Hundreds of other use cases!
How It Works
AI Agents configured for the Chrome Extension use the Browser Extension run mode.
When you launch the Agent from your extension dock, it gains access to a set of launch variables pulled from the current page:
url
– The full URL of the current pagemetadata
– Metadata from the page (e.g., title, description tags)pageContent
– The main readable text content of the page (or transcript if YouTube)fullText
– The entire body text (broader thanpageContent
)userSelection
– Any text the user has highlightedrawHtml
– The full HTML of the page
The Agent uses these values as context to power its workflow. The output is rendered directly inside the extension sidebar — giving you instant results without switching tabs or copying content.
