About this extension
ChatGPT History Shredder
The "Network Surgeon" for a Lag-Free ChatGPT Experience.
Most "history cleaners" simply hide message elements in your browser, leaving the underlying memory-hogging data intact. History Shredder takes a more aggressive, technical approach: it performs surgery on the data stream itself before the browser even has a chance to render it.
Key Features
The "Network Surgeon" for a Lag-Free ChatGPT Experience.
Most "history cleaners" simply hide message elements in your browser, leaving the underlying memory-hogging data intact. History Shredder takes a more aggressive, technical approach: it performs surgery on the data stream itself before the browser even has a chance to render it.
Key Features
Zero-Bloat Network Surgery: Intercepts the backend-api response and rewrites the conversation JSON on the fly.
The "Golden Thread" Algorithm: Traces the direct lineage from your current message back to the root, ensuring no conversation breaks occur.
System Brain Preservation: Automatically identifies and keeps "System" and "Root" nodes so ChatGPT never loses its core instructions or personality.
Custom Memory Depth: You decide exactly how many user prompts to keep in active memory—from a single Q&A to a deep 50-prompt history.
Designed for Survival: Built specifically to allow ChatGPT to run smoothly on low-end hardware (like my AMD A9) by eliminating DOM-related crashes.
