usage

setting up ai providers

option 1: chrome built in ai (recommended)

metldr uses chrome's built in gemini nano model by default.

1. ensure you are on chrome version 138+
2. enable "prompt api for gemini nano" in chrome://flags
3. the extension will automatically detect availability

option 2: ollama (for power users)

run larger models (llama 3, qwen, etc.) locally on your machine.

1. install ollama
2. run a model: ollama run llama3.2
3. go to metldr settings > ai provider > select "ollama"
4. ensure ollama is running at http://127.0.0.1:11434

development

commands

privacy

metldr is designed with a strict privacy first architecture:

• local execution: all ai processing happens on your device (via chrome ai or localhost ollama).
• no data collection: we do not collect, store, or transmit your emails, browsing history, or personal data.
• offline capable: core features work without internet access.
