Research direction

Start by locating and inspecting the zh_CN messages.json file, then attempt to side load the extension into Brave to reproduce the reported failure. Compare the file's characters, message names, and titles against the expected message format; done means the file loads without invalid characters or code and the reported side-loading failure is resolved.
