I built MindContext to keep research notes connected to their sources
Description and use
<p>When I research a topic, I usually end up with too many tabs, a separate notes document, and a chat window. The frustrating part is not collecting information. It is remembering where a quote came from and which of my notes belonged to that source.</p> <p>I built <strong>MindContext</strong>, a Chrome side panel for that workflow. It keeps a note attached to the page URL, lets me save selected text through the right-click menu, and groups related pages into research projects. When I want to discuss the material with ChatGPT, Claude, or Gemini, it prepares the page context, my notes, and sav
