The picoCTF Gen Score Extension is a free add-on designed for the Chrome browser, aimed at enhancing the user experience for picoCTF participants. This tool automatically generates and displays the user's picoCTF score on both the user profile and practice page. It provides a clear and accessible way for users to track their progress in the competition.

The scoring system is straightforward, assigning points based on the difficulty of each solved challenge. Users earn 100 points for easy challenges, 200 points for medium challenges, and 300 points for hard challenges. This feature allows participants to quickly gauge their performance and motivates them to tackle more difficult problems as they advance in the competition.
