I can immediately think of personal use cases for this.

Any you can share?
Yeah.

1) I follow a strict diet with specific health goals. I often chat with AI on if foods fit into my diet and what benefit they provide. I do my food shopping online in a browser. For example, if I am looking at pecan nuts, I would previously copy the url into Claude and discuss it. With this tool I can do it directly in the browser. The stored prompt would be my current diet and health goals.

2) I often have AI chats about projects I am doing. I regularly copy and paste product links into the chat to discuss. With this tool, I can do it right from the browser with one click - where the project details are stored within the prompt.

Fight enshittification. For whatever reason, many travel sites no longer send full details in the e-mail confirmation, they want you to click through to the site...which means I can't forward it to plans@tripit.com for automatic import.

Immediately after booking something,I tell Gemini to add it to my TripIt. Works great. I have a little prompt explaining how I like it formatted that I cut and paste, so I can just make this a one-click prompt. I could also have it add flights to my.flightradar24.com.

I also use Gemini in Chrome to add appointment confirmations to my calendar. Or remember things in Google Keep.

There's lot of use cases for this kind of thing.
