}| Problem | Fix |
|---|---|
| Extension not loading | Ensure |
| Posts not being filtered | Check that filters are saved in popup; open DevTools on x.com and check console for errors |
| API key errors | Verify key is stored via Settings panel, not hardcoded; check provider dashboard for quota |
| Local model not loading | Browser must support WebGPU ( |
| Filtered count not updating | MutationObserver may have detached; reload the page |
| TypeScript errors on build | Run |
