This bookmarklet is not working in any of the pages other than figmimic page getting the following console error, tsp.bundle.js:1 Connecting to ' https://mcp.figma.com/mcp/html-to-design/capture.js ' violates the following Content Security Policy directive

Thank you for trying the bookmarklet and catching this issue. I pushed some fixes that should get around the CSP issue by storing capture.js in the bookmarklet. Let me know how it works for you now (you'll have to reinstall).

Earlier quoted context omitted.

That is a good way to get sued for breach of contract. Have you ever read the contract you had to click agree to in order to get access to the internal dashboard? Most likely you agreed to not do what this product does. It is also a very easy win for a company to just focus on the one stolen element or component in a lawsuit to knock competition out of the space and has happened multiple times.
