WXT already normalises the MV3 manifest (host_permissions, action, web_accessible_resources) into MV2 shape, and the chrome.scripting API used by the background worker is supported in Firefox 102+. No source changes needed — wxt build -b firefox produces a working MV2 bundle. - Add Firefox MV2 build step to CI alongside the Chrome MV3 build so the Firefox target stays green on every push. - Suppress the AMO data-collection-permissions warning; the consent requirement only applies to brand-new AMO listings. - Add web-ext.config.example.ts as a template for the developer-local web-ext.config.ts (already gitignored) that customises browser binaries and start URLs. - Document the Firefox dev workflow and the web-ext.config copy step in the README.
