It's a friend's project and he don't know why the add-on only works when he request desktop site. He wants to run it without that request. Thanks for your time.

He programmed only tabs.onUpdated event (fired when a tab is updated). So it's working only when the state of any property of the tab has been changed, for instance when it goes into the "desktop mode".
