🔍 Technical Details

GeeksForGeeks Support

The extension includes special handling for GeeksForGeeks' strict Content Security Policy (CSP):

• Uses direct DOM manipulation instead of script injection
• Implements a dedicated bridge script for GeeksForGeeks
• Provides robust editor detection and value setting
• Handles both Ace editor and textarea inputs

Editor Bridges

The extension uses specialized editor bridges to interact with different code editors:

• Monaco Editor (used by LeetCode, HackerRank)
• Ace Editor (used by GeeksForGeeks, CodeChef)
• CodeMirror (used by various platforms)

CSP Compliance

To work around Content Security Policy restrictions:

• Avoids inline script execution
• Uses message passing between content scripts and page context
• Implements direct DOM manipulation when necessary

🔒 Privacy & Security

• API keys are stored locally in your browser
• No data is collected or stored externally
• All processing happens in your browser

🔍 Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues:

1. Verify your Gemini API key is valid
2. Ensure you're on a supported platform
3. Try refreshing the page
4. Disable and re-enable the extension
5. Check the browser console for error messages
