What exactly are you trying to do?

There isn't an extension API yet - at some point it'll be possible to write
Python extensions[1], but WebExtensions (i.e. Chrome/Firefox extensions) will
need support from the underlying engine.

What's possible right now is to run Greasemonkey scripts (see point 18 in the
FAQ[2]) or do some simple things via userscripts[3] (written in e.g. bash or
Python).
