    {
      "title": "Inbox (1) - <hidden>@gmail.com - Gmail",
      "url": "https://mail.google.com/mail/u/0/#inbox",
      "winIdx": 0,
      "tabIdx": 0,
      "arg": "0,0",
      "subtitle": "https://mail.google.com/mail/u/0/#inbox"
    },
    {
      "title": "iPhone - Apple",
      "url": "https://www.apple.com/iphone/",
      "winIdx": 0,
      "tabIdx": 1,
      "arg": "0,1",

Don't prompt the user

--yes flag will cause no questions to be asked to the user. It'll close all tabs straight away.

Attention: Use this with caution. Make sure you don't have any unsaved work, emails, ... etc.

Prompt user in Chrome

--ui flag will cause the questions to be asked using a Chrome dialog instead of text in command line.

./chrome.js close --url apple --ui
