Key points

• Shift+Enter inserts a newline.
• After clicking Add to chat, press Enter or click Save to keep the annotation. Click outside the comment box or click Cancel to discard it.
• Add to chat keeps any existing draft text and can collect multiple numbered passages, each with its own optional comment, in one annotation capsule.
• The input grows with its content and becomes scrollable at its maximum height.
• While a reply is running, the send icon becomes a stop button.

Pitfalls

Review the upstream repo before installing. This guide is auto-derived from indexed fields and may lag the latest release. If anything contradicts the official docs, treat the upstream source as authoritative.
