Answers based directly on the Prompt Cheat Chrome extension so you can install, sync, and troubleshoot with confidence.
Prompt Cheat currently activates on chat.openai.com (ChatGPT), claude.ai (Claude), and gemini.google.com (Gemini). New domains can be added by editing manifest.json in the extension repo and reloading it via chrome://extensions.
Confirm that Developer Mode is enabled, the extension is loaded, and the target site is listed under content_scripts.matches. After editing permissions, click the refresh icon on the extensions page and reload your AI tab.
All prompts live inside chrome.storage.local. If you toggle ☁️ next to a prompt, we also use chrome.storage.sync to mirror the most important templates across devices (Google’s servers, same as bookmark sync). No third-party services ever receive your data.
Open the popup → click Export Data to download prompt-library-YYYY-MM-DD.json. To restore, click Import Data and select the file. Imports merge with existing prompts, so nothing gets overwritten.
Prompt Cheat follows a hybrid strategy to stay under Chrome’s 100KB sync quota: prompts you explicitly toggle, most-used templates, and most recently edited entries are prioritized. Everything else stays local but is still available offline.
Ctrl/Cmd + Shift + P opens and closes the floating library. Press Esc to dismiss it instantly. These shortcuts work on any supported AI tab without interfering with the site.
Yes. Add built-in placeholders such as $SELECTION (highlighted text) and $CURRENT_FILE (page content), or define your own ($TONE, $AUDIENCE). When you insert the prompt, Prompt Cheat asks for the value and injects it automatically.
Use shared Chrome profiles or export/import JSON into teammates’ browsers. Pair this with the Best Practices page to keep categories and tags consistent so search results remain predictable.
Open an issue in the promptcheat GitHub repo with reproduction steps, screenshots, or exported JSON if relevant. For urgent blockers, mention whether the issue occurs in the popup, floating panel, or both.
No. The extension intentionally avoids third-party analytics scripts. All statistics (usage counts, sync quota) stay on-device and are solely used to power in-app UI.
