Ah! There's no /usr/local/bin/emacsclient, but on my Mac, I have /Applications/Emacs.app/Contents/MacOS/bin-x86_64-10_5/emacsclient When I set the extension to use that, I get a new frame with a buffer named Org-capture%20for%20Firefox, but there's nothing in it and it doesn't seem to correspond to a file. Progress. Thank you! -pd
