Panel Greeting
Time-aware greeting at the top of the extension panel, with adjustable humor.
Every time you open TelepersonLens, the panel greets you by name at the top of the header. The greeting is time-aware — morning, afternoon, evening, or late night — and you can dial the personality up or down to taste.
How it picks a greeting
The greeting uses your computer's local clock and falls into one of four time buckets:
- Morning — 5:00 AM to 11:59 AM
- Afternoon — 12:00 PM to 4:59 PM
- Evening — 5:00 PM to 9:59 PM
- Late — 10:00 PM to 4:59 AM
For each bucket there's a small pool of variants per humor level, and the panel picks one when it opens. Open the panel again later and you'll usually get a different line.
The greeting only appears when you're signed in — it needs your first name (or, failing that, the local part of your email) to feel like a greeting at all.
Humor levels
Open the panel's Settings (the sliders icon in the header) and look for Greeting humor. There are four options:
- Off — Plain.
Good morning, Jesse. - Warm — Friendly, a little human.
Morning, Jesse. Hope today treats you well. - Witty (default) — Dry, Claude.ai-style.
Burning the midnight oil, eh, Jesse? - Playful — Sillier, a touch unhinged.
It is *late*, Jesse. We don't judge. Mostly.
Picking a level updates the greeting immediately — no panel reload needed. The choice is stored locally on your device, so each install can have its own vibe.
Dismissing the greeting
A small × button sits at the top-right of the greeting. Clicking it hides the line for the rest of the panel session — close and reopen the panel and a fresh greeting comes back. (If you'd rather minimise it permanently, set the humor level to Off for a plain one-liner.)
Privacy
The humor level lives in chrome.storage.local, never in the Supabase
backend. Nothing about the greeting is sent to a server.
