## Description

BetterKeka helps prevent accidental weekly timesheet submissions and makes your daily Keka workflow smarter and more efficient.

In many teams, users mistakenly submit their weekly timesheets too early — locking entries and requiring admin intervention to fix. BetterKeka solves that with
  multiple layers of protection, and goes further with a real-time work progress dashboard, leave visibility, smart save validation, and more.

<strong>Timesheet Protection</strong>
  - 5-layer submit lock — hides the Submit Weekly button completely on non-allowed days (CSS, JS, click blocking, and API interception)
  - Single confirmation step on allowed days so you never submit by accident
  - Configurable unlock day (default: Friday)
  - Visible banner when the extension is disabled so you know you are unprotected

<strong>Work Progress &amp; Goals</strong>
  - Real-time weekly and daily effective hours tracked in the popup
  - Leave By Time — shows exactly when you can leave (e.g. "Leave by 6:30 PM") based on clock-in time and a 9-hour daily target
  - Custom weekly goal with automatic Monday reset — a one-off adjustment never carries into the next week
  - Leave-aware goal — reduces your weekly target by 9h per approved leave day automatically
  - Live clock ticker — today's worked hours update in real time while clocked in

<strong>Leave Visibility</strong>
  - Upcoming approved leaves shown at a glance in the popup with Full Day, First Half, and Second Half labels

<strong>Reminders &amp; Warnings</strong>
  - Configurable clock-out reminders delivered as browser notifications or an in-page modal
  - Gated clock-out — a 2-step confirmation guards against accidental clock-outs
  - Exit warning when leaving Keka without clocking out

<strong>Timesheet UX</strong>
  - Today column highlight — animated border marks today's column on the timesheet grid
  - Smart save validation — warns before saving if hours exceed 8h or are logged in the wrong day
  - Task date picker shortcut — "Set to today" fills both dates instantly
  - Enhanced comment dialog — larger by default and freely resizable

<strong>Project Pages</strong>
  - Persistent "Assigned to" filter remembered across navigation
  - Order By dropdown for instant task sorting

<strong>Appearance</strong>
  - Light, Dark, and Auto (system) theme support

<strong>Privacy &amp; Performance</strong>
  - Does not interact with Keka's servers or APIs in any way
  - No data collected or transmitted externally
  - Lightweight with no performance impact
  - Works immediately after install — no page refresh needed
