Description

MonkeyTag

Not compatible with Colorful Tags

MonkeyTag enhances the Anki Browser sidebar by turning your tag tree into a quick visual dashboard. It adds a heatmap icon next to each tag that shows how much of that tag is currently unsuspended, making it easy to spot which areas of your collection are active and which are mostly buried.

The heatmap also works with nested tags, so parent tags reflect the overall state of their descendants. In addition, MonkeyTag lets you assign custom text colors to important tags, making high-priority categories stand out at a glance.

The add-on also includes convenient right-click actions for suspending or unsuspending all cards in a tag directly from the sidebar, along with a manual heatmap refresh option.

Features

  • Adds a heatmap to Browser sidebar tags based on the percentage of cards that are currently unsuspended
  • Supports nested tags, including parent tag aggregation
  • Shows heatmap percentages in the tag tooltip
  • Lets you assign custom text colors to individual tags
  • Automatically bolds colored tags so they are easier to spot
  • Automatically bolds parent tags when they contain colored child tags
  • Adds right-click actions to suspend or unsuspend all cards in a tag
  • Includes manual heatmap refresh and toggle options
  • Uses incremental updates for fast performance when suspending and unsuspending cards
