Develop / Build

npm install
npm run start   # dev watch
npm run build   # prod build (development endpoint)

Load unpacked in Chrome

1. Run npm run build to generate dist/.
2. Open chrome://extensions.
3. Enable Developer mode (top right).
4. Click "Load unpacked" and select this folder.
5. The popup loads from popup.html, scripts from dist/.

Package for Chrome Web Store

You need a ZIP of the extension directory (no node_modules, sources compiled to dist/). Use the script below:

# Default: production endpoint
./scripts/package.sh

# Or choose env explicitly: development | test | production
./scripts/package.sh production

This creates release/<name>-<version>-<env>.zip ready for upload.

1. Create a developer account at the Chrome Web Store Developer Dashboard.
2. Click "New Item" and upload the ZIP from the release/ folder.
3. Fill in listing details, privacy, and permissions justification.
4. Submit for review.
