Sidekick QoL

Sidekick QoL is a lightweight, modular Quality of Life addon for World of Warcraft Retail.

Instead of trying to replace your UI, Sidekick focuses on one thing: making the game smoother. Every module adds small improvements that save clicks, reduce friction, and automate repetitive tasks while staying fast and unobtrusive.

Only the features you enable are loaded. Disabled modules consume no events, no frames and virtually no CPU time.

✨ Available now (v0.3)

🔑 Mythic+

Ready and Pull buttons on the keystone frame when you slot your key (leader only), with a numeric pull duration and a prominent center countdown that DBM and BigWigs pick up.
Great Vault tracker: a weekly summary of your vault progress, shown reliably on login or on demand.
Keystone reminder if your key is still in your bags before you start.
Quick Signup: auto-accepts the premade group signup and the role check, so you apply in one click. Hold Shift to keep the dialog open (e.g. to type a note).
Applicant rating tint: colors each applicant's Mythic+ rating by score tier in the group finder.

☠️ Death & resurrection (Death Rez)

DON'T RELEASE: when you die while a rez is likely and reach for the Release button, the death popup dodges your cursor, a center warning appears, and a sound plays.
Per situation toggles (raid on by default, group, battleground, arena, solo), plus a dodge timeout and dodge limit as a safety valve so you can always release when no rez is coming.
Sound and warning are each toggleable, and it never interferes with accepting a real resurrection.

🎮 Commands

⚡ Design philosophy

Sidekick follows a few simple principles:

Modular by design.
Zero overhead for disabled modules.
No external libraries.
Safe Blizzard API usage (no taint, protected functions are never called or blocked).
Clean and modern configuration interface.
Built for performance first.

❤️ Built for players

Sidekick is developed for players who enjoy a polished UI without installing dozens of tiny addons.

The goal isn't to replace specialized addons like DBM or WeakAuras, but to provide a collection of carefully designed Quality of Life improvements that naturally fit into the default Blizzard interface.
