WHEN A LINK NEEDS A BROWSER
Bring the snapshot
with you.
Some public share pages cannot be read automatically. The AIRef helper reads the text and code already loaded in your browser and downloads a JSON file for you to review here.
Install once in Chrome or Edge.
- Download and unzip the helper into a folder you will keep.
- Open
chrome://extensions(Chrome) oredge://extensions(Edge). - Enable Developer mode, choose Load unpacked, and select the unzipped folder containing
manifest.json. - Pin AIRef capture helper if you want easier access.
Capture a shared conversation.
- Open the public ChatGPT or Claude share link. This helper only accepts public
/share/…pages. - Expand collapsed messages and load earlier messages where necessary.
- Click the helper, then Capture loaded messages. Save its JSON file.
- Return to AIRef and choose Import an AIRef JSON file.
- Check every message, add reference details, and publish with your invitation code.
Capture scope matters. This is a capture of loaded message text, not a guarantee of the full conversation. Attachments and artifacts are omitted. Review the result and acknowledge its limitations before publishing.
What the helper can access
It uses the active-tab permission only after you click it. It does not request cookies, browsing history, AI account credentials, or access to every website. The capture stays in a downloaded file until you import and publish it.
