# Add-ons listing for 1.3
|
||
|
||
Status: implemented on `docs/24-amo-listing-add-screenshots-and-a` (#24). The
|
||
paste-ready text and captions are in [`docs/amo/`](../../amo/README.md), along
|
||
with the page that renders the images.
|
||
|
||
## Problem
|
||
|
||
The AMO listing had no screenshots, and its description covered only the `gpt`
|
||
keyword. It never mentioned right-click, the keyboard shortcut, or the toolbar
|
||
button. The listing is where newcomers decide to install and first learn how to
|
||
use the extension.
|
||
|
||
## Decisions
|
||
|
||
- **Tone: clear, with one joke.** The copy gives plain steps for newcomers. A
|
||
general cat joke ("gpt why does my cat knock things over?") replaces the old
|
||
programmer joke ("sudo make me a sammich"), and the images share the cat
|
||
theme.
|
||
- **Say it is small.** Customization without bloat is what sets this extension
|
||
apart, so the description has a "Small on purpose" section: about 56 KB, no
|
||
libraries, no server, no API key, no intermediary, and nothing reported to
|
||
us. These are the README's privacy claims; nothing new is claimed.
|
||
- **Drawings as screenshots.** The images are the options page's drawings,
|
||
enlarged and rendered by headless Firefox:
|
||
- They are part of the extension's own UI.
|
||
- They stay sharp and on brand.
|
||
- They can be regenerated after UI changes.
|
||
|
||
Real screenshots would show OS-specific menus and go stale. A real
|
||
screenshot of the options page is suggested as a sixth image, taken by the
|
||
maintainer, because one genuine screenshot builds trust in the rest.
|
||
- **AMO's guidance.** Images are 1280×800, the size AMO recommends and its
|
||
largest display size, and carry no added text. Explanations go in each image's
|
||
caption.
|
||
- **The copy rule holds.** ChatGPT opens with the text filled in; it is never
|
||
sent, searched, or asked. Temporary chat and web search are described as
|
||
hints, and "private", "incognito", and "secure" appear nowhere near temporary
|
||
chat.
|
||
- **Branding stays.** The name's "powered by OpenAI" and the extension's own
|
||
icon follow OpenAI's brand guidelines: no OpenAI logo on unofficial software,
|
||
and only the phrases the guidelines allow. The description's "unofficial"
|
||
line complements them.
|
||
- **Correction from the draft.** The description does not say ChatGPT opens "in
|
||
a new tab": `gpt` searches open in the current tab, and the other ways follow
|
||
the Open ChatGPT in setting.
|
||
|
||
## Files
|
||
|
||
- `docs/amo/README.md`: summary, description (Markdown, which AMO has used
|
||
instead of HTML since March 2025), captions in
|
||
upload order, and how to regenerate the images.
|
||
- `docs/amo/screenshots.html`: the drawing markup at 1280×800, one image per
|
||
`#fragment`, styled by `options/options.css`.
|
||
- `docs/amo/screenshots/*.png`: the five rendered images. They are generated
|
||
and git-ignored rather than committed, so the repository carries no binaries
|
||
and needs no Git LFS. The command to produce them is in the README.
|
||
|
||
`docs/` is excluded from the extension package, so none of this ships to users.
