✅Great extension for AI users! 🤖
It simplifies the process of loading prompts through the right-click menu. Definitely worth a try!

Works good for my use case as a helpdesk technician, you can add text snippets and paste them everywhere very easily.
The big downside at the moment is I cant use the restore function to export my snippets. It makes a json file but cant make it to add it back on a new browser so im kinda stuck in the place where I first created all my snippets.

2023-09-28 - My Snippets dissapeared today and I cannot restore them from any of my backups. It doesn't look like the restore option is working at all (I've created new snips and then attempted to restore them). I think a change in Edge might have broke it as it happened after an Edge update
