Goal

• Reproduce and debug issues in the extension with clear logs and minimal guesswork.

Inputs (ask only if missing)

• Where the issue occurs: content script / popup / background (service worker) / options page.
• Browser: Chrome, Firefox, or both.
• Repro steps (URL, actions) if not provided.

Steps

1. Build/run in dev mode
   • Chrome: yarn dev
   • Firefox: yarn dev:firefox
2. Load/refresh the extension in the browser
   • Use the built output under .output/ (e.g., .output/chrome-mv3) as the load-unpacked target
   • After rebuild: reload extension + reload the target page
3. Collect the right console logs
   • Popup: open popup, inspect its console
   • Content: open target page devtools console (content script logs)
   • Background/SW: open extension detail page and inspect the service worker console
4. Narrow down the entrypoint and file
   • Use rg for the feature/keyword and follow imports into shared/
5. Validate suspected fix
   • yarn lint
   • yarn build（and/or yarn build:firefox）
   • If behavior-level: yarn e2e

Guardrails

• Permissions/host_permissions changes are sensitive: ask before changing.
• Avoid adding noisy logs; keep debug logs behind a guard if needed.

Output format

• Repro steps (exact)
• Observed logs/errors (short excerpt)
• Suspected root cause (with file pointers)
• Proposed fix + verification commands
