PROMPT ACE

Prompt ACE is an advanced Chrome extension designed to help users efficiently manage, version, and enhance their AI prompts directly in the browser. It provides a robust suite of tools for prompt engineers, developers, writers, and anyone who regularly works with AI models.

✨ Features

• 📝 Full Prompt Management: Create, read, update, and delete prompts with a user-friendly interface.
• 📚 Version Control: Automatically saves a new version of a prompt whenever the content is changed, allowing you to track history and restore previous versions.
• 🏷️ Organization: Organize prompts using domains, categories, and tags for easy filtering and retrieval.
• 🚀 In-Page Text Enhancement: Select text on any webpage and use the "Enhance" feature to rewrite it using the Google Gemini API. You can adjust the tone, format, and length of the output.
• ⚡ Quick Access: Use keyboard shortcuts (Ctrl+Shift+P) and right-click context menus to quickly open the extension or insert prompts.
• 🌐 Universal Compatibility: Works with most text fields on the web, including standard inputs, textareas, and contentEditable divs (used in platforms like Gmail, ChatGPT, and Notion).
• 🔐 Secure API Key Storage: Your Google Gemini API key is stored securely in local browser storage and is never shared.
• 📤 Import/Export: Easily back up your prompt library to a JSON file or import prompts from a backup.

🛠️ Technology Stack

• Manifest V3: The latest Chrome Extension platform for enhanced security and performance.
• JavaScript (ES Modules): Modern JavaScript for a modular and maintainable codebase.
• Google Gemini & LangChain.js: Powers the AI-driven text enhancement features.
• Dexie.js: A powerful wrapper for IndexedDB, used for storing and managing the prompt library.
• Fuse.js: For intelligent fuzzy search capabilities.
• Webpack: Used to bundle LangChain dependencies for use in the browser environment.

🚀 Getting Started

Prerequisites

• Node.js and npm
• A valid Google Gemini API Key

Installation

1. Clone the repository:

   git clone <repository-url>
   cd Prompt ACE-extension

2. Install dependencies:

   npm install

3. Build the LangChain bundle: The LangChain library needs to be bundled to work correctly in a browser extension environment.

   npm run webpack

   This command creates the src/lib/langchain.bundle.js file.

4. Load the extension in Chrome:

   • Open Chrome and navigate to chrome://extensions.
   • Enable Developer mode using the toggle in the top-right corner.
   • Click the "Load unpacked" button.
   • Select the Prompt ACE-extension directory.

5. Configure the API Key:

   • Once the extension is loaded, click its icon in the Chrome toolbar to open the popup.
   • Go to the "Settings" tab.
   • Enter your Google Gemini API key and click "Save & Test".

💻 Usage

• Managing Prompts: Open the popup to view, create, edit, or delete your prompts.
• Using a Prompt: Click the "Copy" button on a prompt to copy its content to the clipboard, or the "Insert" button to inject it directly into the active text field on the current page.
• Enhancing Text: Select any text on a webpage, right-click, and choose "Enhance selected text" from the context menu. A modal will appear, allowing you to rewrite the text with different parameters.

🏗️ Project Architecture

The extension is built with a modular architecture to separate concerns:

• src/background: Contains the service worker scripts that handle background tasks like context menu creation, command listeners, and core AI logic.
• src/content: The content script that is injected into web pages to handle DOM manipulation, such as inserting prompt text and displaying the enhancement modal.
• src/popup: The UI and logic for the main extension popup, broken down into modules for displaying prompts, handling the form, filtering, etc.
• src/lib: Shared libraries and services, including the ai-service.js for Gemini integration and db.js/prompt-manager.js for all database operations.
• assets: Contains icons and other static assets.

🔧 Development

• Any changes to the LangChain dependencies in src/lib/langchain-bundle.js require a rebuild using the npm run webpack command.
• The extension currently does not have an automated testing suite.
