GitHub - Copy as Markdown

Adds a 'Copy as markdown' button to every GitHub comment, issue, and pull request.

Stop manually re-formatting code blocks and links. GitHub Copy as Markdown seamlessly adds a native-feeling "Copy as Markdown" option to the (...) three-dot menu of every comment on any issue or pull request. Whether you are moving a discussion to a new ticket, quoting a comment in a different app (like Slack, Jira, or Notion), or just saving snippets for later, this extension ensures you get the exact raw Markdown, not broken text. 🔥 Key Features: - Universal Support: Works on Issues, Pull Requests, Reviews, Discussions, and main descriptions. - Smart Formatting - Code Blocks: Preserves language syntax (e.g., ```javascript```). - Task Lists: correctly formats checked -[x] and unchecked -[ ] boxes. - Links & Images: Keeps the original Markdown syntax. - Native Integration: Injects a button directly into GitHub's existing "..." three-dot dropdown menus. It looks and feels like a built-in feature. Works Everywhere: - ✅ Logged in or Logged out.. - ✅ Open or Closed/Merged PRs. - ✅ New React-based views and legacy views. - ✅ Locked threads where "Quote reply" is disabled. 🚀 How to use: 1. Click the (...) three-dot menu on any GitHub comment or description. 2. Select "Copy as markdown". 3. The raw Markdown is instantly copied to your clipboard. 4. You will see a green flash on the comment visually confirming the copy. 🔒 Privacy & Permissions: - "clipboardWrite": Required to save the text to your clipboard. - "activeTab" / Host Permissions: Required to detect GitHub pages and insert the button. - No Tracking: This extension runs entirely locally in your browser. No data is sent to any external server.
