Developer adds reusable saved tasks to a browser agent, prompts now work across repos

A developer building a DeepSeek-powered browser agent in Chrome's side panel added a feature to save any chat as a reusable task, eliminating repeated prompt writing across sites.
His first saved task, "What should I fix next?", reads a GitHub repo's open issues and comments, summarizes the problems, and ranks what to fix by impact and rough effort. The same task can be re-run on any other repo without rewriting prompts. He notes effort estimates still need human judgment, but the auto-summarized, ranked issue list meaningfully speeds up deciding where to start.
