Me @ GitHub

A Chrome extension that helps you easily find and navigate to every place you've been mentioned in GitHub issues, pull requests, and discussions.

Features

📊 Mention Counter: Displays a badge next to the issue/PR number showing the total count of mentions
📌 Sticky Counter: Shows a floating counter in the top-right corner when scrolling down the page
📋 Quick Navigation: Click the counter to see a dropdown list of all mentions with context
🎯 Jump to Mention: Click any item in the list to scroll directly to that mention
⬅️➡️ Prev/Next Controls: Hover over any highlighted mention to see navigation buttons (stay visible longer for easier use)
🔄 Dynamic Updates: Automatically detects new mentions when "load more" content is added
🎨 GitHub-styled UI: Seamlessly integrates with GitHub's interface (supports both light and dark modes)
