About ThinkMode+
ThinkMode+ — Auto-Enable ChatGPT Thinking Mode. Set It Once. Never Click Again.
Tired of manually enabling "Think" or "Deep Research" every single time you open ChatGPT? Done pasting the same "act as a senior developer" prompt on every conversation? ThinkMode+ eliminates that friction entirely.
ThinkMode+ is a lightweight Chrome extension that automatically activates ChatGPT's extended thinking (reasoning) mode the moment you start a new conversation — no clicks, no manual setup, no repetition.

🧠 CORE FEATURES
──────────────────────────────────────
🔁 Auto-Enable Think Mode
ThinkMode+ detects your ChatGPT composer on every page load and automatically activates extended thinking based on your saved preference. Reasoning mode, always on — without a single click.
🎭 Expert Roles & AI Personas
Stop starting every chat with "Act as a senior developer." ThinkMode+ injects your chosen role silently into every prompt the moment you hit send. Built-in roles include:
- Senior Software Developer
- Financial Analyst
- Devil's Advocate
- Socratic Teacher
- UX Critic
- Research Scientist
- First Principles Thinker
…and you can create unlimited custom roles.
🎯 Precision Mode
Need facts, not hallucinations? Toggle Precision Mode to automatically append a system directive that instructs ChatGPT to reason step-by-step and verify factual claims before responding.
📐 Output Format Bar
Format your ChatGPT responses without rewriting prompts. Instantly switch between Table, Steps, Code, Comparison, and Bullet output formats from the floating control bar.
⚡ Follow-Up Prompt Bar
One-click follow-ups appear automatically after every ChatGPT response: Go Deeper, Simplify, Give an Example, Challenge This. No retyping. Just click.
⌨️ Keyboard Shortcut
Toggle ThinkMode+ on or off globally with Ctrl+Shift+T (Cmd+Shift+T on Mac) — from any ChatGPT tab, instantly.
🔔 UI Health Alerts
If ChatGPT updates its interface and breaks the auto-activation, ThinkMode+ sends you a desktop notification so you always know when manual intervention is needed.

🛡️ PRIVACY & TRANSPARENCY
──────────────────────────────────────
ThinkMode+ is built with privacy as a baseline, not an afterthought.
✅ All processing happens locally in your browser
✅ No browsing history or chat data sent to our servers
✅ No analytics or telemetry from the extension
✅ Settings synced via Chrome's own storage API
✅ Authentication handled by Supabase — we never see your password
The optional Precision Mode feature modifies outgoing messages client-side only to append a fixed directive. Nothing is logged or transmitted to ThinkMode+ servers.

📋 PERMISSIONS EXPLAINED
──────────────────────────────────────
- Storage — saves your preferences across sessions
- Notifications — alerts you if ChatGPT's UI breaks auto-activation (opt-out in settings)
- Tabs — broadcasts your setting changes to open ChatGPT tabs instantly
