System Documentation
What problem does it solve?
Diagnoses and repairs broken Claude-in-Chrome MCP connections when tabs_context_mcp fails, the Chrome extension stops responding, sockets become stale, or account switching causes mismatched bridge connections. The Skill walks step-by-step from non-invasive checks (logs, LevelDB account checks, Control_Chrome verification) to targeted fixes (socket symlink repair, AppleScript window creation, reconnection URL, pairing page guidance) and finally guided manual re-auth when required. It also records the steps taken and can commit any new learnings back to the local plugin repository for future runs.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Structured diagnostics: Run logs + LevelDB checks to classify failure modes (stale socket, auth failure, account mismatch, Chrome not running).
- Deterministic fixes: Update 0.sock symlink, open pairing pages, run AppleScript to create windows or set URLs, and provide a clear manual re-auth checklist for account switches.
- Scheduled task awareness: Detect scheduled-session limitations and use Control_Chrome as an alternative health check.
- Reporting & continuous improvement: Summarize attempted steps, outcomes, and optionally commit self-reflections to the plugin repo.
- Use case: A user reports "Chrome extension not responding" after switching accounts; run the Skill to identify account mismatch and guide the user through manual re-auth.
