It doesn't do much other than modify how Gmail is displayed to you in Chrome. Does it as minimally as possible (that I can engineer). Done locally, no account, no subscription.

Currently built the following settings:

Conversations: * Show newest message first * Show every message in a thread (sometimes they're collapsed into numbered bubbles) * Remove AI overviews (retches)

Layout/UI: * Minimize the search & top bar * Minimize the far left "rail" (Mail/Chat/Meet) * Hide a bunch of extraneous icons/buttons/items * Adjust width of Folders/Labels column (still in-process)

Mini-Automations: * Automatically open to inbox on page start/refresh * Automatically select first message if the reading pane is open (unless unread, or previous message already selected) * Add a recurring reminder (if wanted) to use Gmail's new Manage Subscriptions folder/feature

Bunch more features I'd like to add. Let me know if you think I should change anything. Or if you have any code/bug feedback... :)

jared2campbell@gmail.com17:T4ec,I’ve worked with staffing and recruiting firms for a long time, and one pattern I kept seeing is that small recruiting agencies often end up using software designed for much larger organizations.

Tools like Bullhorn are powerful, but they can be heavy and complex for smaller teams. Many of the agencies I’ve worked with (typically 3–10 recruiters) mostly need to: • post jobs • track candidates through a pipeline • submit candidates to clients • search past applicants

Instead they often end up with systems that require a lot of configuration and administrative overhead.

I built Hire Gnome to explore a simpler approach:
