Prerequisites
The Quilr browser extension covers the Chromium browsers (Chrome, Edge) and Safari that the Endpoint Agent excludes by design. Before deploying, understand its two-component architecture and gather the tenant-specific artifacts.
1 · Understand the two-component model
The Quilr browser extension is not a stand-alone WebExtension. It has two parts that must both be present:
WebExtension
Runs inside Chrome / Edge / Safari. Intercepts AI prompts and uploads at the page level.
Native messaging agent
Installed by MSI (Windows) or pkg (macOS). The extension talks to it via the browser Native Messaging API.
2 · What you need
- Target device must be enrolled in MDM (Intune, Jamf, Kandji, ManageEngine…) or domain-joined to Active Directory. The Quilr extension is distributed off-store (not in the Chrome Web Store / Edge Add-ons), so Chrome and Edge block it from loading unless an
ExtensionInstallForcelist/ExtensionSettingspolicy whitelists the Quilr extension ID (piajhjohgigijkddhdpgbjdcfhmammbk) — and that policy can only be pushed to a centrally managed device. - Tenant ID from support@quilr.ai — used as
TENANT=<TENANT-ID>(MSI) and as a URL path segment (macOS pkg). - Access to the Quilr console at
https://app.quilr.ai/→ Settings → Browser Extension → Deployment. - Admin rights on the target device and your MDM platform.
- Network reachability to
quilr-extensions.quilr.ai(validated in Step 2).
3 · Deployment artifacts
| Platform | Artifacts | Source |
|---|---|---|
| macOS | Tenant pkg + tenant .mobileconfig + shared File-Access .mobileconfig | Tenant URL · Quilr console · public URL |
| Windows | Quilr.msi | https://quilr-extensions.quilr.ai/Quilr.msi |
4 · Key configuration values
| Extension ID | piajhjohgigijkddhdpgbjdcfhmammbk |
| Update manifest | https://quilr-extensions.quilr.ai/<TENANT-ID>/manifest.xml |
| macOS pkg URL | https://quilr-extensions.quilr.ai/<TENANT-ID>/browser-util/quilr-installer-mac.pkg |
| File-Access mobileconfig | https://quilr-extensions.quilr.ai/browser-agent/prod/mac/quilr_browser_util_Files_Access.mobileconfig |
| Windows MSI | https://quilr-extensions.quilr.ai/Quilr.msi |
5 · Network allow-list
- Endpoints must reach the Quilr backplane on TCP 443 (outbound HTTPS).
- TLS-intercepting proxies (Zscaler, Netskope, Symantec, Forcepoint, iboss) must SSL-bypass every Quilr host below — otherwise the proxy re-signs the certificate and the extension’s update fetch / native-agent backplane calls fail.
Shared hosts — all environments (TCP/443)
| Host | Purpose |
|---|---|
quilr-extensions.quilr.ai | Extension CDN — MSI / pkg / vanguard.crx / update manifest / mobileconfig |
discover.quilrai.dev | Tenant discovery (native messaging agent) |
log.quilrai.dev | Diagnostic logs (native messaging agent) |
Tenant-specific base & DLP hosts
The host pair below depends on which Quilr environment your tenant lives in — the row matching the Environment selector in the top bar is the one you need.
| Environment | Base URL | DLP Host | Auth URL |
|---|---|---|---|
| Quartz | https://quartz.quilr.ai | https://dlpone.quilr.ai | https://trust.quilr.ai |
| Secure | https://secure.quilr.ai | https://dlpone.quilr.ai | https://secure.quilr.ai |
| US POC | https://app.quilr.ai | https://dlpone.quilr.ai | https://auth-extension.quilr.ai |
| IND POC | https://platform.quilr.ai | https://dlp-platform.quilr.ai | https://auth-platform.quilr.ai |
| US Prod | https://app.quilrai.com | https://dlpone.quilrai.com | https://app.quilrai.com |
| IND Prod | https://platform.quilrai.com | https://dlp-platform.quilrai.com | https://platform.quilrai.com |
| JP POC | https://app-jp.quilr.ai | https://dlpone-jp-1.quilr.ai | https://app-jp.quilr.ai |

quilr-extensions.quilrai.com (for IND Prod and US Prod) and quilr-hub.quilr.ai (for Secure).URLs to allow for the selected environment
Allow every host below outbound on TCP 443, and SSL-bypass them on any TLS-intercepting proxy. The tenant base & DLP hosts update automatically with the Environment selector in the top bar.
# Shared — all environments
quilr-extensions.quilr.ai
discover.quilrai.dev
log.quilrai.dev
# Tenant base + DLP + Auth — selected environment
app.quilr.ai
dlpone.quilr.ai
auth-extension.quilr.ai6 · MDM browser policy — optional
MDM browser policies (ExtensionSettings / ExtensionInstallForcelist) are only needed if your
organization already centrally manages browser extensions and wants to enforce Quilr through that channel (toolbar
pinning, preventing removal). The MSI/pkg alone is sufficient without existing MDM extension management.
