Implements bQuery/bQuery#205 — the DevTools extension, rebuilt in TypeScript on top of BrowserExtensionTemplate, replacing the ~330-line untyped reference scaffold that lived in the framework's extension/ folder.

What's here

Protocol layer (src/protocol/)

  • Typed panel-side bridge client for protocol v1: hello retry until the page answers, capability negotiation from the init handshake, request/response correlation with per-request timeouts, and reconnection that rejects everything in flight.
  • The published protocol version and capability union are pinned through typeof import('@bquery/bquery/devtools') type queries. That's a type-only reference — the page-side bridge runtime is never bundled — but an upstream protocol bump becomes a compile error here rather than a silent runtime mismatch. The contract is enforced by the type-checker.
  • Every message and every method result from the page is schema-validated (parseOutbound, results.ts); malformed members are dropped, tree recursion is depth-capped, and a message from a different protocol version is rejected outright.

Transports (src/transports/) — the manifest ships with no host permissions.

  • EvalTransport (default): talks to the page via chrome.devtools.inspectedWindow.eval, which a panel may use on the page it inspects without site access. It installs a small in-page relay that buffers bridge messages and drains it on a poll; the install is idempotent, so it self-heals across navigations.
  • PortTransport (opt-in): "Enable live streaming" in the status bar asks for the current site's origin permission on the click, injects a content-script relay, and switches to push. Falls back to polling on any failure.

Routing (src/background/router.ts) — one worker serves every panel, so routes are keyed by inspected tab; panel→page is forwarded only to the tab that port attached to and only with the session token the router issued, page→panel only by sender.tab.id (which a page cannot forge).

Panel UI — Web Components rendering from a reactive PanelState.

  • Component tree with tag/attribute search that keeps matches reachable through their ancestors; clicking a node calls inspect() on the real element. Nodes are addressed by structural path, because the framework's node id is derived from DOM child indices and is not unique across sibling subtrees.
  • Signals and stores with lazy drill-down into nested values.
  • Timeline with a configurable ring buffer, per-type filter chips, search, pause and clear.
  • Time travel replays recorded events onto the connect-time snapshot. Event payloads are app-defined, so replay is tolerant and honest: each row is labelled replayed, unchanged or not recorded — an uninterpretable payload keeps the last known value rather than inventing one. Reconstruction never writes back to the page.

Notable fixes found while building

  • The E2E suite caught a real race: events streamed during the getTimeline seed fetch were being discarded when the seed reset the buffer. seedTimeline now carries them over, de-duplicated by recorded identity. Two regression tests cover it.
  • Modules registering custom elements were being dropped as type-only imports, leaving <bq-status-bar> and <bq-inspector> unupgraded; they now carry explicit side-effect imports.

Security

The inspected page is treated as untrusted. Page-derived text only ever reaches text sinks (panel/dom.ts sets textContent, never innerHTML); inline styles go through style.setProperty because the panel CSP forbids style attributes and inline script; panel→page messages are embedded as JSON data in the evaluated expression, never spliced into its source. An E2E test asserts that a component named '&lt;img src=x onerror=…&gt;', an <b>-tagged signal label and a <script> in a timeline detail all render as text and set no global.

Quality gates

  • 153 unit tests (bun test) over the protocol, transports, router and panel logic — these modules are deliberately DOM-free.
  • 9 Playwright E2E smoke tests that serve the built dist/ and drive the real panel bundle against a fixture page speaking protocol v1 (Playwright can't open a real DevTools panel; this is the closest faithful harness).
  • tools/verifyBuild.ts gates packaging: missing entry points, unreplaced branding tokens, a content script that became an ES module, or host_permissions creeping back in all fail the build.
  • CI: type-check, lint, format check, unit tests, both build targets + verifier + packaging, and the E2E suite. A release workflow builds, verifies, packages and checksums MV3/MV2 artifacts into a draft release.

Docs

README (quick start, permissions table, security model, protocol reference), CONTRIBUTING, docs/ARCHITECTURE.md (layering, trust boundaries, why two transports), docs/PUBLISHING.md (Chrome Web Store + AMO, including the permission justifications reviewers ask for), and a CHANGELOG.

Out of scope for this repository

Phase 6 of the ticket — deleting extension/ from bQuery/bQuery and updating the references there — is a change to the framework repository and needs a separate PR there. Everything in phases 1–5 is done here.

Verification

bun run validate    # type-check + lint + 153 unit tests — green
bun run format:check
bun run deploy-v3 && bun run verify && bun run package   # chromium-mv3 zip
bun run deploy-v2 && bun run verify && bun run package   # firefox-mv2 zip
bun run test:e2e    # 9 passed

Both artifacts build and verify as loadable. The extension has not been loaded into a real browser's DevTools in this environment — that's the one check worth doing by hand before merge.

Estimated code review effort: 5 (Critical) | ~120 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟠 High · up to 5ec9f

The PR currently has unresolved compatibility and correctness issues that can leave the Firefox extension unavailable, stop capability negotiation, display incorrect time-travel state, and interrupt core panel interactions; its publishing guidance also makes inaccurate data-disclosure claims. These are high-impact merge-readiness risks and should be fixed before merge.

CI status: 4/5 green, the red one is a repository setting

Check Result
Typecheck, lint and unit tests
Build chromium-mv3
Build firefox-mv2
E2E smoke test
Analyze (javascript) — CodeQL not this PR's

Why CodeQL is red

The analysis itself succeeded — it scanned 47 of 53 TypeScript files and exported SARIF without a single alert. The job then failed on the upload step:

##[error]Advanced Security must be enabled for this repository to use code scanning.

This is a repository configuration state, not a code defect, and it is not caused by this branch: the same workflow failed identically on main at the Initial commit (run #1, push event, 3f1f6c7) — before this branch existed. A re-run would reproduce it deterministically, so I have not spent one; the base-branch run is the stronger evidence.

There is no code fix to port

The fix is an admin toggle, not a commit: Settings → Code security → Code scanning, enable CodeQL analysis. For a public repository this is free; for a private one it needs a GitHub Advanced Security licence. Nothing in .github/workflows/codeql-analysis.yml can work around it — the upload endpoint is gated server-side.

I have deliberately not touched that workflow. Deleting it or marking it continue-on-error would turn a security check green by silencing it, which is not mine to decide.

Unrelated observation, for whoever picks that up

While reading the log: codeql-analysis.yml still pins actions/checkout@v3 and github/codeql-action/*@v2, which now emit Node 20 deprecation warnings and are being forced onto Node 24. Worth bumping to checkout@v4 / codeql-action@v3 in a separate PR — it will not fix the failure above, so I have left it out of this one rather than widening the diff.

Pushed: signed release artifacts (35b8f41)

The last open item from the ticket's phase 4 — "release workflows producing signed artifacts". The workflow packaged zips but produced nothing verifiable.

Browser extensions aren't signed the way a binary is; each store signs what it distributes. So the workflow now does what is actually available per target:

  • Build provenance for every artifact via actions/attest-build-provenance (Sigstore). No secrets, so it runs on every release, and anyone can tie a zip to the commit and workflow that produced it:
    gh attestation verify bquery-devtools-1.0.0-chromium-mv3.zip --repo bQuery/devtools-extension
    For a store-distributed extension this is the guarantee that matters.
  • An AMO-signed .xpi via web-ext sign --channel unlisted, gated on AMO_JWT_ISSUER / AMO_JWT_SECRET. Without those secrets the step is skipped, not failed — the release still ships the unsigned MV2 zip for manual upload.
  • Nothing for Chrome, deliberately: the Web Store re-signs every upload with its own key and assigns the extension id, so a self-signed CRX would just be discarded. Self-hosted CRX distribution needs a private key this repo shouldn't carry.

The .xpi only exists when signing ran, so the checksum and attestation steps build their file list with nullglob rather than assuming the glob matches. I exercised both cases (with and without an .xpi present) before pushing — the earlier version would have fed actions/attest-build-provenance a non-matching pattern on any release without AMO credentials.

docs/PUBLISHING.md gains a Signing section covering all three.

Phase 6 is now open too

The migration half of the ticket — removing extension/ from the framework repo and updating its references — is bQuery/bQuery#207.

Please merge that one after this one, or the framework docs will point at a repository whose extension hasn't landed yet.

That closes out all six phases of bQuery/bQuery#205.

Replaces the template scaffold with a typed, tested DevTools extension that
speaks the stable `@bquery/bquery/devtools` bridge protocol (v1), fulfilling
the bootstrap, rebuild, UI, quality-gate and documentation phases of the
extraction ticket.

Protocol
- Typed panel-side client: handshake with retry, capability negotiation,
  request/response correlation, per-request timeouts and reconnection.
- The published protocol version and capability union are referenced through
  `typeof import(...)` type queries, so an upstream protocol bump becomes a
  compile error here instead of a silent runtime mismatch — and no page-side
  runtime is bundled into the extension.
- Every message and method result from the page is schema-validated; malformed
  members are dropped and tree recursion is depth-capped.

Transports and permissions
- Default `EvalTransport` talks to the page through
  `inspectedWindow.eval`, which needs no host permission; the manifest ships
  with an empty `host_permissions`.
- Opt-in `PortTransport` upgrades to push streaming after the user grants a
  single origin permission, via an on-demand content-script injection.
- Background router isolates routes per inspected tab and checks the session
  token it issues on attach.

Panel UI (Web Components)
- Component tree with tag/attribute search and click-to-reveal in the Elements
  panel, addressed by structural path rather than the non-unique node id.
- Signals and stores inspectors with lazy drill-down into nested values.
- Timeline with a configurable ring buffer, type chips, search, pause, clear.
- Time travel replays state onto the connect-time snapshot, labelling each row
  as replayed, unchanged or not recorded rather than inventing values.
- Page-derived text only ever reaches text sinks; the CSP forbids inline
  script and inline style.

Quality gates
- 153 unit tests (bun test) plus 9 Playwright E2E smoke tests that drive the
  real built panel against a fixture page speaking protocol v1.
- CI runs type-check, lint, format check, unit tests, both build targets with
  a manifest verifier, and the E2E suite; a release workflow packages signed
  store artifacts for Chromium (MV3) and Firefox (MV2).

Docs
- README, CONTRIBUTING, architecture notes and a publishing guide for the
  Chrome Web Store and AMO.
…ning

The release workflow packaged zips but produced nothing verifiable, which
left the "signed artifacts" half of the release requirement unmet.

Browser extensions are not signed like binaries — each store signs what it
distributes — so this does what is actually available per target:

- Build provenance for every artifact via actions/attest-build-provenance
  (Sigstore). No secrets, so it runs on every release, and anyone can tie a
  zip to the workflow and commit that produced it with
  `gh attestation verify <file> --repo bQuery/devtools-extension`.
- An AMO-signed .xpi via `web-ext sign`, gated on AMO_JWT_ISSUER /
  AMO_JWT_SECRET. Absent those secrets the step is skipped, not failed, and
  the release still ships the unsigned MV2 zip for manual upload.
- Nothing for Chrome: the Web Store re-signs every upload with its own key,
  so a self-signed CRX would be discarded.

The .xpi only exists when signing ran, so the checksum and attestation steps
build their file list with `nullglob` instead of assuming the glob matches;
both cases were exercised before committing.

Documents the whole story in docs/PUBLISHING.md.

CodeQL (js/unvalidated-dynamic-method-call, high) on tests/e2e/fixture.ts:
the E2E fixture's page-side bridge looked its handler up as
`methods[String(message['method'])]` on a plain object literal, so a method
name off the wire resolved through the prototype chain.

The finding is real, and reproducing it is instructive:

- `method: "constructor"` dispatched to `Object` and answered `{}`
- `method: "toString"` answered `"[object Undefined]"`
- `method: "__proto__"` resolved to a non-callable, threw, and sent no reply
  at all — the request simply hung

A `Map` has no prototype-chain lookup, so unknown names now fall through to
the existing "Unknown method" error path.

The fixture stands in for the inspected page, which the panel treats as
untrusted throughout; it should not be sloppier than the thing it models.

Adds an E2E test that sends all three names and asserts each is answered
with an error. Verified it fails against the object-literal version before
the fix and passes after.
CodeQL (actions/missing-workflow-permissions) flagged all three ci.yml jobs:
without an explicit permissions block the workflow inherits the repository
default, which can be write.

Nothing in CI writes to the repository — it checks out, installs, builds,
tests and uploads artifacts (upload-artifact uses the runtime token, not the
GITHUB_TOKEN scopes) — so one workflow-level `contents: read` covers every
job. release.yml already declared its own, narrower-by-intent block and was
not flagged.

Correction: CodeQL is live now, and it found four real things

My earlier comment said CodeQL was red for a repository setting with no code fix available. That is no longer true — Advanced Security has since been enabled, CodeQL actually ran, and it reported four alerts, all of them mine and all now fixed. Correcting it here so nobody acts on the stale note.

Alert Where Fix
Unvalidated dynamic method call (high) tests/e2e/fixture.ts 4220a27
Workflow does not contain permissions ×3 .github/workflows/ci.yml d3b42bd

The high one was genuine. The E2E fixture dispatched methods[String(message['method'])] off a plain object literal, so constructor dispatched to Object and answered {}, toString answered "[object Undefined]", and __proto__ resolved to a non-callable, threw, and left the request hanging with no reply. Now a Map, with an E2E test that fails against the old version and passes against the new one. Details in the resolved thread.

The three workflow alerts were ci.yml inheriting the repository-default GITHUB_TOKEN scope; it now declares contents: read at workflow level.

Also folded in: main moved while this branch was open (the new codeql.yml), so the branch carries it — that was the "1 configuration not found" half of the earlier failure.

One thing left for a maintainer

The repository now has two CodeQL workflows running in parallel:

  • codeql-analysis.yml — the original template one, javascript only, still on actions/checkout@v3 and codeql-action@v2 (deprecated Node 20)
  • codeql.yml — the new advanced setup, javascript-typescript + actions, on @v4

The new one strictly supersedes the old. Deleting codeql-analysis.yml would be the tidy-up, but removing a security workflow isn't a call I'll make unilaterally inside this PR — say the word and I'll do it here, or it can go in its own PR.

Follow-up to 4220a27. Swapping the object literal for a Map removed the
prototype-chain dispatch, but CodeQL still reported the high alert on the
invocation site after a fresh analysis of the fixed head, and the alert
count did not move across a re-run.

Rather than argue with the query about whether a Map lookup counts as a
user-controlled method name, the dispatch is gone entirely: a switch returns
data, so user input picks a branch and never selects a callable. Nothing is
left for js/unvalidated-dynamic-method-call to point at.

The existing regression test (constructor / toString / __proto__ each get an
"Unknown method" error) still covers the behaviour, and the default branch is
now what produces that error.
The runner reports these on every CI job:

  Node.js 20 is deprecated. The following actions target Node.js 20 but are
  being forced to run on Node.js 24: actions/checkout@v4,
  actions/upload-artifact@v4

Both move to v7, matching what bQuery/bQuery already runs and what GitHub's
own generated codeql.yml pins here. Only the parameters this repo uses (ref,
name, path, if-no-files-found, retention-days) are involved, and those are
unchanged across the majors.

oven-sh/setup-bun@v2 is deliberately left alone — the runner does not list it,
so it is already on a supported Node.

`tools/*.ts` is compiled to `tools/*.js` by `bun run build-tooling`, and
every one of those outputs was listed in .gitignore — except this one.
tools/verifyBuild.ts was added after that list was written, the matching
entry was missed, and the generated file went into the repository.

Replaces the enumeration with a `tools/*.js` glob so the next tool cannot
repeat the mistake, and untracks the file.

Nothing depends on it being committed: `deploy-v3` and `deploy-v2` both run
`build-tooling` before the verify step, and `bun run verify` regenerates it
itself. Checked by deleting every tools/*.js and running the CI sequence from
that state — build-tooling regenerates them and verifyBuild reports the
manifest loadable for both MV3 and MV2.

This test does not exercise the clamping branch it names.

The buffer holds 10 entries and the new capacity is 50, so setBufferSize never enters the index >= this.buffer.size branch of PanelState.setBufferSize. Rename this case, and add a case that shrinks the buffer below the replay index.

Inline comments:
In @.github/workflows/release.yml:
- Around line 63-70: Update the signing step condition to require both
AMO_JWT_ISSUER and AMO_JWT_SECRET to be non-empty before running web-ext
signing; leave the existing signing command unchanged.

In `@docs/ARCHITECTURE.md`:
- Line 10: Label the architecture diagram code fence in ARCHITECTURE.md with the
text language identifier, changing the opening fence to ```text while preserving
the box drawing and closing fence.

In `@docs/PUBLISHING.md`:
- Around line 96-97: Update the Privacy guidance in PUBLISHING.md to remove the
claim that the extension collects or transmits nothing; distinguish local
page-data inspection from off-device transmission, and align the Chrome Web
Store data disclosure and privacy policy with the extension’s handling of
component, signal, store, and timeline data.

In `@src/panel/components/inspector.ts`:
- Around line 46-51: Update the replay stores mapping in the entries
construction to preserve item.state for unresolved stores, matching
reconstructAt and the signals branch; retain the “not recorded” metadata badge
for item.unresolved, and remove the now-unused UNKNOWN_VALUE import or reference
from the module.

In `@src/panel/components/timelineView.ts`:
- Around line 145-161: Preserve each interactive input element across reactive
renders instead of replacing it via replaceChildren, so active interaction and
focus remain intact. Apply this to the timeline range control in
src/panel/components/timelineView.ts lines 145-161, the tree-search input in
src/panel/components/componentTree.ts lines 24-38, and the timeline filter input
in src/panel/components/timelineView.ts lines 116-130; reuse the existing nodes
while still updating their rendered state and handlers as needed.

In `@src/panel/state.ts`:
- Around line 189-196: Update the timeline refresh flow around getTimeline so
buffered events are read immediately before buffer.reset(), preserving events
that arrive while the request is pending. Merge that complete buffered set with
the seeded entries, deduplicating via entryKey, then reset and extend the buffer
without restoring the stale pre-request snapshot.
- Line 160: Update the component refresh assignments in src/panel/state.ts at
lines 160-160 and 169-169: always assign result.flat and snapshot.components to
their respective component registries, including when the arrays are empty, so
successful empty refreshes clear stale entries.
- Around line 145-146: Update the flow around refreshSnapshot, seedTimeline, and
reconstructAt to use a consistent replay base: capture the snapshot and its
corresponding timeline cursor atomically, then replay only timeline entries
recorded after that cursor. Ensure historical entries predating the snapshot
cannot be applied over newer snapshot values.

In `@src/protocol/client.ts`:
- Around line 246-264: Track handshake completion separately from the display
connection state: only the init-response handling should set the handshake flag,
while streamed events must not stop hello retries. Update scheduleHello to
continue sending and rescheduling until that flag is set, and clear it in
handleStatus for both 'closed' and 'error'.

In `@src/protocol/results.ts`:
- Around line 119-120: Update the snapshot parsing guard in parseSnapshot to
reject arrays as well as non-record values before reading state, ensuring
malformed array results return null and cannot overwrite state through
PanelState.refreshSnapshot.

In `@src/settings.ts`:
- Around line 88-91: Update the loadSettings bootstrap promise chain to handle
render failures: add rejection handling after the then callback, log the caught
error, and display an appropriate user-facing error message so the options page
does not fail silently.

In `@src/transports/evalTransport.ts`:
- Around line 103-107: Update the default evaluator assigned to this.evaluate so
Firefox’s Promise-based extensionApi().devtools.inspectedWindow.eval handles
fulfillment and rejection by invoking the existing Evaluator callback contract,
while retaining the callback-based behavior required by Chromium.

In `@tests/e2e/panel.spec.ts`:
- Around line 211-238: Update the reply-collection promise in the evaluate
callback to resolve as soon as answers.length reaches the three expected
replies, while retaining a timeout only as a fallback for reporting missing
responses. Preserve the existing message filtering and listener cleanup in the
collect handler.

Thirteen findings, each verified against the code before acting. Three were
outright bugs my own tests were shaped to miss.

Bugs
- evalTransport: Firefox's `browser.devtools.inspectedWindow.eval` is
  promisified and treats the second argument as options, so the callback was
  never invoked, the transport never left `connecting`, and every request
  timed out. The Firefox target was effectively dead. Both shapes are now
  normalized onto the Evaluator contract.
- Interactive controls were destroyed by their own reactive re-render: each
  view reads the signal its input writes, then rebuilt the subtree, detaching
  the focused element. Typing "item" into the component filter left "i".
  Reproduced first, then fixed by building the toolbars once and rebuilding
  only the lists. The E2E suite missed this because `fill()` sets a value in
  one operation; the new regression test types character by character.
- client: a streamed event arriving before `init` set the state to connected,
  which stopped the hello retries for good — capabilities stayed empty while
  the status bar claimed success. The hello loop now runs off an explicit
  handshake flag that only `init` sets.

Correctness
- state: `seedTimeline` read the buffer before awaiting `getTimeline`, so
  events arriving during the request were dropped by the reset. This is the
  same class of bug as 3c69094's, one window further in; the read now happens
  after the await.
- timeTravel: entries older than the base snapshot are no longer replayed —
  they describe state the snapshot already supersedes, so applying them moved
  signals backwards onto known-stale values. Reported as `skippedCount`.
- state: an empty component list from a successful refresh now clears the
  registry instead of leaving stale counts on screen.
- results: `parseSnapshot` rejects arrays, which `isRecord` admitted and which
  parsed into an empty snapshot that wiped signals and stores.
- inspector: unresolved stores keep the state `reconstructAt` preserved,
  matching the signals branch; the badge already says "not recorded".
- valueTree: Date, RegExp, Error, Map and Set no longer describe as `{}`.
- settings: a failed render is caught and shown instead of becoming an
  unhandled rejection behind a blank options page.

Release and docs
- release: signing requires both AMO credentials, so a missing secret no
  longer runs web-ext with an empty one.
- PUBLISHING: the store privacy guidance said the extension "collects and
  transmits nothing". Chrome counts website content as user data and the panel
  reads plenty of it; what is true is that none of it leaves the machine. The
  guidance now says that instead.
- ARCHITECTURE: the diagram fence is labelled (MD040).

Tests
- Timestamps in the time-travel tests were incidental defaults that predated
  the base snapshot; they are explicit now, with dedicated cases for the new
  skip rule and its boundary.
- The buffer-resize test never reached the clamping branch it named, because
  capacity cannot fall below MIN_BUFFER_SIZE. Renamed, and a real case added
  that fills past the minimum first.
- The prototype-chain E2E case settles on the expected reply count rather than
  a fixed 200ms delay.

156 unit tests, 11 E2E tests, both build targets verified loadable.
…apps

bQuery is modular and its bridge is a public contract, so the page on the
other end is often not a complete framework: an app may load `reactive`
without `store`, run devtools without mounting a component, or hand-roll a
bridge server implementing two of the four methods. The panel assumed a
complete one.

The worst of it was structural: `refreshAll` chained the three fetches
through `Promise.all`, so a page that implements `getTimeline` but not
`getSnapshot` got no timeline either — one missing method took the whole
panel down. The fetches now run independently and none of them rejects.

Capabilities from the `init` handshake are now a hint rather than a gate.
`createBridgeServer` advertises the full list regardless of which modules an
app actually loaded, and a trimmed bridge may advertise nothing while
answering everything, so `panel/features.ts` tracks per feature what the page
has actually proved:

- a capability the page never advertised is probed once per connection, so a
  bridge that advertises nothing still lights up;
- a method the page refuses is not asked again until the next handshake or an
  explicit "Refresh all", so an absent feature costs exactly one request;
- a snapshot carrying `signals` but no `stores` key reads as "the page does
  not report stores", not a confident and wrong "0 stores" — and no longer
  wipes a component registry that `getComponentTree` filled in;
- a section written off comes back by itself once a later snapshot carries
  it;
- with no component tree but a snapshot that lists components, the tree view
  shows that flat registry instead of an empty panel;
- time travel is gated on having a base snapshot and recorded events, since
  the panel reconstructs it — the page is never asked to do anything.

A page answering in a protocol version this panel cannot read is now named
("the page speaks bridge protocol v2…") instead of leaving the panel in
"waiting for the page" while the page answers every hello. The messages are
still discarded, and the handshake keeps retrying so a navigation recovers.
Capabilities the page advertises that this build has no view for are surfaced
too — the visible symptom of an extension older than the app it inspects.

`KNOWN_CAPABILITIES` is now derived from a total `Record` over the published
capability union, so a capability added upstream fails to compile here rather
than silently producing a feature nobody renders.

Adds 7 unit tests for the feature model, 12 covering the state machine and
protocol, and 5 E2E tests driving the panel against partial bridges.
