AIngelExt (v0.5.3)

AIngelExt is a local-first browser extension (Chromium / Manifest V3) that helps prevent accidental sharing of passwords, API keys, IBANs, emails, tokens, private keys, etc. into websites (ChatGPT/LLM chats, search engines, web forms), and adds a Gmail “Send” safety check.

  • Runs entirely in your browser
  • No accounts
  • No server
  • No network calls from extension code

Supported browsers

✅ Chrome / Edge / Brave / Opera (desktop/laptop, Chromium-based)

Not supported by this build:

  • Firefox (requires a separate build + signing for normal installs)
  • iPhone/Android browsers (mobile extension support is limited by platform)

What it protects (the “gates”)

1) Input Gate (paste + type + submit)

Triggers when you paste or try to submit/send/search text that looks like it contains sensitive data.

You can:

  • Redact (normal): removes common secrets/PII
  • Redact+ (strict): also catches many obfuscations (spaced emails, split keys) and applies stricter masking
  • Wrap as untrusted data: adds a prompt-injection guard wrapper (optional)

2) File Upload Gate (before upload)

Triggers when you select or drag/drop text files into upload controls.

  • Inspects text files up to the configured size limit
  • Can cancel upload, upload original, or redact then upload
  • Polite mode: if the website shows its own blocking popup (e.g., “Create account”), AIngelExt does not cover it with a full-screen overlay.

3) Reasoning Gate (copy)

Triggers when you copy longer, “checkable” content (e.g., AI outputs with claims).

Buttons:

  • Copy (as-is): copies selected text
  • Hypothesis (unverified): adds a clear “unverified/hypothesis” label
  • Copy + trace (AI footer): appends a short “AI-assisted” trace line

4) Output Gate (Gmail Web)

Intercepts Gmail Send and asks you to qualify/verify/remove checkable items before sending.

5) Action Gate (irreversible clicks)

Adds a confirmation step for actions likely to be irreversible (delete/publish/deploy/pay/transfer, etc.).
