As of roughly a week ago, extensions that rely on native messaging seem to no longer be able to communicate with desktop apps.
MacOS 15.0.1
Current Orion version (known buggy): 0.99.129-beta (WebKit 619.1.11.111.2)
Haven't been able to revert to an older version of Orion to test yet, but a public release from the beginning of October should work.
Examples of failing extensions:
Installing StopTheMadness Pro (either Chrome or FF versions) on a clean profile results in the following error: "Settings Error: Missing settings 0".
Installing Bitwarden (Chrome) on a clean profile and attempting to enable biometric authentication results in the error message "Awaiting confirmation from desktop - Please confirm using biometrics in the Bitwarden desktop application to set up biometrics for browser." Nothing happens on the desktop app.
On a profile with these extensions already set up and previously working, StopTheMadness Pro displays the same "Missing Settings 0" error but modifies pages according to the latest rules set before the Orion update, and attempting to unlock the Bitwarden vault with biometrics results in a permanent spinning wheel with "Awaiting confirmation from desktop".
