## Description

The **org-protocol** Chrome extension seamlessly integrates your browsing experience with Emacs org-mode, allowing you to save the current webpage or selected text via org-capture. By adding an URL bar icon, it provides quick access to store content efficiently within your org-mode setup.

To function correctly, it requires the usual system-side org-protocol configuration. The extension requests permission to access data on all websites solely to capture the currently selected text, ensuring privacy and focused functionality for org-capture operations.
