Key findings
- High
Other
The bundled manifest declares manifest_version 2 and permissions ['tabs','webRequest','webRequestBlocking','*://*/','<all_urls>'], but the live Chrome Web Store summary shows manifest_version 3 with permissions ['tabs','storage'] and host_permissions ['*://*/','<all_urls>']. This mismatch may be due to a delayed update or a different version being listed on the store, but it is a discrepancy that could mislead users about what the extension actually requires.
Analyst notes
The extension is a legitimate Google‑built tool for AMP validation. The code is clean, uses webRequest only temporarily to set a custom User-Agent header for a single validation XHR, and does not collect, store, or exfiltrate user data. The broad permissions are essential for intercepting all page loads and validating content. The published manifest mismatch is a discrepancy but not evidence of malice; the bundled code matches exactly what a validator would need.

About this extension
Automatically checks each page for AMP validation.
Read the publisher’s full description
The AMP Validator will check the current page to see if it is an AMP page and then run it through the AMP validator and report if the page passes (green) or fails (red) via the extension icon. If there are any warnings or errors it'll list the number underneath the extension icon and clicking the icon will display the warnings and/or errors. If the current page is not an AMP page and one is available via <link rel="amphtml" href="..."> the extension icon turns blue and clicking it will load the AMP version of that page. By installing this item, you agree to the Google Terms of Service and Privacy Policy at https://policies.google.com/.
