Adds configurable extra keyboard shortcuts, such as hjkl, for rating review cards, optionally revealing the answer first or rating immediately, and adjusting 2/3 key behavior by button count.
Enables keyboard-driven Anki reviewing with hjkl answer keys, front-side grading, configurable shortcuts, hidden or disabled buttons, Pass-Fail mode, answer color coding, zoom controls, and last-grade display.
Adds customizable reviewer hotkeys where H reveals hints one by one and Shift+H reveals all at once.
Displays up to four note fields in clean, customizable boxes after the answer is revealed, with side-by-side or 2×2 layouts, image zoom, and a show/hide hotkey.
Automatically fills Anki note fields using multiple LLM providers, with customizable prompts, batch processing, selective retries, and encrypted backups.
Assigns Anki review actions—answer ratings, show answer, undo, or nothing—to mouse buttons, scroll-wheel movements, and long presses, configurable separately for question and answer sides.
An Anki Desktop add-on that enables keyboard shortcuts (default 1, 2, 3, 4, h) to perform same-key show and rate operations during review, eliminating the need to hit the spacebar on every card.

"question" state.3 or j) intercepts the keypress and triggers the Show Answer (flip) action (showAnswer()), revealing the back side of the card."answer" state.3 or j) routes to the mapped target action:

Default configuration:
{
"hotkeys": {
"1": "1",
"2": "2",
"3": "3",
"4": "4",
"h": "h"
}
}
The keys of the hotkeys object are the triggers on the keyboard. The values represent the target shortcut/action key to run on the back side of the card (e.g., "h" maps to "h"'s default back action, while "1" maps to "1"'s default back action).
If the configuration used a simple list of keys (e.g., ["1", "2", "3", "4", "h"]), it would assume that the key pressed on the front must trigger itself on the back. While this works for standard keys, it breaks down for more advanced layouts:
h to Again, j to Good, and e to Easy in Anki's settings), they can configure {"h": "1", "j": "3", "e": "4"}. Tap h to flip the card, and tap it again to route directly to rating 1 (Again).h to rate 1).The project includes a pytest suite for offline testing of shortcut registrations, state detection, and configurations.
