Yeah, that's correct. The extension loads a rules_1.json file that just "allow"s all traffic originating from third-party scripts through, then logs just the URL of each request coming from a chrome extension. There's probably a way to do this with chrome.webRequest, I'll experiment with that, but generally that one is more expensive in terms of performance.

Network requests initiated by other extensions in their own context are not visible to other extensions through the webRequest API.


Damn, I was gonna go research it just in case, but then I noticed who posted this. Mad respect for your work!
