+"""Unit tests for ExtensionService._derive — the URL → (platform, slug)
+parser that gates the browser extension's "Add as source" button and pulls
+the creator slug on probe/add.
+
+Regression cover for #1485: Patreon serves the same creator under three URL
+shapes — bare `patreon.com/Atole`, `c/`, and `cw/` (the "creator workspace"
+URL you land on once SUBSCRIBED). The button used to vanish while subscribed
+because the pattern only matched the bare root and excluded `c/`.
+
+_derive is pure URL parsing (no DB / no async), so a session-less instance is
+fine to exercise directly.
