About

A bring-your-own-key extension for summarizing Hacker News articles with OpenAI, Anthropic, and Ollama LLMs.

The extension will add the summarize buttons to the HN front page and article pages. Just provide your Anthropic or OpenAI API key or Ollama URL and you're good to go.

🔒️ Security note: The API keys are stored in your browser's storage and synced across devices if the browser is configured to do so. They are sent by the extension to the LLM providers only.

The extension is open source, the code can be found <a href="https://github.com/ivanyu/hn-tldr-extension">here</a>
