Kagi Search extension don't work in chrome

MarkTanashchuk

In a normal Chrome session, opening the Kagi extension shows me this.

Even with the extension enabled in Incognito mode, the issue remain.

It works fine on Firefox.

It’s a rather old problem; it’s been around for at least a few months.

Hi there, MarkTanashchuk

Could you explain what you mean by 'does not work'?

Does the incognito functionality not work as expected?
or are you expecting some other functionality to be present?

The extension appears to function correctly on my end - it correctly logs me in when using incognito.
If you were expecting further functionality, we unfortunately had to remove it due to Chrome store policies.
There is a separate summarize extension for Chrome you can download - but that is the only functionality that is present for chrome at this time.

The problem is that neither normal nor incognito mode have a working extension on my end

I've reinstalled it several times, but it still won't work

It does, however, work in Firefox

Sorry but I am not sure we are on the same page.

The extension on chrome is a stripped down version of the firefox one, this means that the popup menu does nothing - it does not change or show summarizer or anything like that.
It's only purpose is to log you in when in incognito.

If you want summarizer functionality then you have to use a different extension:

Oh, that's how Kagi Search extension works in Chrome. Thanks for clarification!

I'd be down to switch to the Kagi Summarizer extension, but I've had a couple of problems:

I obtained the API token from my Kagi settings (https://kagi.com/settings?p=api&generate=1), entered it in the designated field, and clicked Save token a few times and restarted Cchrome a few times.

However, it won't use the token(?) for any paid engine(Agnes/Daphne/Muriel). I believe Agnes and Daphne should be free for Kagi users, with Muriel as a paid enterprise model. However, all models are showing the message.

And the free version does work for some links but doesn't work on some HN links like https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=43137616. It used to work, but now it doesn't. Let's address this separately as it may be unrelated.

I checked my Kagi API settings (https://kagi.com/settings?p=api) and saw that the credentials hadn't been used when I used Agnes/Daphne/Muriel engines. It seems the widget isn't recognizing the token.

Could you advise whether Agnes or Daphne would replicate Kagi Search? Once this is settled and the widget token is fixed, the problem will be solved.

Thank you!

Chrome continues to have this problem.
