Overview

Group, de-duplicate and auto-close tabs with rules. Recipes for GitHub PRs, OAuth callbacks and Meet calls, or write your own.

Tabchef manages your tabs with recipes: ready-made rules you can read, turn on with one switch, and customize. GROUP Put tabs into Chrome tab groups by URL, title or GitHub repo, with the names, colors and order you choose. Groups stay in that order, even after a restart. DE-DUPLICATE Open a page you already have open and Tabchef closes the new tab and switches you to the existing one. A pull request's Files, Commits and Checks pages count as the pull request itself. CLOSE FINISHED TABS Turn on the Finished recipe and OAuth callback pages, redirect pages you list, and Google Meet tabs after the call has ended close on their own. Pinned and locked tabs are never closed, and a tab with unsaved form edits is never closed without asking. MERGED PULL REQUESTS Connect GitHub and the Merged tab lists your open pull request tabs that have merged, so you can close them in one click, or have them close on their own. JIRA TICKETS AND THEIR PULL REQUESTS Group a Jira ticket's tab with the pull requests that name its key in their title or branch. The Projects tab and the side panel show each ticket with its status and pull requests, and offer to close the group once the ticket is done. RECIPES Turn on a bundle of rules with one switch: Duplicates, Finished, GitHub pull requests, Merged PRs, and Jira ticket projects. Customize any rule in the form editor, or write your own, and keep your own rules in named sections you can collapse and move. SEE WHAT CHANGES, AND WHY Before a settings change moves or closes tabs, a preview shows exactly what will happen. History lists what was grouped or closed and by which rule, and "Why is this tab here?" names the rule behind any open tab. PRIVACY Your rules and tab data stay in your browser, and settings sync through your Chrome account. Tabchef has no servers and no analytics. If you connect GitHub or Jira, Tabchef asks those services directly from your browser for the state of the pull requests and tickets in your open tabs; tokens stay in this browser.
