Browser Extension SDK

Overview

Lightweight SDK for integrating Reclaim verification into browser extensions and websites. Handles content-background communication, provider tab management, WebAssembly proof generation, and completion events.

Key Features

• 🔌 Dual Integration: Build extensions or integrate from web apps
• 🛡️ Manifest V3 Compatible: Full Chrome MV3 support
• ⚡ WebAssembly Proofs: High-performance cryptographic proof generation
• 🔄 Event-Driven: Real-time updates via clean event API
• 📦 Pre-built Bundles: No re-bundling required
• 🎯 Auto Provider Management: Automatic tab orchestration
• 🔐 Network Monitoring: Built-in request interception

Two Integration Paths

1. Extension Integration (Primary)

Build a browser extension with Reclaim verification in popup/sidepanel:

• Users trigger verification from your extension UI
• Full control over extension experience
• SDK handles all Chrome extension complexity
• Manifest V3, offscreen documents, service workers
