Compass Chrome Extension Adds Navigation Tools to Claude and ChatGPT
A developer has released Compass, a Chrome extension designed specifically for Claude and ChatGPT to address navigation issues in long conversations. The tool was built using Claude Code throughout the development process, from brainstorming features to debugging edge cases in content scripts.
Problem Solved
The developer created Compass after experiencing difficulty tracking context in extended Claude chats, including losing track of conversation threads, forgetting previous questions, and constantly scrolling up and down.
Key Features
- Prompt Minimap — A side panel that outlines the entire conversation, allowing users to click and jump to any point instantly
- Sticky Scroll Headers — Keeps prompts pinned at the top of the screen while scrolling through long responses
- Session Checklists — Enables users to tie to-do items directly to conversations to track requirements and follow-ups
- Prompt Builder — Provides structured templates for Coding, Writing, and Learning scenarios to help write better prompts
Technical Details
The extension blends natively into Claude's UI in both light and dark modes. All data is stored locally on the user's device. The developer noted that Claude was particularly helpful in figuring out how to hook into Claude's DOM without breaking on UI updates.
Availability
Compass is completely free to install from the Chrome Web Store. The extension works with both Claude and ChatGPT interfaces.
