Save with the browser extension

The Indelible extension saves the page you’re on, full content and any text you select as a highlight, straight to your library. It works in Chrome, Firefox, and Edge.

Install

• Chrome: install from the Chrome Web Store.
• Microsoft Edge: install from the same Chrome Web Store listing. Edge may first ask you to allow extensions from other stores.
• Firefox: install from Firefox Add-ons.

Build from source

To test an unreleased build or contribute to the extension, build it locally:

cd extension
npm install
npm run build          # Chrome/Edge: output in .output/chrome-mv3
npm run build:firefox  # Firefox: output in .output/firefox-mv3

• Chrome / Edge: open chrome://extensions, enable Developer mode, choose “Load unpacked”, and select the build output folder.
• Firefox: open about:debugging → This Firefox → “Load Temporary Add-on” and select the built manifest.

Connect it to your instance

1. Click the Indelible icon in the toolbar. It opens your instance’s authorization page (/extension/auth).
2. Sign in and approve. The extension uses a PKCE OAuth flow and stores its token locally; your password never touches the extension.

If you self-host, point the extension at your own instance URL in its settings before connecting.

Save a page

• Click the toolbar icon, or press Alt+Shift+S, to save the current page.
• Right-click → Save to Indelible does the same from the context menu.
• Select text first, then right-click → Save highlight to Indelible to capture that passage as a highlight.

After saving, an inline toolbar lets you add tags and notes without leaving the page.
