FAQ

Q: Why does the extension need a GitHub token?
A: The token is required to authenticate with GitHub's API for pushing files to your repository.

Q: Is my GitHub token secure?
A: Yes, your token is stored securely in Chrome's storage system and is only used for GitHub API calls.

Q: Can I specify which files to push to GitHub?
A: Currently, the extension processes all files in the ZIP. File filtering may be added in future versions.

Troubleshooting

Common Issues

  1. Extension not intercepting downloads

    • Ensure you're on bolt.new
    • Check if the file is a ZIP
    • Verify permissions are enabled

  2. GitHub push fails

    • Verify your token has repo permissions
    • Check repository name and owner
    • Ensure branch exists

  3. ZIP processing errors

    • Check if the ZIP file is corrupted
    • Ensure file contents are text-based

Future Enhancements
