Chrome extension

BLACKBOX AI

A browser chat panel that answers coding questions and can use the page you are viewing as context for its suggestions.

What it does

BLACKBOX AI adds a chat window to Chrome where you can ask coding questions and get suggestions back. It can use the page you are viewing as context, which suits developers working through documentation or code on the web.

Key features

  • Opens a code chat from the toolbar icon or a keyboard shortcut you assign
  • Answers coding questions and offers suggestions as you type them
  • Can include the current page as context when the option is turned on

Use cases

  • Asking how to apply an example from documentation you are reading
  • Getting help debugging a snippet found on a forum page
  • Quickly checking syntax without opening a separate tool

Getting started

Click the BLACKBOX AI icon or your assigned shortcut, type a coding question, and turn on Include Context if you want the current page considered.

Good to know

When context is enabled, the contents of the page you are viewing are sent to the BLACKBOX AI service. Review generated code before using it.
