The stored apiUrl was required to already carry the `/api` suffix, since
api.js builds requests as `${baseUrl}/credentials`. The options label read
"FC base URL", so entering the instance root -- the natural reading --
sent every request one path segment short: POST /credentials hit the Vue
SPA catch-all and came back 405, and GET /extension/manifest 404'd.
Worse, Test Connection reported success on it: the catch-all answers GET
/credentials with 200 HTML, so `r.ok` was true and the only affordance
meant to catch this misconfiguration actively masked it.
Normalize instead of validate (rules 92, 26):
- New lib/url.js: normalizeApiUrl / webRootFromApiUrl, one source shared
by the background client and the options page. Accepts either the
instance root or the API root.
- api.js normalizes on read, so configs already stored in the broken form
heal themselves without the operator reopening Settings.
- options.js stores the canonical form, echoes back what it saved, and
the test now asserts a JSON content-type -- killing the false green.
- 404/405 in request() now names the URL and points at the setting.
- Options label/placeholder state that both forms work.
Version 1.0.9 -> 1.0.10 in BOTH manifest.json and package.json; build.yml
resolves the release version from package.json, and a stale value there
would hit the cached ext-1.0.9 asset and republish the old XPI unsigned
against the new code.

FabledCurator Firefox Extension
Self-hosted Firefox extension that pushes session cookies from supported platforms (Patreon, SubscribeStar, Hentai-Foundry, Discord, Pixiv, DeviantArt) into FabledCurator, and lets you add a creator as a Source from their page in one click.
Install (operator)
The signed XPI is bundled into the FC Docker image. Open FC → Settings → Maintenance → Browser extension → click "Install Firefox extension". Firefox shows its native install prompt. After installing, open the extension's options page (about:addons → FabledCurator → Preferences) and paste in the FC URL + extension API key shown on the same card.
Develop
cd extension/
npm install --no-save # web-ext only
npm run lint # web-ext lint
npm run start # launches Firefox with extension loaded
npm run build # unsigned XPI in web-ext-artifacts/
Smoke checklist (after every release that touches extension/**)
npm run lintpassesnpm run startloads the extension in a clean Firefox profile- Options page accepts FC URL + key, indicator turns green
- Cookie export: log into patreon.com, click Patreon card → "X cookies exported"
- Discord token: open discord.com, click Discord card → "Token captured"
- Pixiv OAuth: click Pixiv card → login redirects, token stored
- Add as source: visit patreon.com/, click floating button → toast
- Subscriptions list: popup → "Sources" tab → list renders
- Check now: click play icon on source row → no error toast
Release
Bump manifest.json + package.json SemVer (both files) and commit
under extension/**. The .forgejo/workflows/extension.yml workflow
runs web-ext sign on main, commits the signed XPI to
frontend/public/extension/, and the next FC server build bundles it
into the Docker image.
