Chrome extension
The Skyelight Chrome extension lets workspace members pin threads on any http
or https page they can open in Chrome. That includes staging sites,
production apps and internal tools behind a login. The site doesn’t need a
script tag or any other setup.
The extension opens in a side panel next to the page. The panel lists the threads in your project, and the page shows a marker on each pinned element.
Install and sign in
Install the extension
Add Skyelight from the Chrome Web Store and pin it to your toolbar.
Sign in
Click Sign in. A window opens at app.skyelight.ai. Sign in with the account you use in the web app, and the panel signs in with it. If the panel shows You’re signed in, click Continue.
If you don’t have a workspace yet, the panel asks you to create an organization, a workspace and a project before you pin.
Chrome extension or review badge
Both create the same threads. The extension is for people who install it. The review badge is for people who won’t, such as clients reviewing a preview.
| Chrome extension | Review badge | |
|---|---|---|
| Best for | Your own team | Clients and reviewers |
| Install | Once, in Chrome | Nothing |
| Works on | Any page you can open | Preview builds you’ve allowed |
| Setup on the site | None | A script tag, usually added by Skyelight Build |
When someone with the extension opens a page that also runs the review badge, the badge doesn’t load and the extension shows the threads instead. The page never shows two sets of markers.
Chrome doesn’t let extensions run on chrome:// pages or on the Chrome Web
Store. On those pages the panel asks you to open a regular page. The
extension also can’t pin inside a
hosted prototype. Use the review badge
there.
