FAQ

How this task behaves.

  • 01

    Can the AI delete my bookmarks?

    No. The AI can only read your bookmarks to extract information. It cannot modify or delete anything in your browser.

  • 02

    Does it read my entire bookmark library?

    No. It only reads the specific folder you tell it to target in your prompt.

  • 03

    Can it organize my bookmarks into new folders?

    No. The AI only reads existing data to create Markdown text. It cannot create or move folders in your browser.

  • 04

    Will it include the descriptions of the pages?

    It extracts the title and the URL. It does not scrape the full content of the websites themselves.

  • 05

    Can I use this with Obsidian?

    Yes. Since the output is standard Markdown, you can copy the list directly into Obsidian or any other Markdown editor.
