Chrome Extension

Feature 5 min read Updated May 2026

What is the GrooveOS Chrome Extension?

The GrooveOS Chrome extension is a web clipper — it lets you send selected text, URLs, or full page content to your team's GrooveOS memory in one click, from any website.

You choose the truth level before saving. A competitor's pricing page? Save as WORKING. A confirmed client requirement? Save as VALIDATED. It takes 5 seconds.

Clips are tagged with your team scope and project automatically, so they appear alongside Drive documents and chat conversations in your team's shared memory — no manual filing needed.

Installing the extension

The extension is currently in developer mode only. A Chrome Web Store listing is coming soon.

  1. Make sure you have access to the GrooveOS repo, or ask your admin for the chrome-extension/ folder.
  2. Open Chrome and navigate to chrome://extensions in the address bar.
  3. Enable the Developer mode toggle (top right corner).
  4. Click Load unpacked and select the chrome-extension/ folder.
  5. The GrooveOS icon appears in your Chrome toolbar.

Distributing to your team

Your admin can distribute the extension folder to your team via a shared Drive folder or Slack. Each member follows the same steps above to install from the local folder.

First use — Sign in

Click the GrooveOS icon in your toolbar. On first use:

  1. Click Sign in with Google.
  2. Authorize GrooveOS to read your identity (email and name — nothing else).
  3. Your team scope is set automatically based on your Google account.

You will only need to sign in once — your credentials are stored securely in Chrome's local storage. Signing out of GrooveOS does not affect your Google account.

Already signed in?

If your Google account is already authorized for GrooveOS (for example, you use chat.grooveos.app), the extension signs you in automatically on first click.

Clipping content

There are two ways to clip content from any page:

Right-click menu (fastest)

Select text on any page → right-click → Send to GrooveOS. The clip is saved immediately with your team's default settings.

Popup (full control)

  1. Click the GrooveOS icon in the toolbar.
  2. The current page title and URL are pre-filled in the popup.
  3. Add or edit the content you want to save.
  4. Choose the truth level: EPHEMERAL / WORKING / VALIDATED / CANONICAL.
  5. Optionally choose a project scope (defaults to your team's default project).
  6. Click Send to Brain.

A green confirmation appears. The clip is immediately searchable by your team.

Choosing a truth level

Use WORKING for anything you found but haven't verified. Use VALIDATED for facts your team has confirmed. Reserve CANONICAL for ground-truth information that should always appear in AI context. When in doubt, use WORKING — you can promote it later.

What gets saved

Each clip becomes a memory item tagged with:

Field Value
content Selected text, or page title + URL if nothing is selected
source chrome-extension + the page URL
truth_level What you chose in the popup
team_scope Your team (set at login, cannot be changed per clip)
project_scope What you selected, or your team's default project
visibility team (default — visible to all team members)

Managing clips

Clips appear in your team's memory alongside Drive documents and chat conversations. Search for them from LibreChat, Open WebUI, or the API just like any other memory item.

To delete a clip: search for it in GrooveOS → open the memory item detail page → click Delete. Deletion is permanent and cannot be undone.

To promote a clip to a higher truth level: open the memory item → click Promote → select the new level → confirm. Promotions are logged in the item's audit trail.
