Details

(Whiteboard: [genai])

When I:

  1. right click on a page without selecting any text on the page,
  2. select "Ask ChatGPT", and
  3. select one of the ChatGPT actions ("Summarize", "Simplify language", "Quiz me", or "Explain this"),

the sidebar submits a ChatGPT query like:

I’m on page "Example Domain" with "" selected. Please summarize the selection using precise and concise language. Use headers and bulleted lists in the summary, to make it scannable. Maintain the meaning and factual accuracy.

There is no need for the query to include with "" selected when no text is selected.

would need a different localized prompt string without the selection part or potentially it defaults to page text for this no-selection context menu flow
