LegendKeeper Tweaks
A Chrome extension that adds quality-of-life tweaks to LegendKeeper, the worldbuilding wiki for tabletop games and fiction: page tabs, tag shortcuts, a Project Browser filter that keeps your tree intact, cover images as page icons, bulk page settings, recent pages and more.
It mostly changes how LegendKeeper looks and behaves in your browser. The one exception is Set for subpages, which changes page settings in your world, and only after you review and confirm it.
This repo also holds two companion tools for working on LegendKeeper with Claude: an MCP server and a Claude skill for the LegendKeeper SDK.
About this project
I'm a software developer, but this is very much a vibe-coded project. It isn't trying to replace anything in LegendKeeper or be a permanent part of it. It's a collection of tweaks and quality-of-life changes that I find really useful day to day.
Everything here is about usability: making LegendKeeper easier and quicker to get around, and easier to filter. It doesn't add new content or content features. That's deliberate, and it's the rule for what goes in (see Contributing).
Features
Tabs
Page tabs. A tab bar along the top of the page content, so you can keep several pages open and switch in one click. The Project Browser on the left keeps its full height, and the page's sidebar on the right sits below the tabs.
- Navigating normally changes the page in the current tab, like a browser.
- Middle-click any page link (Project Browser, @mentions, backlinks…) to open it in a new tab, or right-click a page in the tree and choose Open in new tab.
- Opening a page that's already in a tab switches to that tab.
- Pin a tab by right-clicking it. Pinned tabs sit at the front of the bar with a pin instead of ×, and keep their page: anything you open from a pinned tab (a link, the Project Browser, search) opens in a new tab next to it. Handy for a session plan or map you keep coming back to. The same menu has Close tab and Close other tabs (pinned tabs stay).
- Close a tab with × or a middle-click. Drag tabs to reorder them; a bar on each side of the gap shows where it will land.
- Style: Pills (default), Filled, Minimal or Underline. In every style the active tab is bold, and suggested and recent pages stay faint.
- Tabs are remembered per project, so they survive a reload.
- Adaptive width (on by default): each tab fits its name, up to the standard width; longer names end in "…".
- Optionally, suggested and/or recent pages fill the rest of the bar as faint tabs; click one to open it as a real tab at the end of the bar. Suggestions follow the active tab's page. When both are in the bar, suggestions come first and are marked with a ✦ after the name.
Pages
Set for subpages. Right-click a page in the Project Browser and choose Set for subpages… to change settings on that page and everything under it, in one go:
| Group | Settings |
|---|
| Layout | Full-width, Table of contents |
| Access | Lock, Hide |
| Sidebar | Show sidebar by default, Sidebar scrolling |
| Icon | Icon (Font Awesome name, e.g. dragon) and icon colour (shown on map pins and in collection lists) |
| Tags | Add tags to every page (comma-separated, suggestions from your existing tags) or remove tags; pages that already have / lack them are skipped |
| Sidebar blocks | Add a block (Tags, Image, Properties, Text, Aliases, Backlinks or Collection) to every page's sidebar, optionally skipping pages that already have one; remove every block with a given title (e.g. "Facts") |
Each setting starts on Leave; only the ones you switch to On, Off or Set are changed. Removing blocks deletes them and their contents, so before anything is deleted the dialog shows how many blocks on how many pages and asks you to click again. Pages that already have the value are skipped. Changes go through the same LegendKeeper functions its own page menu (⋮) uses, one page at a time, with progress shown. Permissions are deliberately not included.
Reading time. Longer pages (300+ words) show "4 min read · 900 words" at the end of the title row.
Block handle size. A slider for the grip you drag content blocks by, from 0.75× to 2× in quarter steps.
Project Browser
LegendKeeper's left-hand panel (Project / Templates / Assets). "Sidebar" in LegendKeeper means the panel on the right of a page.
Tag shortcuts. Pin tags next to LegendKeeper's own shortcuts and filter by them with one click.
- To pin a tag, drag it onto the filter area at the top of the Project Browser. You can drag from:
- the selected-tag pills under the filter box
- the options in the tag filter dropdown
- the tags on a page (drag one over the Project Browser and let go; LegendKeeper's own tag reordering still works)
- Click a pinned tag to filter by it, and click again to clear.
- Shift-click or ⌘-click to combine several tags.
- Drag pinned tags to reorder them. Hover and click ×, then Remove?, to unpin.
- Each pinned tag shows how many pages carry it (can be switched off).
- Pinned page specific tags (off by default): each pinned page in LegendKeeper's shortcut bar gets its own pinned tags. Clicking that shortcut switches to its tags (just visiting the page doesn't), and any active filter tags from the previous page's pins turn off; tags you picked from the search box stay. With no pinned page selected you get your original pins.
- Tag new pages (on by default): while you're filtering by a pinned tag, pages you create get that tag, so they don't vanish from the filtered tree. Tags the page already has (from a template, say) are kept.
- When a pinned tag is active, LegendKeeper's duplicate tag pill under the filter box is hidden; the pinned tag shows as selected instead.
Pins are saved per project, in this browser only.
