            // Your command logic here
            return [
                'success' => true,

Chrome Built-in AI Progressive Enhancement

This plugin now supports Chrome's experimental built-in AI APIs (see Chrome AI APIs) through a unified AI abstraction layer that provides seamless progressive enhancement.

Features

  • Client-side AI: If your browser supports window.AI (Chrome 138+), you can opt-in to use client-side AI for intent classification and suggestions.
  • Privacy-first: Client-side AI processing keeps your data in the browser - no data leaves your device.
  • Performance: Faster response times for simple operations like intent classification.
  • Graceful degradation: Automatic fallback to server-side AI for complex operations or when client-side AI is unavailable.
  • User control: Toggle client-side AI preferences in the palette settings.

How the Progressive Enhancement Works

1. Feature Detection

The plugin automatically detects available AI capabilities:

  • Checks for window.AI.textGeneration for text processing
  • Checks for window.AI.embedding for semantic analysis
  • Checks for window.AI.imageGeneration for image-related tasks
  • Identifies browser type and version

2. Request Routing

The unified AI abstraction layer routes requests based on:

  • Client-side AI: Used for simple operations when available and preferred
    • Intent classification (queries ≤ 10 words)
    • Contextual suggestions
    • Simple embeddings (text ≤ 1000 characters)
  • Server-side AI: Used for complex operations or when client-side AI fails
    • Complex text generation
    • Multi-step workflows
    • Advanced natural language processing
  • Rule-based fallback: Used when all AI services are unavailable
    • Keyword-based intent classification
    • Template-based suggestions
    • Simple hash-based embeddings

3. Fallback Strategy

The system implements a three-tier fallback strategy:

  1. Primary: Client-side AI (if available and preferred)
  2. Secondary: Server-side AI (OpenAI/Claude)
  3. Tertiary: Rule-based matching

4. User Experience

  • Settings modal: Shows AI status, available features, and browser compatibility
  • Real-time feedback: Users see which AI source is being used
  • Transparent operation: No interruption when switching between AI sources
  • Performance indicators: Loading states indicate AI processing

Technical Implementation

AI Abstraction Layer

The AIAbstraction class provides a unified interface:

const aiAbstraction = AIAbstraction.getInstance();
const response = await aiAbstraction.process({
  type: 'intent_classification',
  query: 'create a new blog post'
});

Request Types

  • intent_classification: Categorizes user queries
  • suggestions: Generates contextual command suggestions
  • embedding: Creates semantic embeddings for similarity matching
  • text_generation: Generates complex text responses

Response Format

{
  success: boolean,
  data: any,
  error?: string,
  source: 'client' | 'server' | 'fallback'
}

Browser Compatibility

Browser Version Client-side AI Features
Chrome 138+ ✅ Full support textGeneration, embedding, imageGeneration
Chrome <138 ❌ Not available Server-side AI only
Firefox Any ❌ Not available Server-side AI only
Safari Any ❌ Not available Server-side AI only
Edge Any ❌ Not available Server-side AI only

Privacy and Security

  • Client-side processing: Data never leaves your browser when using client-side AI
  • No tracking: Chrome's built-in AI doesn't track or store your queries
  • User control: You can disable client-side AI at any time
  • Fallback security: Server-side AI uses your configured API keys and follows your privacy settings

Performance Benefits

  • Reduced latency: Client-side AI eliminates network round-trips
  • Lower costs: Reduces API calls to external AI services
  • Better availability: Works even when external AI services are down
  • Scalability: Reduces server load for simple operations

See the Chrome AI API documentation for more details about the underlying APIs.
