    I've been bothered for years by the fact there was no Chrome extension to do this workflow easily (right-click > summarize). So I made one myself!

You will need to generate a Gemini API key at https://aistudio.google.com/app/apikey.
Gemini's API is very cheap and you can likely use this project without spending any money.
    I've been bothered for years by the fact there was no Chrome extension to do this workflow easily (right-click > summarize). So I made one myself! (This extension was published before major browsers began supporting this workflow by default. Called it!)

If your device doesn't support using Chrome's built-in local Nano model, the extension's onboarding will guide you to create a Gemini API key at https://aistudio.google.com/app/apikey.
