Research direction
No file, test, or entry point is named. Start by locating the current Script run form and its handling of form values and URLs; define the inclusion, encoding, exclusion, unavailable-object, and oversized-URL behavior before implementation. Done means a Copy link action prefills the form without running or scheduling it, while secrets and execution controls remain excluded.

Description
Plugin Version
v0.0.1
Proposed functionality
Add a Copy link action that turns suitable values in the current run form into a reusable URL. Opening it should prefill the form, never run or schedule the Script.
Define an explicit inclusion and encoding policy, including multi-select values. Exclude secrets, uploaded file contents, and execution controls; not every text field is safe to share. Explain that URLs may appear in browser history, logs, and messages.
Do not rewrite the URL continuously while someone types. Handle unavailable objects and oversized URLs clearly. Saved server-side presets remain separate work.
Use case
Teams could share a prepared form or add it to a runbook without building query strings by hand. The recipient would still review the inputs and decide whether to run the Script.
