[BUG] the Chrome extension blocking navigation to gohighlevel.com is unexpected behavior, not a feature request.
Preflight Checklist
- [x] I have searched existing issues and this hasn't been reported yet
- [x] This is a single bug report (please file separate reports for different bugs)
- [x] I am using the latest version of Claude Code
What's Wrong?
The Claude in Chrome extension (ID: fcoeoabgfenejglbffodgkkbkcdhcgfn)
blocks navigation to gohighlevel.com with the error: "Navigation to this
domain is not allowed."
The block originates from fetchCategoryFromAPI in the extension's
mcpPermissions file, which calls Anthropic's server-side domain
categorization API. The domain is being categorized as blocked server-side,
and there is no way for the user to whitelist it locally — the Chrome
extension options page has no "Add site" button or domain allowlist.
GoHighLevel (gohighlevel.com / app.gohighlevel.com) is a legitimate
business CRM/marketing platform used by thousands of businesses. Blocking
it prevents the Claude agent from performing authorized CRM tasks on behalf
of the user.
Expected: Navigation to gohighlevel.com should be allowed, or users should
have a way to whitelist specific domains in the extension settings.
Actual: Hard block with no workaround available to the end user.
What Should Happen?
Claude in Chrome should be able to navigate to gohighlevel.com
so agents can perform authorized CRM tasks on the user's behalf.
