Troubleshooting

Chrome says this extension is not from the Web Store

Expected for beta sideload builds. Developer mode must stay enabled while you test.

Sign-in does not connect the extension

Reload the extension on chrome://extensions, then sign in again from the side panel. If you are on localhost with an unpacked dev build, confirm the manual pairing prompt on the callback page.

Cloud save fails after sign-in

Check that the packed extension URLs match this deployment. Re-download the latest zip after operator updates.

How do I update?

Download the newest zip, replace the folder, and click Reload on chrome://extensions. There is no auto-update outside the Chrome Web Store.
