  ## Detailed description
  
  Wilee is a radial gesture menu that turns every browser shortcut into a mouse flick — built for one-handed use and pure speed.
  
  Hold. Flick. Release.
  
  Press and hold a mouse button. A radial menu appears around your cursor with context-aware actions. Flick toward the one you want and release. The action fires instantly — no clicking, no hunting through menus.
  
  AI ACTIONS (powered by OpenAI)
  Highlight text, flick to AI, and get a summary, explanation, translation, or grammar fix — all without leaving the page. AI processing happens server-side through our API; no API key or account needed. Selected text is sent to our server, relayed to OpenAI, and discarded immediately — nothing is stored.
  
  FEATURES
  • 37+ built-in actions: copy, paste, cut, undo, redo, back, forward, refresh, new tab, close tab, last tab, audio tab, scroll to top/bottom, search selected text, save image, share, screenshot, and more
  • Context detection: the menu adapts to what's under your cursor — selected text, an image, a link, or an empty page
  • 6 menu layouts: Radial 8, Radial 4, Arc, Grid 3×3, Radial 8×2 (16 slots), and Honeycomb
  • 7 visual themes: Luxe, Frosted, Ghost, Spectrum, Minimal, Transparent, and High Contrast
  • Automations: chain multiple actions into a single gesture (e.g. select all → copy)
  • Site rules: override bindings per domain
  • Modes: save entire binding profiles and switch between them
  • Keyboard alternative: Ctrl+Shift+Space opens the menu without a mouse hold
  
  ACCESSIBILITY
  • Designed for one-handed browsing and motor-limited users
  • High Contrast theme for low vision (WCAG-informed)
  • Slot number overlays for keyboard navigation
  • Grid layout with larger hit targets for reduced fine-motor demands
  
  PRIVACY
  • No account required
  • No tracking, no analytics, no cookies
  • Settings sync via Chrome's built-in storage
  • AI actions relay selected text through our server to OpenAI — nothing is logged or stored
  • Full privacy policy: https://wilee.app/privacy

  ## Single-purpose description (for Chrome review)
  
  This extension provides a radial gesture menu activated by holding a mouse button. It lets users execute common browser actions (copy, paste, navigate, search, etc.) through directional flick gestures, replacing the need for keyboard shortcuts or nested menus.
  
  ---
  
  ## Permission justifications
  
  ### storage
  Saves user preferences (layout, theme, bindings, site rules, modes) via chrome.storage.sync so settings persist across devices.
  
  ### downloads
  Powers the Screenshot gesture action, which captures the visible viewport and saves it as a PNG file.
  
  ### Host permissions (<all_urls>)
  The gesture menu must be available on every website. The content script injects a transparent overlay to detect the hold-and-flick gesture and render the radial menu. No page content is read or transmitted. The only exception is when the user explicitly selects text and triggers an AI action — only the selected text is sent to our server.
  
  ---
  
  ## Privacy practices (for Chrome Web Store form)
  
  - Does the extension collect personal data? No
  - Does the extension transmit data to remote servers? Yes — only when the user explicitly triggers an AI action on selected text. The text is sent to our server (wilee-api.vercel.app), relayed to OpenAI's API, and discarded immediately. Nothing is logged or stored.
  - Does the extension use remote code? No
  - Does the extension use analytics or tracking? No
  - Does the extension use cookies? No

  Every shortcut. One hand.
  
  Wilee is the radial mouse gesture menu for Chrome. Hold the mouse, flick toward an action, release. That's it — a Chrome mouse gesture extension built for one-handed browsing and pure speed.
  
  No hotkeys to memorize. No stroke patterns to learn. Just one direction, one flick, one result.
  
  HOW IT WORKS
  1. Hold — right-click or side button. The radial menu appears in 200ms.
  2. Flick — drag toward the action. Direction is enough; precision isn't needed.
  3. Release — the action fires. After a week the menu fades from your awareness. Just gesture and result.
  
  CONTEXT-AWARE
  The same gesture does different things depending on what's under your cursor:
  - On text — copy, paste, cut, find
  - On a link — open in new tab, copy URL, open in background
  - On an image — save, copy, search by image
  - On empty page — back, forward, scroll top/bottom, new tab, close
  
  AI TEXT ACTIONS
  Highlight text, flick to AI, and get a summary, explanation, translation, or grammar fix — all without leaving the page. Included with Wilee, no API key needed.
  
  INCLUDED (FREE FOREVER)
  - 37 built-in actions covering navigation, text editing, tab management, and more
  - Context detection across text, links, images, and pages
  - 6 menu layouts: Radial 8, Radial 8×2, Radial 4, Arc, Grid 3×3, Honeycomb
  - 7 visual themes: Luxe, Frosted, Ghost, Spectrum, Minimal, Transparent, and High Contrast
  - AI text actions: summarize, explain, translate, fix grammar
  - Automations — chain multiple actions into a single gesture
  - Site rules — override bindings per domain
  - Modes — save entire binding profiles and switch between them
  - Configurable trigger: right-click, side button, middle-click, left-click, or Ctrl+Shift+Space
  
  Pro adds more layouts, themes, triggers, and automation depth. Details at wilee.app.
  
  BUILT FOR ONE-HANDED USE
  Wilee was designed first for people whose hands don't always cooperate — RSI and wrist pain, injury or surgery recovery, holding a baby, permanent motor limitations.
  
  If you have a motor disability, Pro is always free. One toggle in Settings. No documentation, no proof required.
  
  WHY RADIAL, NOT STROKES
  Stroke-based gesture extensions ask you to draw L-shapes, S-curves, or zigzags — precision and memorization. Radial gestures only need direction. Flick up, flick right, done. Faster to learn, faster to execute, easier on your wrist.
  
  WHO IT'S FOR
  - One-handed users (permanent or temporary)
  - People with RSI, carpal tunnel, or wrist pain
  - Developers, writers, and researchers who live in the browser
  - Data entry workers running 10,000+ keystrokes per day
  - Parents and caregivers
  - Power users who want every shortcut in their mouse hand
  
  PRIVACY
  Wilee does not use tracking, analytics, cookies, or advertising. Your gesture settings stay in your browser using Chrome storage.
  
  AI text actions are optional. When you highlight text and choose an AI action, only that selected text is sent to Wilee's server and relayed to OpenAI to generate the response. The text is not logged, stored, sold, or used for advertising.
