npm run build # TypeScript check + production buildThe extension injects a small banner above the text input area on supported AI websites. Banners display rotating messages like:
"Wait a minute — could you solve this yourself first?" "Your brain is the best model. Give it a chance first." "Pause. Think. Then decide if you really need AI for this."
Messages rotate every 30 seconds with a fade transition. The extension uses MutationObserver with a fallback polling mechanism to reliably detect input fields across all supported sites.
