Troubleshooting

"This page does not look like a normal article"

The extractor couldn't find article content. This happens on dashboards, feeds, or dynamic pages. Try scrolling to load all content, then retry.

API Errors / Timeouts

• Wait and retry
• Check your API key and billing status at Anthropic Console
• Switch to a shorter summary mode to reduce cost and latency

Nothing Happens When I Click the Icon

• Verify the extension is enabled
• Some pages (Chrome Web Store, browser internal pages) don't allow extensions

Privacy

When summarizing, the extension sends to the Claude API:

• Page title
• Page URL
• Extracted article text

Your API key is stored locally and only sent to Anthropic for API calls. Do not use on content you don't want sent to a third-party API.
