Universal CAPTCHA Retry Counter

WHAT IT DOES

Universal CAPTCHA Retry Counter helps you understand your CAPTCHA experience by tracking every attempt you make. The script detects CAPTCHA challenges on any website and displays a visible counter showing how many times you've attempted the CAPTCHA. Color-coded urgency indicators instantly show when you've made too many attempts: green for 1-2 attempts (good progress), yellow for 3-5 (keep trying), orange for 6-10 (several attempts), and red for 10+ (many attempts—consider refreshing). The script tracks your success rate, showing what percentage of CAPTCHAs you've completed successfully. A timer shows how long you've been working on the CAPTCHA, and attempts-per-minute helps you gauge if you're moving too fast. When you successfully complete a CAPTCHA, you'll see a visual success indicator. Helpful tips appear automatically, offering guidance for common CAPTCHA issues based on your attempt count.

WHERE IT RUNS

This script runs on every website (matching all URLs), detecting CAPTCHA challenges across the entire web. It works with reCAPTCHA, hCaptcha, Turnstile, and traditional text/image CAPTCHAs. The script dynamically adapts to pages that load CAPTCHAs after initial page load, catching them as they appear.

HOW TO USE

After installing through the BotGentz extension, simply browse the web as usual. When you encounter a CAPTCHA, the script automatically detects it and begins tracking your attempts. Use the configuration panel to customize your experience: toggle the retry counter on or off, show or hide the timer, enable or disable color-coded urgency, control auto-reset behavior, and show or hide tips. The panel displays real-time statistics including your current attempt count, success rate, time spent, and attempts per minute. Use the "Reset Counter" button to manually clear your attempt history. The counter auto-resets after a configurable period of inactivity to avoid clutter across different sites.

MULTI-STRATEGY CAPTCHA DETECTION WITH EVENT-DRIVEN TRACKING

This script implements a comprehensive CAPTCHA detection engine that uses multiple strategies to identify CAPTCHA challenges. The detection system scans for common CAPTCHA indicators including reCAPTCHA and hCaptcha iframes, data-sitekey attributes, form elements with CAPTCHA-specific names, CSS classes like "g-recaptcha" and "h-captcha", and text content containing CAPTCHA keywords. The event-driven tracking engine monitors form submissions, CAPTCHA refresh button clicks, and checkbox interactions, incrementing the attempt counter when a user attempts to submit or refresh. The verification detection system watches for success indicators like the reCAPTCHA checkbox checked state and success messages in the page content. The timing system calculates elapsed time from first CAPTCHA detection and computes attempts-per-minute rates.

THE PANEL

The configuration panel is fully draggable and remembers its position per-site using GM_setValue. It snaps to screen edges when dragged near them, collapses to a compact bubble when minimized, and supports Escape key for quick collapse. All settings—including counter visibility, timer display, urgency coloring, auto-reset behavior, and tips visibility—are persisted across sessions.

PLEASE NOTE

This script requires the free BotGentz extension to run. The script runs on all websites and may detect CAPTCHA challenges on any page. It tracks only the number of attempts you make and does not capture, store, or transmit any CAPTCHA images, answers, or personal information. All tracking data is stored locally in your browser using GM_setValue and never transmitted to external servers. This tool is designed to help you understand your CAPTCHA experience and is provided for educational purposes only. Some websites may have anti-automation measures; this script does not automate or bypass CAPTCHAs—it only provides visibility into your attempts.
