I'm a user of the new "Ask AI" feature in Firefox, and while I appreciate the convenience of having an AI assistant in the browser, I've noticed a significant limitation that prevents the feature from being truly useful.

The Problem

Currently, when you right-click and select the "Ask AI" option, the prompt sent to the chatbot only includes the selected text and the page title. It completely omits the page's URL. This is the prompt that is sent:

* * I’m on page “<tabTitle>Get Support | Mozilla Support</tabTitle>” with “<selection></selection>” selected.

• * Please summarize the selection using precise and concise language. Use headers and bulleted lists in the summary, to make it scannable. Maintain the meaning and factual accuracy.

This is a major issue because without the URL, the AI cannot access the full context of the page. It can't scrape the content, analyze the structure, or understand the full context of the selected text, which is often crucial for generating accurate and comprehensive summaries or answers. The feature, as it is, relies entirely on the user manually selecting a large block of text, which is clunky and often insufficient.

Proposed Improvements

   Include the URL in the Prompt: The most critical improvement would be to automatically include the page's URL in the prompt sent to the AI. This would allow the AI to properly "see" and interact with the full page, making tasks like "Summarize" much more effective.

   Allow Custom Prompt Editing: A second, highly beneficial feature would be the ability for users to customize the prompt before it's sent. This would give users more control over the AI's output and enable more creative and specific uses of the feature beyond the pre-set options. This would also allow users to manually insert the URL if needed, as a workaround for the current limitation.

These changes would transform the "Ask AI" feature from a novelty that only works on selected text to a genuinely powerful tool for research, content analysis, and productivity.

Thank you for considering this request.

Every time I login on my computer, there is already an open Firefox webpage with a dialog box asking me if I want Firefox to be my primary default browser. Once I click "Set a Default Browse", a Microsoft Edge webpage appears giving me a list of choices of Microsoft application to select to be my browser. Firefox is not on the list. There is also a dialog box that appears on the lower right corner of the screen showing me the steps on how to make Firefox my default browser. The choices are "Show Me How" and "No Thanks". When I click the "Show me how", I am taken to Firefox setting, once I click the "Make Default" I am taken back to the list of Microsoft applications to choose as my browser. The bottom line is I cannot make Firefox my default browser anymore. In fact, I am not even sure if I am sending this message to Firefox or Mozilla. This is the URL that I see on this https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/new/firefox/form.

Would you please check and correct the problem. I cannot make Firefox my default browser. Would you check if Firefox is my default browser.

However hard I try I cannot prevent Microsoft Edge from being imposed as only choice for browser although I always want Mozilla Firefox. It always over-rides my attempts to change to Firefox

Hi all,

I’ve been experimenting with Firefox’s new AI chat integration and adding custom prompts via `about:config` using `browser.ml.chat.prompts.#`.

Right now, prompt values are static JSON strings, like:

```json {"label":"Answer","id":"answer","value":"Answer selected question"} ```

This works great for fixed text, but there’s no way to dynamically include useful context like the **current page URL**.

For example, I’d like to create a prompt like:

```json {"label":"Summarize w/ URL","id":"summarize_with_url","value":"Summarize this selection. Page URL: {{url}}"} ```

…but currently, `{{url}}` (or similar placeholders) isn’t supported, and the AI chat doesn’t automatically pull the page URL as context.

This means I either have to manually copy/paste the URL or use a separate bookmarklet workaround, which breaks the smooth workflow.

• • Feature request:**

• Add support for variables like `{{url}}`, `{{title}}`, or `{{selection}}` in `browser.ml.chat.prompts`.
• This would make prompts far more powerful and let AI chat automatically reference page context.

Has anyone found a hidden about:config trick for this, or can this be added to Firefox’s roadmap?

Thanks!

This is a new cheap Chinese laptop from Amazon called ANPCOWER. It seemed to be set up to only use Microsoft. I have used Firefox for decades. It changed all my documents to Microsoft and I can't access them anymore..

I feel like I've tried everything to stop Firefox from automatically opening when I start my Windows 11 computer.

I've checked: task manager, the startup folder in Windows 11 (shell:startup), The registry under "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run", Settings>Apps>Startup, and also in Firefox under Settings>"Open Firefox automatically when your computer starts up", and under "about:config">toolkit.winRegisterApplicationRestart (change value to false).

Can anyone tell me why Firefox is still automatically launching at startup of Windows 11?
