I'm not currently set up to be able to build Quicksilver/plugins on my machine, but I've had a look through the code in the linked GitHub issue. The SQL queries for extracting history and bookmarks from the 'places.sqlite' file still work for me when running them manually against my local Firefox profile (I've tried on two different machines: one on 60.0.2, the other on 61.0.1). So at least in terms of the query/schema level, there's no reason this shouldn't still work with current versions of Firefox. The other bit of that code for looking at the 'sessionstore' files will be less successful; as far as I can tell, the files it looks at are no longer used by 'Quantum'-based versions of Firefox, though they will be still lying around in the profile folder if you've used it with a previous version. (The newer sessionstore files use a compressed JSON format rather than JavaScript per se, but apart from needing to decompress, it doesn't look like this would otherwise be substantially different from what the plugin code is doing at the moment.) I'll put a comment on the GitHub issue with this information, so it's there for future reference too. Hopefully I'll get a chance at some point to set up the necessary things on my machine to be able to build the plug-in, at which point I might be able to debug further (though I haven't really done any Objective-C development, so I don't have particularly strong skills in that area… :-)).
