### Recommendation to Implementers
When `window.nostr` is injected by a browser extension, it may not be fully available until a certain point in the page's lifecycle. Hence, it is a good idea to invoke the first `window.nostr` based functionality after a user-action on the web page (like a button click), and not during the page load.
### Recommendation to Extension Authors
To make sure that the `window.nostr` is available to nostr clients on page load, the authors who create Chromium and Firefox extensions should load their scripts by specifying `"run_at": "document_end"` in the extension's manifest.
Calling the `window.nostr` based methods during the page load runs the risk of intermittent issues due to race conditions between the client page's script and the extension's script
