- OpenAI api key handled via extension-scoped
chrome.storage.localapis and used only withinAuthorizationheader to sign OpenAI API requests (which is not exposed or tracked, even if webRequest API enabled in some other malicious extension) - OpenAI requests goes through official OpenAI NPM-package and running only within background service-worker which helps with XSS-kind of attacks.
