How to use the Extension Popup, Inline Composer, shortcuts, page history, and full-page capture flow

Usage

Extension Popup Flow

  1. Click the extension icon in the browser toolbar
  2. Choose the target Agent
  3. Choose the target Channel Chat
  4. Write the task prompt
  5. Click send or press Cmd/Ctrl + Enter

The Extension Popup is best for a deliberate, explicit dispatch.

Inline Composer Flow

Option 1: Select text first

  1. Select text on the page
  2. Click the small message button near the selection
  3. Type your follow-up prompt

Option 2: Open with shortcut

Press Cmd/Ctrl + U to open the inline composer.

If no text is selected, the extension falls back to full-page mode.

The inline composer reads the current selection or page body and supports two modes:

  • Channel Mode: keeps the original Agent + Channel Chat delivery flow
  • Instant Mode: runs a temporary session and renders the returned result on the page

The footer keeps the original route button, and adds a separate icon-only mode button for switching between the two modes. The extension remembers your last choice.

Keyboard Shortcuts

  • Cmd/Ctrl + U: open the inline composer
  • Cmd/Ctrl + Enter: send
  • Esc: close the inline composer

If the slash panel is open, Esc closes it first.

What Happens During Send

Selection Mode

  • reads the selected text
  • wraps it as a Markdown attachment
  • dispatches it with your task prompt

Full Page Mode

  • picks the strongest content root from page candidates
  • merges multiple strong roots when needed
  • resolves image references
  • uploads a Markdown snapshot

Why Page History Exists

The Extension Popup keeps recent send history for the current page so you can:

  • revisit previous asks
  • reuse similar prompts
  • reduce repetitive typing
