- Add Firefox as an install target with native messaging manifest support.
- Generate Firefox-specific extension packages with Gecko metadata and AMO-compatible manifest transforms.
- Keep tab group commands available in Firefox through dynamic tab group API helpers.
- Avoid Firefox linter warnings for static tab group API references and direct eval tokens.
- Add Firefox packaging and installer regression coverage.
- Bump the package and extension version to 0.15.1.
- Change nav open and open-wait to avoid activating newly created tabs unless
--focus is explicitly requested.
- Send background=true for default opens so older or remote extensions also
avoid stealing focus even if they ignore the new focus flag.
- Remove the redundant --bg flag from navigation and search CLI commands now
that no-focus/background behavior is the default.
- Thread focus support through the sync SDK, async SDK, tab helpers, and
workflow decorators.
- Update README and demo usage to document the new default and --focus opt-in.
- Bump package and extension metadata to 0.12.3.
- Add regression coverage for CLI help, wire payloads, and extension behavior.
- Split client, native, remote, serve, markdown, and SDK internals into focused packages with direct imports.
- Move local and remote transport framing/protocol helpers behind clearer module boundaries.
- Break up the extension injected DOM logic into a separate content dispatch bundle and dedicated content modules.
- Add explicit client handling for passive remote discovery without noisy PQ warnings.
- Keep behavior covered with updated unit, integration, and extension tests.
Restructure the MV3 background worker from a monolithic core.ts/index.ts
into a class-based command architecture. Behavior is identical — the 83
registered commands dispatch byte-for-byte the same as before.
Structure
- One class per command group, each extending CommandGroup and exporting a
`commands` map keyed by the full command id ("tabs.close"). Groups:
Navigation, TabsMutation, TabsQuery, Groups, Windows, Dom (dom/extract/
page), BrowserData (storage/cookies), Session (session/clients + autosave
+ lazy-tab activation), Perf (perf + jobs.status/cancel), Extension.
- CommandRegistry merges the group maps (throws on duplicate ids), routes
background specs to JobManager and paginates array results via
makePagedData. JobManager owns the job map + lifecycle. NativeConnection
owns the native-port lifecycle and the inbound message router.
- index.ts is now thin wiring: JobManager -> ctx -> assembleRegistry ->
onActivated -> NativeConnection.start().
- Infra classes live in classes/ (PascalCase, file = class name); command
groups in commands/; shared helpers split out of core.ts into core/
(errors, throttle, scripting, tab-helpers, group-helpers, storage); all
types moved into types/ (json, jobs, session, tabs, messages,
command-args) behind a barrel.
DRY cleanup
- resolveTabUrl(tabId) and assertScriptableUrl(url, action) collapse the
tab/URL-guard boilerplate duplicated across dom.ts and browser-data.ts.
- processInBatches() centralizes the throttled, cancellable batch loop
shared by tabs.close, group.close and tabs.merge_windows.
- captureCurrentSession() dedups the snapshot-and-signature block shared by
session.save and the autosave path.
- DomArgs type alias replaces 21 inline ContentArgs & { tabId? } copies.
- Drop fetchTabHtml's redundant retry loop (executeScript already retries
transient frame/tab errors), a dead tabInfo import, and two stale
comments referencing a removed asArgs helper.
Type safety & tests
- Full noImplicitAny; no `any`/`unknown` annotations remain in src.
- JS unit-test harness using node --test + node:assert (zero new deps),
bundled via the existing esbuild. Covers JobManager retention/lifecycle
and the autosave listener-wiring/debounce with an in-memory chrome mock.
- The structural pytest checks track the new file homes and the centralized
processInBatches helper.
Verification: npm run check:extension green (tsc + esbuild 84.5kb +
node --check + 18 JS tests); uv run pytest -q -> 409 passed, 105 skipped.
No version bump.
- Add shared browser error URL detection for Chrome, Edge, Brave, and Firefox-style about:error pages.
- Short-circuit read-only DOM and HTML commands with safe fallbacks when tabs are already on browser error pages.
- Fail navigation waits, DOM waits, polling, and URL watches with clearer error-page messages.
- Bump package and extension version to 0.9.8 and extend regression coverage for cross-browser error-page handling.
