
This tutorial walks you through chatting with a webpage for the first time. By the end, you'll have asked a question about a page and received an AI-generated answer.

## 1. Navigate to a page

Open any article, documentation page, or blog post in Chrome. For this tutorial, pick something with a few paragraphs of text — a Wikipedia article works well.

## 2. Open Daneel AI

Look for the floating launcher bubble in the bottom-right corner of the page. Click the **sparkles icon** (Ask Site) to open the chat panel.

If you don't see the bubble, click the Daneel AI extension icon in the Chrome toolbar to open the side panel instead.

## 3. Ask a question

The chat panel opens with **Page** mode selected by default. Type a question about the page content and press **Enter**.

For example, on a Wikipedia article about space exploration:

> *What were the key milestones in the Apollo program?*

## 4. See the response

Daneel extracts the page content, sends it along with your question to the active AI model, and streams back a response. You'll see tokens appear in real time.

The response is formatted in Markdown with headings, lists, and tables rendered inline.

## 5. Continue the conversation

Ask follow-up questions. Daneel keeps the conversation context, so you can refer to previous answers:

> *Which of those milestones had the highest budget?*

## 6. Try a different page

Navigate to a new page and ask another question. The chat context resets per page in Page mode.

## What just happened

Daneel extracted the page content using a three-strategy pipeline (Readability.js, CSS cascade with Turndown, or plain-text fallback), assembled it into a prompt with your question, and streamed the response from your active AI provider.

Everything ran locally if you're using the default WebGPU backend. No data left your machine.
