Troubleshooting OriginSteward

Chrome Extension Issues

1. "Extension doesn't seem to be working"

  • Symptom: Floating button doesn't appear or nothing happens when you drop content.
  • Fix:
    1. Go to chrome://extensions.
    2. Find OriginSteward Capture.
    3. Click the Refresh (circular arrow) icon.
    4. Refresh your web pages. The extension cannot inject itself into tabs that were already open before it was installed/reloaded.

2. "Not getting successfully updated"

  • Symptom: You drop content, but don't see a "Saved to Brain!" toast message.
  • Fix:
    1. Ensure the backend is running: sh start_brain.sh.
    2. Check if http://localhost:5002 is accessible.
    3. If you see "Failed to save", check the backend logs: tail -f app.log.

3. "Icon missing"

  • Symptom: Error loading extension due to missing icon.
  • Fix: We generated a placeholder icon. Reload the extension in chrome://extensions.

Sync Issues

1. "Last synced" time not updating

  • Fix:
    1. Ensure the daemon is running (ps aux | grep ingest_daemon).
    2. Check daemon.log for errors.
    3. The Web App polls every 2 seconds. If you just dropped something, give it a moment.
