"Extension is invalid

Reading manifest: Error processing background: Value must either: contain the required "page" property, contain the required "scripts" property, or not contain an unexpected "type" property".

I'm on Linux (Kubuntu), tried both the zip and tar.gz, using the Librewolf branch of Firefox. Also, this was on main.

(By the way, heard about this from Louis Rossmann. Even if I can't quite use the extension now, thanks for this. This sounds extremely awesome!)

Could you try my port of the extension to see if it works for you? https://github.com/lnardon/ClintonCAT

I tested on my machine (Ubuntu, Firefox 134.0.2) and got everything working.

Let me know if there's a problem.

This works, but it gave me two warnings when installed.

"Reading manifest: Warning processing background.service_worker: An unexpected property was found in the WebExtension manifest."
"Reading manifest: Warning processing content_scripts.0.type: An unexpected property was found in the WebExtension manifest."

@lucina-da-lucario thanks, I'm on 134.0.2 (macOS) and get the same warnings but 'main' works, please could you tell me your browser version?
@lnardon Thanks again for your code, I'll take a look and see what I screwed up.
