skiffr

The extension

Install it, connect it to your api, and what it does on a page.

The extension is a Manifest V3 Chrome extension. There is no Chrome Web Store listing and no release yet, so you build it or take a CI build, and load it unpacked. It needs Chrome 142 or a Chromium browser of the same age.

Install

Build it from the repo:

pnpm --filter extension build

In chrome://extensions turn on developer mode, choose Load unpacked and pick apps/extension/.output/chrome-mv3.

Or take a CI build: every pull request uploads extension-chrome-pr-<number> and every push to main uploads extension-chrome-latest, from the CI runs. GitHub login is required and artifacts expire. Unzip the download, extract the inner extension-<version>-chrome.zip into an empty folder and load that folder unpacked.

Connect it

  1. In the dashboard open Extension and create a token
  2. In the extension options set the api url (http://localhost:3001 locally) and paste the token
  3. Press test connection

Save your profile in the dashboard first: a fill without one stops with a message.

Use it

On an application form (Greenhouse, Lever, Ashby, Workable, Workday and other common systems, also inside iframes) a toast asks "Autofill this application?":

  • Yes fills the form
  • No closes the toast
  • Don't ask on this site stops the toast on that site

Ctrl+Shift+F (Cmd+Shift+F on macOS) fills the current page without the toast. Remap it at chrome://extensions/shortcuts.

For each field the extension takes the first answer it has: what you filled on this very form before, then a saved answer for the same question, then a language model that maps the field to a key of your profile (needs a provider key, see environment). Fields the model is unsure about are filled and outlined in amber. An answer from a similar question is never filled by itself, the empty field is outlined as a suggestion. When it is done the toast says how many fields were filled and how many are outlined.

It never submits a form, never clicks submit, next or apply buttons, and never touches password or hidden inputs. You review the form and press the button.

After a fill the extension records what you corrected, cleared or left as filled, when you submit, leave the page or stop editing for 5 minutes (at most 3 batches per session). Sensitive fields are never sent, and forms with more than 60 learnable fields only record the first 60. The details and limits are in how skiffr learns. What is sent where is in privacy.
