Install
From the store (recommended)
Once Slopwatch is listed, open its page in Firefox and click Add to Firefox. That’s it — updates happen automatically. (Chromium: Add to Chrome.)
From source (developers)
git clone https://github.com/DisplaceTech/slopwatch
cd slopwatch
corepack enable
pnpm install
pnpm build:firefox
Then load it in Firefox:
- Open
about:debugging→ This Firefox. - Load Temporary Add-on…
- Pick
.output/firefox-mv3/manifest.json.
(For Chromium: pnpm build, then chrome://extensions → enable Developer mode →
Load unpacked → pick .output/chrome-mv3.)
Temporary add-ons reset when the browser restarts — fine for trying it out. For a permanent, auto-updating install, use the store listing.
First run
- Click the robot in the toolbar.
- The popup opens. Open Settings to pick a provider and add a key — or just try the offline Mock provider to see the flow.
- Click Run analysis on this page on any article.
Next: choose a provider.
