    Abstract: In general, this disclosure is directed to techniques for enabling an application extension executing as part of an application of a computing device to: automatically predict, based on contextual information associated with the computing device or the application, potential search queries from a set of predetermined search queries, and display graphical elements (e.g., icons, images, or other types of graphical elements) indicative of the predicted search queries within the graphical keyboard. The application extension may analyze the contextual information for use in the search query prediction only after receiving express consent from a user of the computing device to do so. The application extension may execute, or cause to be executed, a search based on a predicted search query in response to the computing device detecting a user input that selects, from directly within the graphical keyboard, the graphical element that is associated with the predicted search query.
