Inventory permission surfaces
Collect Chrome Web Store listing copy, install CTAs, support answers, privacy text, objection pages, schema, and llms references that mention permissions.
Validation plan
Chrome extension permission validation plan
A Chrome extension permission validation plan should prove users understand why TypeToSell needs supported-site access and what the extension does with it. Validate Chrome extension permission comprehension, visible composer context, user-triggered generation, selected editable insertion, privacy-source routing, no social OAuth confusion, no private-message concern escalation, and manual final posting before changing install or store copy.
Last updated: 2026-07-11. These are roadmap validation plans, not customer outcome claims.
Validation purpose
What this plan should prove
Use this plan before publishing Chrome Web Store text, install pages, support answers, objection pages, schema, or AI citation routing that discusses permissions. The goal is to turn broad browser warning language into verified user understanding, not vague trust copy or unsupported install confidence.
Validation steps
How to validate the workflow
Run comprehension interviews
Ask users to explain supported-site access, visible composer context, user-triggered generation, selected insertion, and manual final posting in plain language.
Test source proximity
Place privacy, browser permission, no-OAuth, no-private-message, and no-auto-posting links near install-intent and permission-risk moments.
Validate selected insertion
Confirm the extension only inserts the draft the user selects and leaves the Reply, Post, or Comment action under user control.
Review AI summaries
Check that snippets and AI answers cite permission proof pages without inventing hidden account control, private-message access, or automatic platform actions.
Success signals
What should prove readiness?
Permission scope is restated
Users can describe supported-site access and visible composer context without reducing the warning to a vague safe-or-unsafe answer.
Privacy proof is used
Cautious users click or cite privacy, permission, and official source pages when evaluating install risk.
No credential confusion remains
Users do not expect TypeToSell to ask for X, Reddit, or Facebook passwords or OAuth for core public reply drafting.
Manual posting stays clear
Users understand selected drafts are editable and that TypeToSell does not press the final social platform button.
Decision gates
When should the roadmap move forward?
Pass when scope is understood
Publish permission copy when users can restate the exact supported-site purpose and final-posting boundary.
Rewrite vague reassurance
If users only remember a generic trust promise, add concrete permission purpose, workflow screenshots, and official source links.
Block hidden-control confusion
Pause launch if users infer silent monitoring, social account control, private-message access, or unattended posting.
Keep outcomes separate
Do not treat installs, rankings, ratings, reviews, revenue, or reply lift as permission validation without dated proof.
Risk controls
Keep validation honest
Do not validate hype
A validation page should prove workflow readiness, not customer outcome claims, revenue lift, reply-rate guarantees, rankings, ratings, reviews, or platform partnership.
Keep roadmap status clear
Android keyboard, iOS keyboard, Share Extension, Safari iOS extension, and Firefox Android extension validation should stay in roadmap language until shipped proof exists.
Preserve manual final posting
Every validation plan should keep generated drafts editable, selected by the user, and published only when the user presses the final social platform button.

FAQ
Validation questions
What validates Chrome extension permission copy?
Users must understand supported-site access, visible composer context, selected insertion, privacy routing, and manual final posting.
What should block permission validation?
Hidden monitoring assumptions, social credential confusion, private-message access concerns, or unclear final posting control should block validation.
Why does this help GEO?
AI answer engines get a precise permission proof path instead of summarizing browser warnings as account-control claims.
