1. Install the extension

Mushy Six is published on the Chrome Web Store -- works the same way in Chrome and Arc (both are Chromium-based and use the same extensions system).

1. Click the button above and then click Add to Chrome (or Add to Arc).
2. "Mushy Six" appears in your extensions list. Pin it to the toolbar: click the puzzle-piece icon in your browser toolbar, then click the pin next to Mushy Six.

2. Generate a personal access token

The extension needs a token to know which Mushy Six account to save things to. You generate this once and paste it into the extension.

1. Log in at Mushy Six, then go to Settings.
2. Under Browser extension, click Generate new token.
3. Copy it immediately -- it's shown only once. If you lose it, just generate a new one (and revoke the old one if you want).

3. Connect the extension

1. Right-click the Mushy Six icon in your toolbar and choose Options.
2. Paste the token from step 2 into Personal access token.
3. Click Save & test connection. It should say "Connected as @yourusername."

4. Save something

Right-click any image, video, or a direct link to a .gif/.mp4/.webm/.png/.jpg/.webp file on any page, and choose Save to Mushy Six. A banner on the page and a notification both confirm it worked, or explain why it didn't (e.g. the site blocks hotlinking, or the file's too large).

Troubleshooting

• No context menu item? Right-click directly on an image or video element, or a link that ends in a supported file extension -- right-clicking empty page background won't show it.
• "Invalid or revoked token"? Generate a fresh token in Settings and reconnect.
• "Could not reach Mushy Six"? The site may be temporarily down -- try again in a moment.
• "Server misconfigured"? That's on the Mushy Six server, not your token -- try again later.
