Matches on content_script dont work

[capoia]

Describe the bug

Hello, first of all thank you very much for your contribution, it has helped me a lot.

I need my extension to work only on a specific URL (the whatsapp one) I needed the extension not to appear on other sites, nor the popup (or be disabled to click if it is outside whatsapp)

I tried adding "matches: ["*://web.whatsapp.com/"]," inside the content_scripts but it doesn't work, how would I do that?
it doesn't add any match statements to the manifest.json inside the extension folder.

There is no way to put a minimum reproduction in this case, because the "problem" happens after you put the extension in the browser

You can see my manifest.ts on the reproduction link.

As you can see, extension works on every page.
