Features & Capabilities

SA_agent helps researchers evaluate and understand academic literature found through Google Scholar. Local journal-ranking tools are free to use, while optional AI generation uses credits from an SA_agent account.

JOURNAL RANKINGS AND SEARCH

• Display color-coded journal-ranking badges beside Google Scholar results. • Search more than 35,000 bundled journals by title or ISSN without a network request. • View available SJR, H-index, citation, JCR, CAS, CiteScore, indexing, and other bundled ranking fields. • Choose which ranking indicators appear beside Scholar results. • Import private journal-ranking lists from CSV, TSV, or JSON. Custom datasets remain on the user’s device.

AI PAPER SUMMARIES

• Generate a summary only when the user selects Summarize. • Choose a word limit from 30 to 1,000 words and an Academic, Formal, or Casual tone. • Regenerate or improve a summary and copy or download the result. • Review estimated cost, model information, usage, and remaining SA_agent credits. • When requested, SA_agent may use the Scholar snippet and limited extracted PDF text or article-page context.

ZOTERO LITERATURE REVIEWS

• Optionally connect a Zotero Web API account. • Retrieve up to 50 top-level library items. • Generate a structured literature review using APA, Chicago, MLA, or Harvard citation formatting. • Zotero credentials are used only for requests to the Zotero API.

PRIVACY AND PERMISSIONS

• Journal rankings, Journal Search, matching, and custom datasets operate locally. • SA_agent does not collect a general browsing history or use advertising analytics. • Paper content is sent to the SA_agent service only after the user explicitly requests AI generation. • Optional Zotero credentials are sent only to api.zotero.org. • All executable extension code is included in the package. No remote JavaScript or WebAssembly is downloaded or executed. • Host access is limited to supported Google Scholar domains, swiphtgroup.com, and api.zotero.org.

SETUP

Install SA_agent and open its Options page.
Use the local journal-ranking features immediately, or enter an SA_agent extension token to enable AI generation.
Browse Google Scholar and use the ranking badges, Journal Search, summaries, or optional Zotero literature-review tools.

Is SA_agent Safe?

Risk impact

Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

SA_agent requires some sensitive permissions that could impact your browser and data security. Exercise caution before installing.

Risk likelihood

Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Firefox add-on may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Firefox add-on reputation on Firefox Add-ons Store, the amount of time the Firefox add-on has been around, and other signals about the Firefox add-on. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Firefox add-on.

SA_agent may not be trust-worthy. Avoid installing if possible unless you really trust this publisher.
