The extension linked nothing and the resolver saw no requests: the content script
fetched http://localhost:8787 directly from the HTTPS reddit page, which reddit's CSP /
mixed-content blocks. Move the network call to a background script (extension origin,
exempt) and add stage logging so failures are visible.
- extension/background.js (new): does the resolver fetch on message; sets the toolbar badge.
- extension/content.js: talks to background via runtime messaging (no page-context fetch);
[rsl] console logs at boot/root/candidates/resolve/scan; single primary link.
- extension/manifest.json: background.scripts + browser_action (icon.svg, title).
- extension/{styles.css,icon.svg}: platform-coloured link (green=spotify, teal=bandcamp) + toolbar icon.
- service/lib.js: primaryOf()/isSearchUrl() — link Spotify when the artist is on Spotify,
else Bandcamp, else Spotify search; spotifyResult/mbResult attach `primary` (unit-tested).
- README: link behaviour, toolbar, Troubleshooting.
Verified: scripts/check.sh green (10 tests); resolver returns `primary` end-to-end. The
in-browser fix is logic-verified only (no headless Firefox here) — reload the temp add-on
and watch the page console `[rsl]` logs to confirm.

The Odesli/Songlink API rejects artist URLs (405 UNSUPPORTED_URL — it is song/album
only), so the planned Odesli hop is not viable for artist linking. Pivoted to
MusicBrainz `inc=url-rels`, which returns the artist's official Bandcamp + Spotify
URLs directly, zero-cred:
- service/lib.js: relUrls() extracts direct bandcamp/spotify from MB relations;
mbResult() prefers them, falls back to search URLs per-platform (replaces searchResult).
- service/resolver.js: viaMusicBrainz now does search -> url-rels enrichment (both
throttled through one gate); resolveOne calls it directly.
- service/lib.test.js: +3 tests (relUrls + mbResult); 9 total, green.
- README: document the direct-link behavior.
Verified zero-cred end to end: "Cattle Decapitation" -> open.spotify.com/artist/... +
cattledecapitation.bandcamp.com/ (both direct, not search); nonsense -> null.
Source: task/odesli-direct-links (objective/linker-improvements); approach changed from
Odesli to MB url-rels after the API probe; goal (direct Bandcamp) achieved.

Firefox MV2 content script that detects artist/band names in reddit comment
threads and rewrites them inline into Spotify + Bandcamp links, backed by a tiny
zero-dependency Node resolver that confirms each candidate against the Spotify Web
API (direct links) or MusicBrainz (zero-setup, search links). Includes build +
install instructions in the README.

"Full vibe code, small service, minimal code."
Closes task/resolver-service, closes task/firefox-extension, closes task/docs-and-publish
(plan/mvp-build, objective/ship-mvp-linker).
