Use when developing Firefox WebExtensions - Manifest V2/V3 configuration, WebExtension APIs, content security policy, web-ext CLI, cross-browser support with the polyfill, AMO submission, or debugging extensions.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

> **Objective:** Use this skill to reduce CSP-violation rejections, manifest-schema breakages, AMO-review failures, and cross-browser compat bugs by enforcing manifest-version discipline, CSP-safe patterns, and web-ext-verification rules below.

# Firefox WebExtension Development

## Core Rules (do X because Y)

- **Use `browser` namespace because** it is Promise-based natively in Firefox, avoiding callback boilerplate.
- **Pin `manifest_version: 3` for new extensions because** MV2 is sunsetting and AMO warns on new MV2 submissions.
- **Always include `browser_specific_settings.gecko.id` because** AMO rejects extensions without a unique ID.
- **Set `strict_min_version: "109.0"` for MV3 because** service workers and the `action` API require Firefox 109+.
- **Use `web-ext run --profile-create-new` for testing because** stale profile state causes false positives.

See `references/apis.md` for the complete WebExtension API namespace list (51 APIs) and usage patterns.

## Manifest V3 Rules

See `references/manifest-v3.md` for the full MV3 manifest schema reference.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add codeatcode/oss-ai-skills/firefox-extension@sha256:384909d496153f64

The line at the top of this page pins the label v2.0.0, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
