Gemini Temporary Chat Sho

Gemini Temporary Chat Shortcut — Open Gemini temporary chat instantly with a keyboard shortcut.

💡 Why this extension?

Unlike ChatGPT, Google Gemini does not provide a keyboard shortcut or URL to start a temporary chat. The only way is to manually click the icon — which interrupts keyboard-driven workflows.

This extension solves that by letting you open a temporary chat with a single keyboard shortcut.

✨ Features

• Press Option+Shift+G (macOS) or Alt+Shift+G (Windows/Linux) to instantly open a temporary chat
• Rebind the shortcut to any combination via chrome://extensions/shortcuts
• Click the toolbar icon to open the shortcut manager; hover to see the current binding
• Resilient to Gemini UI changes — layered DOM selector fallbacks survive renames
• IME-compatible — works regardless of input language
• Runs ONLY on gemini.google.com — no interference with other sites

🆕 What's new in v1.0.2

• Default shortcut changed from Alt+Shift+N to Alt+Shift+G — the old combo now collides with Chrome's split-view tab shortcut.
• Shortcut is now user-configurable via Chrome's built-in shortcut manager (chrome.commands API).
• Toolbar icon opens the shortcut manager in one click; tooltip shows the current binding (e.g. "Shortcut: ⌥⇧G").
• Tightened content-script match pattern from *://*.gemini.google.com/* to https://gemini.google.com/* for minimum-privilege scope.
