Extension summary

Generate a magic link for your PR and post it on a shared Slack channel, to entice reviewers to pick up your PR faster!

⚡️ WorkerB will notify you when a reviewer visits your PR so you can collaborate to speed things along. 💡 More reviewer action notifications are available when your team members use the extension (when review starts 🏁, on comments 💬, when the review is finished ✅ and more).

The average pull request review takes 4 days! (source: study of 26K devs and 733K PRs). When your teammates don't know anything about your PR, it's more likely they'll leave it sitting. The WorkerB Chrome extension gives your team context about your PR so they pick it up and review it faster, which helps you merge faster.

With one click you'll have a magic link that displays:

💥 Estimated review time based on PR size, files changed and number of commits and on our analysis of over 733K PRs.

🔥 Custom notes about the related ticket, release and other context your reviewers need

❤️ You can add a gif to your message to get their attention and make things a little more fun
