SideGem2: Chat with any Page using Gemini 2.5

Turn any webpage into a conversation with SideGem. Powered by Google's advanced Gemini 2.5 Flash, this extension acts as your smart sidekick, allowing you to ask questions, extract specific details, and deeply understand content without leaving the tab. This is a "Bring Your Own Key" (BYOK) tool—you control your API usage and privacy.

Key Features:

💬 Interactive Chat Interface: Don't settle for static summaries. Have a full conversation with any webpage. Ask follow-up questions, request clarifications, or explore specific topics in depth.

⚡ Powered by Gemini 2.5: Utilizes the gemini-2.5-flash model for high-speed, accurate reasoning and context-aware answers.

🧠 Smart Context Switching: Answers strictly based on the page content by default. If the answer isn't there, it intelligently asks if you'd like to use its general knowledge instead.

🔒 Privacy-First Design: Your API key and chat history are stored locally in your browser. We have no servers, no tracking, and no hidden data collection.

📝 Rich Formatting: Responses are rendered in clean Markdown with bolding, lists, and code blocks for easy reading.

📋 One-Click Copy: Instantly copy any response to your clipboard with a dedicated button.

🔄 Session Memory: Switch tabs without losing your place—SideGem remembers your conversation for the specific page you are on.

How to use:

Get your Gemini API Key from Google AI Studio (Flash model is currently free within rate limits).

Caution: While the extension is free, usage of the Gemini API is subject to Google's pricing and terms. Ensure you understand your quota at Google AI Studio.

Click the SideGem icon and enter your key once.

Open any webpage and start typing! Ask "What is the main conclusion?" or "List the pricing tiers mentioned."

Privacy Notice: This extension requires permission to read the current page's text only to provide context to the AI. The text is sent directly from your browser to Google's Gemini API for processing. No data is ever sent to the developer or third parties.
