I built a Chrome extension to bulk-download Gmail attachments as a ZIP
First let me say english is not my main lenguage so i asked Claude to help me write this message in order to make it more understandable
I don't work in tech and I can't code at all, but I needed a way to bulk-download attachments from specific Gmail threads and didn't trust random extensions with my Gmail access. So I asked Claude to help me build my own.
What it does: searches Gmail by subject keyword, filters by the last N days, and packages all attachments into a ZIP.
The catch: it requires setting up a Google Cloud project for OAuth. Not hard, but not one-click either — the README explains it for non-developers.
Maybe useful to someone in a similar situation.

The most secure extension you'll ever install — because you built it yourself.
Be gentle, I'm very much a civilian here 😅
