### AI Translation Bot
([English](README.md) | [简体中文](README_zh.md) | [日本語](README_ja.md))

This extension uses multiple AI models (such as DeepSeek, Gemini, ChatGPT) via their respective APIs to translate the selected text into your desired language. It supports 20+ languages and can be used with a proxy.

This is a completely free and open-source project. You can configure your API key in the settings page of the extension. It will be stored locally, ensuring no risk of leakage.

## Features

- Allows use of proxy and custom headers for users who access AI models through a proxy.
- Supports 20+ languages.
- Provides one-click API connection diagnostics and remote model list updates directly from the settings page.

**Attention:** Whenever you change the shortcut keys, you need to refresh the page to make the new shortcut take effect.
But if you change the target language, you don't need to refresh the page, the new language will take effect immediately.

#### Advanced Features:
- If you use a proxy to access an AI model, check the `Use proxy` option and fill in a proxy address.
if your proxy needs some custom headers, You can fill in the custom headers by checking the `Add custom headers` option.

## About use proxy in this extension

## Common issues   
- **Can't translate the selected text and always show 'Translating...'**

**Solution:** Please check your network connection and ensure the AI model’s website (e.g., ChatGPT or others) is accessible. If you require a VPN to access the AI models, confirm that the VPN is turned on. If these steps don't resolve the issue, confirm that you’ve pre-billed your API account, as some models now require pre-billing to use their API.
