About

Title: Yt2Summary — YouTube Video Summaries

Short Description
- Summarize YouTube videos under the player. Clean Markdown view, copy/download, saved library, and incognito support.

Full Description
Yt2Summary adds a Summarize button to YouTube and shows an instant, readable summary right under the video. Save summaries for later, copy or download them, and browse your personal library — all inside a lightweight, privacy‑minded extension.

Key Features
- One‑click summaries on YouTube: Button appears near Subscribe.
- Clean reading view: Renders summaries in a Markdown‑styled panel.
- Saved Summaries library: Browse, copy, download, delete.
- Multiple languages: Summarizes from available video captions.
- Private mode: Separate, temporary storage in Incognito (split mode).
- Performance‑friendly: Defers non‑critical work and avoids blocking YouTube.
- Quota indicator: Subtle plan/remaining hints shown on idle/hover.

How It Works
- Open a YouTube video with captions and click Summarize.
- The summary appears below the video in a clean, formatted view.
- Use Saved Summaries (from the popup or link) to revisit, copy, or download.
- Optional sign‑in may be offered for higher limits.

Privacy & Permissions
- Storage: Saves your summaries locally in your browser.
- Scripting & webNavigation: To add the button and summary on YouTube pages.
- Host permissions: Access to YouTube pages and the extension’s API host.
- No tracking on pages outside the sites listed in permissions.

Limitations
- Requires available captions/subtitles for the video.
- Summary quality depends on caption quality and language availability.

What’s New in 1.1
- Saved Summaries library with copy/download and pagination.
- Cleaner Markdown rendering via an embedded view under the video.
- Faster, less intrusive loading on YouTube (idle/hover fetch).
- Separate, temporary storage in Incognito (split mode).
- Small UI polish and link updates.

Get Started
- Install Yt2Summary, open a YouTube video, and click Summarize.
- Visit Saved Summaries from the popup or the link to manage your library.
