About

A simple dependency-free side panel extension that lets you chat with your current web page, using local or cloud models.

- Summarize any page: one click to get a concise summary of the current tab
- Ask questions: have a multi-turn conversation grounded in the page content
- Web search: augment your questions with live search results (DuckDuckGo or Brave)
- Screenshot support: send a visual snapshot of the page to vision-capable models
- Attach local files: include a file from your computer alongside the page context
- Markdown rendering: responses render with headers, lists, code blocks, bold/italic, and links
- Export conversations: download the chat or an AI-generated summary as .md or .txt
- Custom system prompt: fully editable with dynamic page and date/time variables
- Configurable timeout: set how long to wait before a slow model is considered unresponsive
- No telemetry or analytics: the extension does not include tracking or analytics code
