Chrome extension rebuilds Jira worklogs from issue changelog history

A developer built a Chrome extension that reads Jira issue changelogs to reconstruct when tickets were assigned and in working statuses, then turns that into draft worklogs. The tool estimates time from status and assignee transitions rather than tracking activity, so nothing is posted automatically and every draft is reviewed first. The changelog only records changes, so the approach reconstructs earlier states by walking the history backwards from the current state. Working windows, daily caps, and splitting time across overlapping tickets are applied, with entries rounded to 30-minute blocks while keeping daily totals consistent.
