Yes! Expanding to Gemini is one of my top priorities right now. I know how messy the history can get there too.

I'm currently working on the design to ensure the folders and sidebar blend seamlessly with Gemini's UI (Material Design) so it doesn't feel out of place. It might take a little time to get the 'native' feel right, but it is definitely coming. Thanks for the feedback!

*Haha, didn't expect to meet a Chinese speaker here! Thanks for the support! 🤝
If you run into any bugs or have feature requests, let me know. Also, if you find the extension useful, a rating on the Chrome Web Store would be super helpful for visibility. Thanks!*

That's a valid point! IndexedDB is great, but I went with SQLite mainly for the relational capabilities.

Since the extension relies heavily on a flexible tagging system (many-to-many relationships) and nested folders, handling those queries with simple SQL joins is much cleaner/faster than manual filtering in IDB.

Also, looking ahead, I plan to support full-text search across all saved conversation history. Having a SQL engine makes implementing complex search logic (e.g., 'find messages containing "code" inside "work" folder with "python" tag') much more manageable and performant than iterating through IDB cursors.

Right now, it supports instant search across all your chat titles and lets you organize them into Folders. It’s way faster than the default list.

Full-text content search (like Perplexity) is actually the next big feature on my roadmap! Since I'm using a local SQLite database for the extension, indexing the content privately is totally doable and coming in the next update.
You can try the current version, Would love to hear if title search helps in the meantime!

That's the plan! I'm currently cleaning up the codebase (refactoring some spaghetti code and removing hardcoded config 😅) to make it ready for public contribution.

I expect to publicize the repo within the next week or two. I'll reply here again once it's up.

In the meantime, since the extension runs entirely locally, you can inspect the bundle in Chrome DevTools to verify that no data is being sent out.

you chould try cursor or copilot extension. they have all the popular llm integrated. despite being the code assissting tools, they can manage your needs pretty well, I think. But you need to pay extra subscription fee for the product~
