Hey everyone,
I built a small Chrome/Chromium extension called ChronoChat to solve a problem I kept running into: long ChatGPT conversations becoming almost impossible to navigate.
ChronoChat adds a sidebar to ChatGPT that turns the current conversation into a searchable map. You can:
- jump directly to specific messages
- filter by user or assistant turns
- search inside the current conversation
- use keyboard shortcuts for faster navigation
- export the full conversation as JSON, CSV, Markdown or PDF
The extension runs locally in the browser. There is no backend, no analytics, and no remote runtime assets.
I made it because I often use ChatGPT for research, coding, planning, and long iterative work, and scrolling through huge threads gets painful fast.

Would love feedback, especially from people who use ChatGPT for long workflows.
What would make this more useful for you?
