2. Installation Steps

1. Download Extension

Download the extension package from WiseMindAI Official Website, or install from Chrome Web Store.

📦 Download zip package🌐 Chrome Web Store

After downloading the zip package, you need to install the extension into Chrome. You can manually install it via Developer mode:

1. Enter chrome://extensions/ in the Chrome address bar to open the extensions management page

2. In the top right corner of the extensions management page, find the "Developer mode" toggle and switch it on (the toggle will turn blue)

3. Drag and drop the downloaded wisemindai-extension-*.zip file onto the extensions management page to install. After successful installation, the extension will appear in the list with "Enabled" status

4. After installation, the WiseMindAI extension icon will appear in the browser toolbar (to the right of the address bar)

5. If the icon is not visible, click the "Extensions" icon (puzzle piece) in the top right of the extensions management page, find WiseMindAI and click "Pin"

After installation, we recommend pinning the extension to the toolbar for easy access.

2. Configure API Endpoint

Click the extension icon, select "Settings", and enter WiseMindAI's local API service port in "API Configuration" (default: 127.0.0.1:38221).

You can click "Test Connection" to verify the configuration, then click "Save Settings".

The port number must match the "Local API Service Port" in WiseMindAI settings.

3. Start Using

You can now use the features you need, such as saving web links.

II. Save Web Links

Save the current page to WiseMindAI with one click. Automatically captures page title, URL, icon, and plain text content. Supports custom title and link information.

Note: Saved links automatically include the page's plain text content for easy searching and viewing later.

III. Context Menu

Right-click anywhere on a webpage to open WiseMindAI's context menu. Main features include:

1. Save Web Link

This works the same as "Save Page Link" when clicking the extension icon.

2. Select Content Block to Save

After enabling, the cursor becomes a text-block selector. You can select any text block and save it as a note, document, knowledge base, or knowledge card set. This lets you save exactly the content you need.

3. Save Article Links ⭐️

On a supported page, click "Save Article Links" to extract all article links from the current page. You can choose which links to save to WiseMindAI for better management of your favorite articles.

If the platform you need is not available, go to "Extension Settings" → "Article Save" to add a new platform scheme.

Currently supported:

1. Download schemes: Download recommended platform schemes such as Hacker News, Juejin, UISDC, etc.

2. New scheme: Create a blank scheme and add new platforms as needed

You can also configure article save options, such as:

1. Auto save: Automatically add to WiseMindAI; when off, links are copied to clipboard
2. Save retry count: Automatically retry on save failure
3. Save destination: Choose to save links to document or knowledge base

4. Save Page as PDF

WiseMindAI now supports one-click export of web page content as PDF or image. While preserving layout and key content, it's convenient for offline reading, archiving, or sharing—ideal for knowledge collection and long-term storage.

5. Capture Full Page

Click to save the current page as a full-page screenshot. Great for articles longer than one screen.

IV. Floating Button

A floating button is displayed in the bottom-right corner of any page.

You can also customize the floating button menu in the settings page:

V. Selection Menu

When you select text on a webpage, a menu bar appears above the selection with options such as: Save Note, Save Document, Save Knowledge Card—so you can save text to WiseMindAI more efficiently.

You can also open the settings page to customize the selection menu buttons:

VI. Note Settings

The extension has multiple sources for saving notes. You can configure note format in one place, including:

• Custom note title format (variables: {title}, {date}, {time})
• Automatically add source information (customizable suffix template)
• Custom suffix content template, for example:

Source: 《{title}》
Original Link: {url}

VII. Default Save Destination

WiseMindAI supports multiple save targets (notes, knowledge base, etc.) from the selection menu, context menu, floating button, and more. To avoid setting the default destination in each place, you can set it once for each feature:

1. Default document folder
2. Default note folder
3. Default knowledge base
4. Knowledge card set

For example: all "Save to Document" actions in the extension will use this document folder.

VIII. One-Click Import WeChat Saved Links

WiseMindAI browser extension (v0.1.3) supports one-click import of WeChat saved article links, bringing scattered quality content from WeChat into WiseMindAI for organization, summarization, and deep learning—connecting "Save → Learn → Reuse".

After the v0.4.0 update, it supports saving article links from any platform. The former WeChat article link feature is now the "WeChat Official Account" scheme; usage remains the same.

How to use:

1. How to Use

First, log in to WeChat File Transfer Assistant Web in your browser. Then from WeChat saved items, select the links you want to import to WiseMindAI and forward them to File Transfer Assistant:

Then return to the WeChat File Transfer Assistant Web page, right-click in a blank area, and click Save Article Links. You will see all article links:

After selecting the articles to save and clicking Save, the WiseMindAI extension will open all pages and save them to the WiseMindAI client. Wait for the automatic save to complete.

If you see an error on first use, click One-Click Save Official Account Links again.

After a successful save, WiseMindAI will refresh the file list and you can see the saved links.

Note: Currently only link cards are supported (e.g. official account articles forwarded via page details).

Support for text, images, link text, etc. will be added later.

2. My Thoughts

To be honest, limited by WeChat's ecosystem openness, this is a compromise solution. From a knowledge management perspective, however, this "user-triggered" flow has unique value. It gives you a "second filter"—avoiding mindless hoarding and only storing content you've reviewed and find valuable in WiseMindAI.

Chris hopes your knowledge base is a "treasure trove" of essence, not another "bookmark folder" that only collects and never reads.

A high signal-to-noise, tidy knowledge base is far more useful for review and reuse than a pile of links.
