Description

I see multiple "Click here…" nodes:

Image

This is not ideal, not only because of a11y (there are people who can not click), it also takes up horizontal space and adds noise.
I'd phrase it more direct:

  • "Retry to connect…"
  • "Update Credentials…"

Research direction

Search the extension for the literal "Click here" and inspect each matching UI node. Replace the generic labels with direct actions such as "Retry to connect…" and "Update Credentials…", then verify that all affected actions are clear and no longer use the generic wording.
