It sounds like you need to add an ID to the file, along the lines described here:

https://developer.mozilla.org/docs/Mozilla/Add-ons/WebExtensions/manifest.json/browser_specific_settings

You can find the source files in the src folder, and the one you need to edit is manifest.json:

https://github.com/DavidBuchanan314/Turbo-Recadmiumator/blob/master/src/manifest.json

As cor-el suggests, extension development is beyond the scope of this forum, but if there really are only 3 files, it should be fairly simple to fix.
