Perhaps the "External Application Buttons 2" extension at https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/external-application-button/ which is based on the original extension started by Torisugari over ten years ago.

For our users' safety, we do not allow websites to run code that opens an application without the users' consent.
Users can adjust settings to choose which application opens when they attempt to open a file.
Ex. A .pdf file would open with Adobe Reader.
Im not a JS developer, but that would be kinda risky to open files off a computer using a script.
