## Description

Task Catcher adds a small floating button to the bottom-right of every page. Open it, paste any text (for example a conversation with an AI assistant), and it extracts concrete, actionable tasks using a free large language model that you configure with your own API key.
Features:
Extract tasks from pasted text with one click
Mark tasks done/reopen, cancel/restore, or delete
Add follow-up sub-tasks
"Add context": paste more notes about a single task and let the AI refine it and
spin off follow-ups
Add tasks manually without the AI
Everything is stored locally in your browser . Bring your own free API key from Groq (<a href="https://prod.outgoing.prod.webservices.mozgcp.net/v1/b1078245a65cd89446a0611a6e44812f0ccc81d6128974d2af52fff44d4532ed/http%3A//console.groq.com/keys" rel="nofollow">console.groq.com/keys</a>) or Google Gemini (<a href="https://prod.outgoing.prod.webservices.mozgcp.net/v1/7776a40f03f9230fee64ed05e92915eb3c4c002079b06d99709dbebaeeb95f32/http%3A//aistudio.google.com/apikey" rel="nofollow">aistudio.google.com/apikey</a>). The extension has no server of its own — your pasted text is sent directly from your browser to the provider you choose.
