This example adds some CSS using tabs.insertCSS, then removes it again when the user clicks a browser action:

let css = "body { border: 20px dotted pink; }";

function onError(error) {
  console.log(`Error: ${error}`);
}

let insertingCSS = browser.tabs.insertCSS(2, {code: css});
insertingCSS.then(null, onError);

browser.browserAction.onClicked.addListener(() => {
  let removing = browser.tabs.removeCSS(2, {code: css});
  removing.then(null, onError);
});
