Select text and chat with AI about it. Grep transforms how you interact with web content by letting you select any text and immediately start an AI conversation about it. I'm curious to see if this form factor would be useful. I couldn't find other Chrome extensions that did this in this form factor, so I decided to test it out. I would appreciate any feedback. Select a piece of text from your Chrome tab, right-click, and pick Grep to start chatting.

Copy suggestion:

> Secure: Uses your own OpenAI API key

Change to:

> Use your own OpenAI API key

(Shifting subject to user feels nicer while saying the same thing; summarizing it as a security claim misses the mark - extensions can and do extract user data even when they also solicit and use API keys from those users)

Needs a new name. "Grepping" is a thing but not close to what your extension does.
