golemandClaude Opus 5.5 282eeab83d doc: surface the sign-in and send hint
ChatGPT can require signing in, and it does not always send a prefilled
prompt. The README and options panel mentioned pressing Enter only in
passing. Give both a prominent note covering sign-in and Enter or Send,
and drop the inline mentions it replaces.

Changelog

All notable changes to this project will be documented in this file. See commit-and-tag-version.

Unreleased

  • Add an Ask ChatGPT toolbar button: use selected text or open a blank chat, honoring saved prompt and tab/window preferences. No new permissions.
  • Add Off / Simple / Advanced context-menu modes with migration from the old visibility preference. Advanced provides selection presets and link/page URL actions, with optional translation and a preferred language or language dialog.
  • Preserve dedicated action instructions when shortening selections; ask before sending shortened text and reject URLs that cannot be sent intact.
  • Add accessible action dialogs with cancellation and retry, remove the temporary model/effort URL probe, and document URL sharing. No new permissions.
  • Show up front, in the options panel and README, that ChatGPT may require signing in and that an unsent prompt needs Enter or Send.
  • Options instructions now show the configured keyboard shortcut, update when it changes, and indicate when no shortcut is assigned. Added a button to open Firefox’s shortcut editor where supported.
  • Shortened the context menu label to “Ask ChatGPT”.
  • Added quick usage instructions and guidance for changing the search keyword and default engine in Firefox to the options panel.
  • Added a “Feedback or report a bug” link to the options panel and README.

[1.1.0] (2026-07-30)

Adds an options panel and two new ways to reach ChatGPT.

  • Options panel in about:addons with five settings: context menu visibility, temporary chat, web-search hint, where results open, and a prompt template.
  • Right-click selected text and choose "Ask ChatGPT" to open ChatGPT with that text filled in.
  • Keyboard shortcut Alt+Shift+G does the same for the current selection, and opens an empty chat when nothing is selected. Rebindable via Manage Extension Shortcuts.
  • Documented that ChatGPT no longer submits prompts passed in a URL, so a second Enter is needed. This is an upstream change to chatgpt.com.
  • gpt <query> address-bar search is unchanged.
  • The options panel, right-click item, and keyboard shortcut require Firefox 112 or newer. Older versions keep the gpt <query> search unchanged.
  • Permissions added: storage, menus, activeTab. None of them adds a line to Firefox's install prompt.

[1.0.0]) (2024-06-09)

First release of software.

  • favicon - Wanted to use the OpenAI ChatGPT icon but worried about copyright. Without granted permission, have to roll with this icon. (Powered by OpenAI!)
  • Adds ChatGPT as non-default search engine. Queryable by "gpt <search_query>" in user's URL bar. Can configure through browser settings.
