Inline Context Lookup with Rabbitholes Chrome Extension

Описание и применение

Автор создал расширение Chrome 'rabbitholes', которое предоставляет встроенные объяснения выделенного текста с помощью Claude Haiku 4.5. Оно использует Shadow DOM для изоляции стилей и позволяет рекурсивно исследовать термины, не покидая исходную страницу. Данные не передаются через промежуточные серверы.

Задача

Reading long-form articles often requires looking up unfamiliar terms, forcing users to either open new tabs (losing context) or skip terms (losing understanding).

Результат

A privacy-focused, client-side Chrome extension that provides recursive, inline context for reading without breaking flow or leaking data to intermediary servers.

Рабочий процесс

• Install the Rabbitholes Chrome extension.
• Configure the extension with a personal Anthropic API key stored in chrome.storage.sync.
• Highlight text in a web article to trigger an inline explanation from Claude Haiku 4.5.
• Click on specific words within the explanation to recursively explore deeper context.
• Use the hop depth counter to monitor how far the exploration has diverged from the original text.
• Optionally use the globe icon to re-answer queries with live Brave Search results for verification.
• Close the tooltip to return exactly to the previous reading position.

Доказательства

So I built rabbitholes — a Chrome extension that renders an explanation next to your cursor when you highlight text, using a shadow DOM tooltip that doesn't touch the host page's layout or styles.
