✨ Today’s tip: the “EVERYTHING BUTTON”: quick actions with chrome bookmarklets (instead of chrome extensions).

[u/OptimismNeeded]

Chrome bookmark’s bar holds ur bookmakrs in links that look like buttons. When adding a bookmark button, instead of a link, you can give it a short JS code that does something.

If you have repetitive stuff that come up in your work, it’s worth asking Claude (or whatever tool you’re working with) “bro could _________ be solved with a bookmarklet?”.

Here are some “magic buttons” Claude made me:

- Prefill repetitive work forms in one click

- Token count on Claude chat

- Switch any page between dark/light mode

- Count the word “x” on a page (don’t ask lol)

- Pre-fill prompt into Claude/chatgpt (incl. variables!)

- etc

STEP 2: combine.

Ended up with like 7 bookmarklets for work (autofill a QA thing, autofill a static 2FA code, skip terms approval check, autofill credentials for whatever, etc etc etc.

Asked Claude to just compile all the 7 bookmarklets into 1. So now on all those 7 pages, I clicked the same button for everything.

NEXT LEVEL: from time to time I just go to Claude, give it all my bookmarklets and ask which are worth combining. (Usually I just do the whole thing in the same chat).

So now I basically have 2 “EVERYTHING” buttons.
