## DevTools Console Checks

Open DevTools (F12 or Cmd+Opt+I), check Console:

### Expected Messages
```
✅ Context Bridge: Loaded on ChatGPT

```

### Should NOT See
```
❌ Uncaught ReferenceError
❌ CORS policy blocked
❌ Failed to fetch
❌ XSS warning
```

### Network Tab
First click:
- Should see GET request to gist URL
- Status: 200
- Size: ~1-100KB (depending on context)

Second click (within 5 min):
- No network request (cached!)

---

## Performance Check

### Memory (Chrome Task Manager)
```
Initial load:   ~15-20MB
After 1 hour:   ~30MB (stable)
After 100 uses: ~35MB (stable)

❌ RED FLAG: Growing memory (50MB+ and increasing) = leak
```

### CPU
```
Idle: 0%
Button click: <5% spike
Insertion: <10% spike

❌ RED FLAG: Constant 10%+ CPU usage = runaway process
```
