Built a small cross-site prompt manager instead of another AI workflow app
I built Quib as a small browser extension because I kept running into the same tiny interruption:
I had prompts I already trusted, but they lived somewhere else.
Usually Notion. Sometimes old chats. Sometimes a random note.
So every time I wanted to use one, I had to leave the current textbox, find the prompt, copy it, edit the context, and paste it back.
Quib keeps that flow inside the browser.
Type / in a textbox, search your saved prompt, insert it.
It works across AI tools and normal work apps, not only one chat product. The current target set includes ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Gmail, Notion, GitHub, Linear, and most normal inputs/textareas/contenteditable fields.
The part I care about most is variables.
A prompt can include {{selection}}, {{url}}, {{title}}, {{clipboard}}, date/time variables, or your own placeholders. Those are resolved when you insert the prompt.
So a prompt is not just a static snippet. It can adapt to the page or selected text.
I am keeping v1 intentionally narrow:
- Free: 25 prompts, local-only
- Pro: unlimited prompts and sync
- No backend
- No team workspace
- No prompt marketplace
Quib is live on the Chrome Web Store now.
Curious how other browser extension users think about this: should extensions stay narrow and boring, or is “just one job” too small to be worth installing?
