This is the patch I used to get TabFS functioning with Brave:

-              ( "$1" == "chromium" && "$#" -eq 2 && ${#2} -eq 32 ) ) ) ]]; then
-    echo "Usage: $0 <chrome EXTENSION_ID | chromium EXTENSION_ID | firefox>"
+              ( "$1" == "chromium" && "$#" -eq 2 && ${#2} -eq 32 ) || 
+              ( "$1" == "brave" && "$#" -eq 2 && ${#2} -eq 32 ) ) ) ]]; then
+    echo "Usage: $0 <chrome EXTENSION_ID | chromium EXTENSION_ID | brave EXTENSION_ID | firefox>"
    exit 2
fi

As you can see Brave installs to the same place as normal Chrome, instead of its own Brave-Browser/NativeMessagingHosts.

I think it would be helpful to update your documentation site to note that Brave users should use the chrome option.
