Answer 1

In your background page (as configured in manifest.json eg):

"background": {
    "scripts": [
        "js/background.js"
    ]
}

You can do the following to disable the extension each time a tab is opened::

chrome.tabs.onCreated.addListener(() => {
    chrome.browserAction.disable();
});

Then later, based on flow call chrome.browserAction.enable();
