Enables PSI's browser-based test delivery platform to launch and communicate with local desktop applications during proctored or in-application exams (e.g., testing skills in actual software like Microsoft Office, coding IDEs, etc.)

User logs into PSI's Atlas Cloud platform → starts an in-application test → the web page connects to this extension via chrome.runtime.connectExternal → extension launches a native messaging broker (32-bit or 64-bit) → extension relays commands between the web platform and the native broker → native broker launches the required local application for the exam → test is delivered and results flow back through the chain

Target users: Test-takers using PSI's Atlas Cloud exam platform / Candidates taking professional certification or skills assessments / Users of PSI-affiliated testing services (enlightks.com, skillsbox.com, psiexams.com)

Extension is very small (3 text files, ~196 lines of JS) with minimal surface area to analyze
No UI code exists - extension is purely a background service worker bridge
Cannot verify the native messaging host (com.psionline.lwc.broker32/64) behavior from extension code alone

Monetization

No paid features detected

The extension contains zero billing, subscription, payment, premium gating, or upgrade code. It is a free bridge utility. The PSI testing platform itself is a paid service for organizations, but the extension itself does not gate any features behind payment. All extension functionality is available to any user who has the extension installed.

Confidence: 90
Payment platform: --
Source: AI / High
Login required: Yes
Reason: The extension itself has no login UI or authentication code, but it is a bridge/connector that only functions when the user is on PSI's Atlas Cloud testing platform (psionline.com, psiexams.com, enlightks.com, etc.). Users must be logged into the PSI testing platform to take exams. The extension communicates via chrome.runtime.onConnectExternal with these authorized domains, meaning the user must already be on the platform (and thus authenticated there) to use the extension.
