About this extension
ChatGPT Search Revealer makes ChatGPT disclose its hidden search process before answering your question.
When you ask ChatGPT a question, it silently runs web searches behind the scenes — but never shows you exactly what it searched for, how it reformulated queries, or which sources it chose to use versus skip. This extension fixes that.
How it works:
A reveal prompt is automatically appended to your message asking ChatGPT to list each web search query it used (exact wording), note any reformulations, and mention which sources it decided to use vs skip. A floating toggle button (🔍 ON/OFF) lets you control when injection is active.
Features:
- 🔍 Auto-injects a search disclosure prompt into your ChatGPT messages
- ⚡ Floating ON/OFF toggle — control injection per-message
- 🔖 Bookmarklet version included (no install required)
- 🔒 No data collection — fully local, zero tracking
- ⚡ Manifest V3, storage-only permissions
- 🪶 Lightweight — 6.6 KB, no background script
Use cases:
- SEO research: see exactly which queries ChatGPT uses to find information
- Source verification: understand which sources ChatGPT trusts vs skips
- Query analysis: learn how AI reformulates searches after seeing initial results
- Transparency: make AI search visible and auditable
