What is Clip To Dynalist?
Clip To Dynalist is a tools-packed Chrome extension conceived for facilitating efficient bookmarking into Dynalist. By transforming the active tab title and URL into markdown, it's able to copy the formatted information to the clipboard. It then naturally transitions to the first identified Dynalist tab within the active window. No Dynalist tab? No issue, as a new tab is automatically created. Moreover, it even features a convenient 'Toggle Last Tab' function which can be activated using a secondary keyboard shortcut.

Thanks for a wonderful simple extension! I used the one for Workflowy which you created, which was very helpful. When I moved over to Dynalist, I'm so glad that you created a similar extension for DL! Keep up the excellent work!

I keep my Dynalist in a separate window, so this extension always opens a duplicate instance in a new tab in the current window. This extension also lacks the ability to capture highlighted text or configure the formatting template of the resulting item, both of which the official extension has. I do like the use of the clipboard to buffer the item so I can choose where to paste it after clipping (rather than have to set the inbox before clipping), but that is the only thing this extension has over the official one.
