The Chrome Web Store rounds user counts down to the leading digit, so the user line moves in steps. The ratings count is exact and is the better signal of real adoption.
About JenKit
JenKit is a focused Jenkins companion for your browser. Keep the jobs you care about pinned in a side panel, trigger a build on any git branch in one click, and watch the live console log stream in a terminal-style view — without bouncing between Jenkins pages.
**Key features**
- **Multi-environment** — Configure multiple Jenkins environments (dev / test / prod), each with its own followed-jobs list. Switch environments from a tab at the top of the side panel.
- **Followed jobs** — Pick the jobs you care about from the full Jenkins job tree (folder-aware, with keyword search). The side panel shows only those.
- **Branch builds** — Click Build, pick a branch from the Git Parameter candidates, and trigger. Jobs that are already building are protected from accidental re-triggers.
- **Parameterized builds** — Full support for the "Build with Parameters" form: string, text, boolean, choice, and password parameters render as the right controls with defaults pre-filled. Active Choices dynamic parameters and cascading dropdowns are supported — candidates refresh as upstream values change.
- **Live console** — After triggering, follow the whole queue → build lifecycle with incremental log output, and see the final result (SUCCESS / FAILURE / ABORTED) when it ends.
- **Build history** — Each job shows its last 5 builds (number, status, branch, time). Click any to view the full log; in-progress builds keep streaming live.
- **Abort** — Stop the current build from the log view, or stop an in-progress build from the history list.
- **Auto-naming** — Sets the Jenkins build display name to "buildNumber--branch" so history is easy to scan.
**Privacy & security**
- **No credentials** — JenKit never stores or transmits your Jenkins username, password, or API token. It reuses your browser's existing Jenkins login session (cookies).
- **Optional passkey protection** — Protect an environment (e.g. prod) with a passkey; the side panel requires verification before showing that environment's jobs. Only a SHA-256 hash of the passkey is stored.
- **Biometric unlock** — Optionally unlock passkey-protected environments with macOS Touch ID or Windows Hello (WebAuthn platform authenticator). The credential never leaves your device and is never exported.
- **Config import / export** — Export your environments and followed jobs to JSON for backup or sharing with teammates. Importing merges by Jenkins URL. (Export files name your Jenkins hosts — treat them as sensitive.)
- **No analytics** — No telemetry, no advertising, no tracking. The extension talks only to the Jenkins hosts you explicitly add and authorize.
**How it works**
1. Log in to your Jenkins in the browser. JenKit reuses that session.
2. Open JenKit options, add an environment (name + Jenkins URL), click "Load jobs", and grant Chrome access to that host.
3. Check the jobs you want to follow (saved automatically). Protect sensitive environments with a passkey.
4. Click the toolbar icon to open the side panel, pick an environment, and build.
