I was tired to copy the URL of pages to paste it in Sci-Hub website 100 times per hours while I was reading scientific papers.
So I've created a very simple button addon for Mozilla Firefox which do it all for me.
This part will explain you how to load the plugin in developper mode. I would recommand you to prefer installing the plugin from the official stores (with links above).
Open the debug page on the addon section
about:debugging#addons
Depending on your version of Firefox, this link may redirect you somewhere else. e.g. Ff 71 =>
about:debugging#/runtime/this-firefox
From that webpage, press the bug button Load Temporary Addon-On... and choose the manifest.json.
IDK the way to, but the plugin is working on it (because it's using the very raw functions of any browser If you want to complete that part, feel free to PR it /2020😉
Also, as written above, the plugin is not (and will never be) on the chrome store because it doesn't respect it's policy

Go on scientific page with PDF hidden behind a paywall, click on the Auto Sci-Hub button, and Sci-Hub will pop up with your PDF on another tab 😀

PS: If the plugin is not available on markets anymore, it must be due to the fact that it doesn't respect Market Policy, so build it from source (it's a very simple plugin based on JS API, so it should work on any browser version) and enjoy the plugin ! 😀😀
