    Important Notes
    • This extension is a frontend client and does not include AI models
    • Performance depends on your hardware and backend server configuration
    
    When you ask the model to use the current page, the extension first tries to talk to its content script on that tab. On tabs where the content script was not already loaded (for example, a tab that was open before the extension was installed or updated), there is no receiver to answer. In that case the extension uses scripting to inject its content script on demand into that single tab, so it can extract the page text and hand it to the model.
    
    This injection is:
    • On demand only — it runs in response to your action, never in the background or on a schedule
    • Scoped to the active tab you are using, not all tabs
    • Limited to reading page content for the request you made
