Features

• Copy the full conversation, the latest assistant answer, or selected messages to the clipboard.
• Select messages individually. Filter by user or assistant, select all or none, invert the selection, and expand message previews.
• Export the full conversation or selected messages as Markdown, plain text, JSON, or CSV.
• Optionally download conversation images, including generated images available in the page, and bundle them with Markdown in a ZIP. Markdown links to the image files with relative paths.
• Render supported SVG diagram templates as PNG assets in Markdown exports. Plain-text output uses a [Diagram] placeholder; unsupported templates are kept as provided.
• Save a Markdown export to the exports/ directory of a GitHub repository you choose. Exports with images are saved as a ZIP.
• Set the theme, interface language, message headings and spacing, export timestamps, download prompts, and image bundling.

The interface is available in English, Chinese, German, Spanish, French, and Russian. It can detect a supported browser language and falls back to English otherwise.

Install from source

Use Node.js 22 and npm.

Chrome

npm ci
npm run build:chrome

Open chrome://extensions, enable Developer mode, choose Load unpacked, and select the generated dist/ directory. See Chrome's guide to loading an unpacked extension.

Firefox

Firefox 140 or later is required on desktop; Firefox for Android requires version 142 or later.

npm ci
npm run build:firefox

Open about:debugging, choose This Firefox and Load Temporary Add-on, then select dist-firefox/manifest.json. Firefox removes temporary add-ons when it restarts. See Mozilla's temporary installation guide.

Chrome builds go to dist/; Firefox builds go to dist-firefox/. The output directories are separate.

Development checks

npm run typecheck
npm run test:run
npm run build

The CI workflow runs these checks with Node.js 22. Use npm run build:chrome or npm run build:firefox to create a browser-specific extension.

Privacy

Conversation content is processed by the extension to carry out the action you choose. It is sent to GitHub only when you explicitly save an export there. See the privacy policy; before publishing, host it at a public URL and keep it aligned with the extension's data practices.
