Jules + Chrome Extension

Built a chrome extension with Jules?
We'll make it production-ready.

Chrome extensions have unique security considerations — they run in users' browsers with elevated permissions, can access browsing data, and must pass Chrome Web Store review. AI tools can scaffold an extension quickly, but the security requirements, Manifest V3 compliance, and store submission guidelines need careful attention.

Chrome Extension challenges in Jules apps

Building a chrome extension with Jules is a great start — but these challenges need attention before launch.

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.

Cross-browser compatibility

If you want to publish on Firefox, Safari, and Edge too, your extension needs to handle API differences between browsers. AI tools usually target Chrome only.

What we check in your Jules chrome extension

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
Error handling — graceful failures, no silent errors
Performance — efficient background processing, minimal memory usage
Chrome Web Store compliance — metadata, screenshots, descriptions

Common Jules issues we fix

Beyond chrome extension-specific issues, these are Jules patterns we commonly fix.

highBugs

PRs may conflict with concurrent team changes

Jules works asynchronously on tasks that may take hours. While it's working, your team continues committing. The resulting PR can conflict with merged changes in ways that are complex to resolve.

highSecurity

Security-sensitive PRs need careful human review

Jules implements security fixes and auth changes autonomously. Without careful review, a PR that looks correct can introduce subtle security regressions in adjacent code paths.

mediumCode Quality

Jules may not understand implicit project conventions

Jules reads your codebase but can miss undocumented team conventions — naming patterns, error handling styles, and architectural decisions that aren't expressed in code.

mediumBugs

Async PR scope may be too narrow or too broad

Jules interprets task descriptions literally. A fix for one bug may miss related bugs in the same module, or conversely, a feature request may result in sweeping changes you didn't intend.

Frequently asked questions

Can I build a chrome extension with Jules?

Jules is a great starting point for a chrome extension. It handles the initial scaffolding well, but chrome extensions have specific requirements — manifest v3 compliance and permission minimization — that need professional attention before launch.

What issues does Jules leave in chrome extensions?

Common issues include: prs may conflict with concurrent team changes, security-sensitive prs need careful human review, jules may not understand implicit project conventions. For a chrome extension specifically, these issues are compounded by the need for manifest v3 compliance.

How do I make my Jules chrome extension production-ready?

Start with our code audit ($19) to get a clear picture of what needs fixing. For most Jules-built chrome extensions, the critical path is: security review, then fixing core flow reliability, then deployment. We provide a fixed quote after the audit.

How much does it cost to fix a Jules-built chrome extension?

Our code audit is $19 and gives you a complete report of issues. Fixes start at $199 with our Fix & Ship plan. For larger chrome extension projects, we provide a custom fixed quote after the audit — no hourly billing.
