Introduction

Google Cloud Skills Boost Helper is a browser extension that enhances your experience on Google Cloud Skills Boost. It tracks Arcade points, manages multiple accounts, surfaces leaderboard data, and helps you find lab solutions — all without leaving the platform.

Key Features

🎯 Arcade Points Calculator — Automatically fetches and calculates your total Arcade points, including Facilitator Program bonuses, with a live countdown to the current season deadline.

👥 Multi-Account Management — Switch between multiple profiles without logging out. Each account maintains its own snapshot of arcade data.

📊 Leaderboard & Scoreboard — View your ranking at a glance and toggle leaderboard visibility on demand.

🔍 Lab Solution Search — Fuzzy-matches the current lab name against a solutions database and surfaces a direct link, with fallback search via Google or YouTube.
