Barra/AI - summon AI with a slash
DISCLAIMER: Barra/AI is a open-source project. For feature ideas, go to: https://github.com/MrCordeiro/barra-ai/discussions
Type /ai in any text field.
Press Tab.
Boom. AI appears.
No popups. No sidebars. No subscriptions.
Just AI where you’re already typing.
(“barra” means slash in Portuguese. Because "/" is the best key)
(ง •_•)ง What it does?
Install the extension
Add your OpenAI/Anthropic API key in the settings

The AI answer appears replaces your prompt.
Yes, directly in the text field you’re already using.
Magic?
No. Just JavaScript and stubbornness.

- Not for everyone unfortunately as the author didn't make it possible to use any endpoint including local that is at least OpenAI compatible by just inserting that the url and the key! I hope the next version will just allow this as not everyone want or can afford to use OpenAI! And when there are so plenty of options having the choice is important but also for some reasons using only a local model is preferable as nobody should trust the compagnie its CEO is sama... bare common-sense! Also many of the other options come with free tiers and equally good and even offer OpenAI models free-tier without the need of adding a billing or paying so many can benefit from this... Otherwise someone or I should vibe code a fork of this that will take care of this!
