TL;DR for every comment on HN

Hi HN! I love reading the comments under HN submissions but I often get overwhelmed when I'm skimming threads to find interesting ones. To make my life easier, I built a Chrome extension that generates small summaries for each comment in a thread. When you load an HN submission page, the extension reads comments (with their context), pushes them to gpt-4o-mini for summarization, and inserts the resulting summaries into the page as a heading for each comment. It makes it easy to quickly see where a thread is headed and focus on the ones that interest you most. The result looks something like this: https://github.com/jnnnthnn/hn-comment-summaries/raw/v1.0/sc... The extension requires you to provide an OpenAI API key, which is then used to make requests directly from your browser. I've been using the extension for a few days now and it's only cost me a couple cents/day, making it well worth it. I hope you'll find it useful! Feedback and questions welcome! Jonathan PS: You can install it directly from the Chrome Web Store at https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/hacker-news-comment...
