Install daily haiku
daily haiku is pending review on the Chrome Web Store. In the meantime, you can install it as a developer extension in a few steps.
Step 1 — Start here
Download the extension
Download the extension
Click the button below to download a ZIP of the extension files.
Unzip it
Extract the ZIP to a permanent folder on your computer — somewhere you won't accidentally move or delete it.
The folder must stay in place. Chrome loads the extension from it directly.
Open Chrome Extensions
In Chrome, paste this into your address bar and press Enter:
chrome://extensions
Enable Developer Mode
Toggle the "Developer mode" switch in the top-right corner of the Extensions page.
Load the extension
Click "Load unpacked", then select the folder you extracted in step 2.
Open a new tab
That's it. Open a new tab and your first haiku is waiting.
Common questions
Why isn't it on the Chrome Web Store yet?
We're waiting on the review process. It usually takes a few days to a couple of weeks. This developer install gives you access right now.
Is this safe?
Yes. The extension source is open and you can inspect every file before loading it. It only communicates with haiku-daily.vercel.app.
Will it update automatically?
Not automatically — developer-loaded extensions don't auto-update. When the Chrome Web Store version is live, you can switch to that and it will update normally.
Does it work in Edge or Brave?
Yes. Both support loading unpacked Chrome extensions the same way. Find the Extensions page in your browser settings and follow the same steps.
