# Live context and visible browser actions

2026-10-11 · Product

> Context estimates update as you type. The browser extension shows AI activity in the affected tab and lets you stop its action.

The context display now includes your unsent draft and updates when you add or delete text. This estimate counts text; attachments and additional tool definitions are not included. The actual model limit stays separate.

Manual and automatic compaction default to DeepSeek V4.1 Flash, subject to your existing model access. Original messages stay readable. The manual control follows the actual background job and reports a failed or paused run.

The browser extension has a compact panel in the ZeroLog design. AI activity appears in the affected tab with a Stop action. Stopping there cancels the browser action. You can also send an attached file with Enter without adding message text.

Update an installed extension using the [current download](https://zerolog.ch/extension). Automated Chrome key presses currently support Tab and Escape; use targeted text entry or clicks for other actions. Firefox source downloads remain a developer preview without a new signed package.
