## Prompt 1: Ghost Variables (Logic Layer)

**Target files (modify only these):**
- `prompt-lab-extension/src/promptUtils.js`
- `prompt-lab-extension/src/hooks/usePromptEditor.js`

**Do NOT modify:** `App.jsx`, `background.js`, `manifest.json`, `platform.js`, or any other file.

### Context

Prompt Lab has a template variable system. When a user loads a saved prompt containing
`{{varName}}` placeholders, the app extracts the variable names, shows a form for the
user to fill in values, then substitutes them into the prompt text.

Current flow in `usePromptEditor.js` (line 294):

fill the variables

This prompt has 1 variable. Pro fills them into a ready-to-paste prompt for you — no manual find-and-replace.
