Hello Peter,

I did most of the development months ago and I do not remember a lot.

By looking at the mozilla doc[1] you should be find some pointer on how
to enable logging/debugging for extensions.

The line where emacs is launched is at [2].

I do not know a lot of Mac, maybe you miss the emacsclient command or
PATH?  Maybe the run() at [2] does not work on Mac?

A manual test would be to execute on a console something like:

emacsclient 
'org-protocol://capture://https%3A%2F%2Fdeveloper.mozilla.org%2Fen-US%2FAdd-ons%2FSDK%2FTools%2Fconsole%23Logging_Levels/console%20-%20Mozilla%20%7C%
20MDN/console'

If the latter does work the problem should be in the run() call.

Hope this helps,
Daniele
