I cannot reproduce, my best guess is that an old binary is still alive somewhere on your system at takes over the new binary.

Check the manifest file in either /Library/Google/Chrome/NativeMessagingHosts or $HOME/Library/Application Support/Google/Chrome/NativeMessagingHosts, look to which browserpass binary it points. Then try to run that binary with -v and check the version.

Another test to do is to rename your file from example.com.gpg to example.gpg, my guess is that extension will complain on the absence of the url property in the file, possibly because of the old host app.

I found a file in $HOME/Library/Application Support/Google/Chrome/NativeMessagingHost

1. com.dannyvankooten.browserpass.json points to a binary that has the version: Browserpass host app version: 2.0.21

I see what's happening. The login URL I was using was actually redirecting me without me noticing! My bad.
