From Chrome 138 there's a series of changes to user scripts (chrome.userScripts API) in Chrome Extensions, focusing on enhancing security and providing users with more granular control. This update addresses valuable feedback received from the developer community and their users.

Previously, enabling user scripts required turning on the global Developer Mode toggle within Chrome. We've heard from you that this approach had some key limitations as it relates to security, functionality, and enterprise.

To address these concerns and improve the security and usability of Chrome extensions, we are transitioning from the global Developer Mode toggle to a new per-extension Allow User Scripts toggle.
