Enhancer for Plane — Chrome extension: issue templates, open work items by key, copy reference, focus mode

[gaerae]

I run Plane for my team and built an unofficial Chrome extension to fix the everyday
frictions we kept hitting. It started with templates; it has grown into a small toolbox.
Works on Plane Cloud and self-hosted, entirely client-side — nothing installed or
changed on the Plane server.

What it does now:

• Quick open — type issue PROJ-123 in the address bar to jump to a work item.
  Also via right-click on a key selected in any text (Slack, PR titles). Targets are
  just URLs with {{key}}, so you can register Jira / Linear / GitHub / GitLab too
  and route by key prefix — handy mid-migration.

• Focus mode — Alt+Shift+F hides the side panels, per tab.

• Style rules — widen truncated module/cycle/label names with one selector+value
  rule. A visual element picker builds the selector for you, no DevTools.

• Copy reference — one click (Alt+C) copies the item as plain text, a Markdown
  link, or a branch name. Formats are editable with {{item.key}}, {{item.title}},
  {{item.url}}.

• Issue templates — a native "Template" button in the description toolbar and the
  create-work-item modal fills the title + a Markdown body in one click (Alt+T).
  Variables like {{date}}, {{date+7}}, {{week}} and up to 5 of your own
  ({{var.name}}) are filled on insert.

• Team template sync — point it at a JSON file on any URL your team can reach
  (intranet, Git raw, S3) and everyone pulls the same templates on a schedule.
  Synced templates are read-only, so the source stays the single place to edit.

Privacy by default: ships inert — no active domains, no host permissions until you
enable it on your Plane site, no accounts, no tracking, no remote code. MIT-licensed.

Two questions for anyone who tries it:

1. What work-item templates does your team actually use? I ship a 26-template example
   pack and would like to make it more realistic.
2. What other paper cuts in the Plane UI should a client-side extension fix next?

Update — quite a lot has shipped since this post, so I've rewritten the description
above to match. The short version of what's new since July:

• Quick open: issue PROJ-123 in the address bar jumps straight to a work item.
  Right-click works on keys found in any text. Jira / Linear / GitHub URLs can be
  registered too, routed by key prefix.
• Copy reference (Alt+C): plain text, Markdown link, or branch name — formats
  are editable.
• Focus mode (Alt+Shift+F): hides the side panels, per tab.
• Team template sync: share templates from a JSON URL; synced sets are read-only.
• Visual element picker for the width rules — no DevTools needed.
• Now tested on Plane Cloud as well as self-hosted.

If you tried an earlier version and something felt missing, I'd genuinely like to
hear what — issues on the repo or replies here both work.
