firefox container.

I was actually fairly happy with that, but it's nice to just be able to close the chrome instance with all the work tabs at the end of the day and have them all reopen when I start it up the next day, and all my work tabs are self contained and proxied through work. The only downside is I can't just click to open in Teams or Outlook, and need to copy the link and manually open it in Chrome, which is what I was aiming to fix.

Much appreciated! The first looks to be an example of how to register the handler through an installer, instead of the registry hack I'm doing (since MS only wants things actually installed and visible in Add/Remove programs to be protocol handlers, for obvious reasons, even if annoying), and the second isn't barely related, it's looks to be essentially the same thing but in C. Here's mine for comparison: https://github.com/kbenson/urlswitcher-deno
