Version 1.3.0 (manifest "1.3"): the options page rewrite adds features without breaking changes, and addons.mozilla.org needs a version above the live 1.2. The lockfile's root version moves with it. Unreleased becomes the 1.3.0 section. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

# Changelog
|
||
|
||
All notable changes to this project will be documented in this file. See [commit-and-tag-version](https://github.com/absolute-version/commit-and-tag-version).
|
||
|
||
## [1.3.0] (2026-10-18)
|
||
|
||
- Use the extension's bundled icon for the ChatGPT search engine.
|
||
- Rewrite the options page for first-time users: usage instructions with a
|
||
small drawing for each way to use the extension, a preview of the Advanced
|
||
right-click menu, plainer wording, and the prompt template, temporary chat,
|
||
and web search settings under More options. Hotkeys are written as
|
||
`<Ctrl>+L`, with Mac key names on a Mac.
|
||
- Correct the keyword instructions: a custom keyword works alongside `gpt`
|
||
rather than replacing it.
|
||
|
||
## [1.2.0] (2026-10-18)
|
||
|
||
The first update on addons.mozilla.org since 1.0. It also delivers everything
|
||
in 1.1.0, which was never published there.
|
||
|
||
- Add an Ask ChatGPT toolbar button: use selected text or open a blank chat,
|
||
honoring saved prompt and tab/window preferences. No new permissions.
|
||
Requires Firefox 112 or newer, like the other new entry points.
|
||
- 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.
|
||
- Stay responsive with very large selections from the shortcut or toolbar: only
|
||
the part that can fit in the ChatGPT link is processed.
|
||
- 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.
|
||
- Limit the prompt template to 1,000 characters, so an oversized template can
|
||
no longer stop every other setting from saving.
|
||
- Show the configured keyboard shortcut in the options instructions, updating
|
||
when it changes and indicating when none is assigned, with a button to open
|
||
Firefox’s shortcut editor where supported.
|
||
- Shorten the context menu label to “Ask ChatGPT”.
|
||
- Add quick usage instructions and guidance for changing the search keyword
|
||
and default engine in Firefox to the options panel.
|
||
- Add 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.
