Tell me when Chrome breaks my extension
Right now, if Chrome changes something that affects an extension you already built, you find out when it stops working or when the Chrome Web Store rejects your update. Nobody tells you.
The request: PlugThis should watch for those changes and tell you which of your extensions are affected.
What it would look like:
An alert when a Chrome policy or API change touches something one of your extensions actually uses. Not a general newsletter about Chrome, but "your extension X uses this API and it is being removed in Chrome N".
A one-click fix from that alert, so the extension can be updated for the new requirement without you having to work out what changed.
A note of which Manifest version and which APIs each of your extensions depends on, so the matching is accurate rather than guesswork.
Why it matters: Manifest V3 removed the blocking webRequest API and a lot of extensions died because of it. That will happen again. People who built something a year ago and stopped thinking about it are the ones who get hurt, and they are exactly the people who cannot fix it themselves.
