Pin Side Panel like google search

If you get rid of your popup file and put the following code in your BGSW (background.ts), it will make it so the "action" button open the sidepanel directly, which can then be pinned

chrome.action.onClicked.addListener((tab) =>
    chrome.sidePanel.open({ windowId: tab.windowId })
);

chrome.action.onClicked.addListener((tab) =>
    chrome.sidePanel.open({ windowId: tab.windowId })
);

Loading a content script on a specific tab

In my BGSW, I did this:

import contentTs from "url:~contents/content.ts";

const getFilenameFromImport = (fullFileName: string) => {
    const split = fullFileName.split("/").pop();
    if (split === undefined)
        throw new Error(
            `Issue parsing filename in background.ts: ${fullFileName}`
        );
    const filename = split.split("?")[0];
    return filename;
};

const contentTsFilename = getFilenameFromImport(contentTs);

import contentTs from "url:~contents/content.ts";

const getFilenameFromImport = (fullFileName: string) => {
    const split = fullFileName.split("/").pop();
    if (split === undefined)
        throw new Error(
            `Issue parsing filename in background.ts: ${fullFileName}`
        );
    const filename = split.split("?")[0];
    return filename;
};

const contentTsFilename = getFilenameFromImport(contentTs);

Then I passed contentTsFilename to chrome.scripting.executeScript. As far as I know, there isn't a more "official" way of doing this
