GitLab Ninja

About

GitLab Ninja supercharges your GitLab boards with productivity features you didn't know you needed.

✅ Auto-Assignment — Automatically assigns newly created board issues to you
✅ Time Tracking Display — See spent/estimate badges directly on issue cards (color-coded: blue = on track, red = over budget)
✅ Quick Estimates — One-click estimate buttons (1h, 2h, 4h, 1d) on every card
✅ Column Summaries — Total time spent vs. estimated at the top of each board column, with over-budget warnings
✅ Time Estimate Modal — Set estimates without leaving the board
✅ Board Settings — Per-board configuration panel for toggling features
✅ Theme Support — Adapts to your GitLab light/dark theme
