GitHub Copilot, right next to your tabs.

Anya puts GitHub Copilot in your browser sidebar — it reads your tabs, bookmarks and history, fills forms and drives pages, and can dig into a local repo, all from whatever you point it at, and nothing leaves your machine.

Built on the GitHub Copilot SDK, using your signed-in GitHub account — nothing new to buy or set up.

01 · Why you'd actually use it

Your editor's Copilot,
but for the other half of your day.

Half your work isn't in the IDE — it's in PRs, dashboards, tickets, docs, forms, and twenty open tabs. Anya brings that same workflow into the other half.

  1. 01

    Sees your browser.

    Tabs, bookmarks, history, downloads, selections. Right-click any element → "Add to Anya" to pin it exactly.

  2. 02

    Acts on your browser.

    Fills forms, clicks through wizards, drives your logged-in browser via Playwright. Approve each action, or let it flow.

  3. 03

    Your repo too.

    Attach a local folder — Anya reads files, greps, edits, and runs shell commands alongside your browser context.

  4. 04

    Point at anything.

    Right-click any element → "Add to Anya". Or use 📎 and @ references to attach tabs, selections, bookmarks, history, clipboard, images, or local folders. Context chips travel with your prompt.

  5. 05

    Multi-chat, your way.

    Pin, tag, search, rename, export to Markdown. Everything persists across restarts.

  6. 06

    Talks back, too.

    🎤 to dictate — words stream live into the composer. 🔊 to hear replies read back sentence-by-sentence as they land.

  7. 07

    Your pick of model.

    GPT-4o, Claude, or model-auto — Anya picks the best fit. See context window and cost before you commit.

  8. 08

    You're always in control.

    Every write action asks first. Auto-approve routine steps if you want speed — deleting, form submits, and other risky moves always stop for a yes.

  9. 09

    Nothing leaves your machine.

    Your Copilot seat, your browser, your laptop. No server, no telemetry, no cloud sync.

04 · Under the hood

Simple architecture.
Serious power.

A sidebar extension, a content script on every page, and a local Node bridge. No servers. No relays. Everything on your machine.

Sidebar chat UI · context chips · 📎 menu
◀ ─── JSON frames ─── ▶ Native Messaging
Node bridge @github/copilot-sdk · browser tools
right-click · Alt+A · field tracking Page bridge
click · type · screenshot · navigate playwright-cli

The page bridge runs as a content script on every page — captures elements you right-click, tracks text fields, and sends context to the sidebar. The Node bridge wraps the Copilot SDK and runs tools. That's it.

"Your browser is my workspace.
Tabs are my files. Bookmarks and history are my knowledge graph."
