Building a chrome extension with Node.js? Let us review it.
Expert code review for chrome extensions built with Node.js. We fix Node.js-specific security gaps, optimize performance, and handle deployment. From $19.
Common Node.js issues we find
Real problems from Node.js codebases we've reviewed.
No input validation
Request bodies and query parameters accepted without validation, enabling injection attacks and unexpected data types.
Missing rate limiting
No rate limiting on auth endpoints, API routes, or resource-intensive operations, enabling brute-force and DoS attacks.
Unhandled async errors
Unhandled promise rejections crash the Node.js process in production, taking the entire server down.
Memory leaks
Event listeners not cleaned up, growing arrays/maps, and unclosed connections that gradually consume all available memory.
Chrome Extension challenges to solve
Key chrome extension concerns that AI-generated code often misses.
Manifest V3 compliance
Chrome is migrating to Manifest V3, which changes how extensions work — service workers instead of background pages, restricted remote code execution, and new permission models. AI tools sometimes generate Manifest V2 code that won't be accepted.
Permission minimization
Chrome Web Store reviews extensions for excessive permissions. Request only the permissions you actually need. AI tools often request broad permissions ('tabs', 'storage', 'activeTab') when narrower permissions would suffice.
Content Security Policy
Extensions must comply with strict CSP rules. No inline scripts, no eval(), no remote code loading. AI-generated code sometimes violates these rules, causing the extension to fail silently.
Data privacy
Extensions that access browsing data must have a privacy policy, explain what data is collected, and handle it securely. Chrome Web Store requires this disclosure for approval.
What we check
Key areas we review for Node.js chrome extension projects.
Manifest V3 compliance — service workers, permissions, CSP
Permission minimization — only requesting what's needed
Content security — no eval(), no inline scripts, no remote code
Data handling — privacy policy, secure storage, no unnecessary collection
