Active browser extension immediately on existing tabs

Open chrissimon-au opened this issue 1 month ago • 0 comments

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. Currently, the browser extension registers content scripts, but they don't get loaded on currently open tabs.

So if you are on a tab that you want it active on, and then configure contextive, it looks like it hasn't worked until the tab is reloaded or a new tab is opened.

Describe the solution you'd like

Inject the contextive content script into any open tabs that match the url patterns. Should be resilient to if contextive was already active (e.g. from an existing workspace or url match pattern)

Additional context

See https://github.com/dev-cycles/contextive/discussions/71#discussioncomment-14464949 - "refreshing the page did the trick" highlights the impact of this scenario.
