Context Search Autor: Olivier de Broqueville

Context Search

Firefox add-on to search selected text in a web page using your favorite search engines, displayed in the context menu or in an icons grid, or using your preferred AI chat engines and prompts.

If you like this extension and find it useful, please help support its development by considering a modest donation: https://paypal.me/odebroqueville.

Please note that version 6 will remain free whilst in beta, but will ultimately become a paid extension. I will try to keep the extension free for those who have kindly supported its development through a donation.
