Opens the ChatGPT website in a sidebar of the PDF reader to explain selected text and prepare full-paper summaries, using your own ChatGPT account with no API key, and can reuse a Chrome login through an optional extension.
To install, save the .xpi file and drag it onto the Plugins window in Zotero (Tools → Plugins). In Firefox, right-click the download link and choose Save Link As. A plugin has full access to your Zotero and your computer, and the index does not review its code before listing it, so install only plugins from developers you trust. More about installing
