Great if it works for you, but it will be more useful if you share your solution with some examples here, to help other people too :)

tl;dr
code:
// popup
const [tab] = await chrome.tabs.query({active: true,currentWindow: true});
if (tab.id === undefined) return;
await chrome.tabs.sendMessage(tab.id, { type: 'do_something' });
// content_script
function listener(msgObj, _, _) {
if (msgObj.type === 'do_something') {
//TODO: do something
}
}
chrome.runtime.onMessage.addListener(listener);
the only sample from google i could find injects a script straight from a popup - you dont need a listener then
https://github.com/GoogleChrome/chrome-extensions-samples/blob/main/functional-samples/reference.mv3-content-scripts/popup.js
My sample use case: i need to show a state in popup.js thats based on information from a content_script.
If you dont need a response (licenseState) you can just replace respond(licenseState);
with your interact with the current tab's DOM
code
This is a sample from react (a hook) but it doesnt matter - same methods.
note for more complex scenarios people usually communicate through a service worker (complex code that would need to run longer than popup is open) so that would be popup -> service_worker -> content_scripts.
// popup/useLicenseStatus.tsx
export const useLicenseStatus = (setLicense: (license: LicenseState) => void) => {
useEffect(() => {
const fetchData = async () => {
const [tab] = await chrome.tabs.query({
active: true,
currentWindow: true,
});
if (tab.id === undefined) return;
const response: LicenseState = await chrome.tabs.sendMessage(tab.id, { type: 'get_license_status'});
console.log('response', response);
if (response !== undefined) {
setLicense(response);
}
};
void fetchData();
});
};
// contentscript.tsx
export function useShareLicenseStatus(licenseState: LicenseState) {
const listener = useCallback(
(msgObj, _, respond: (_: LicenseState) => void) => {
if (msgObj.type === 'get_license_status') {
respond(licenseState);
}
},
[licenseState]
);
useEffect(() => {
chrome.runtime.onMessage.addListener(listener);
return () => chrome.runtime.onMessage.removeListener(listener);
}, [listener]);
}
