The permissions needed are to read what the url is (to show the icon on the right page) and to update the page with the javascript to add the coloring. There is nothing else happening in the extension.
All the updates so far have been fixing bugs.
Bugs fixed: completely broken, updated js.
Note: I have no affiliation with the site or it's owners. I just wanted to be able to more easily see where I was reading/commenting.
