Problem

src/popup/views/addToken.js:1 imports:

const { $, showFlash, goBack } = require("./helpers");

but src/popup/views/addToken.js:24 calls showView("add-token"). showView
is not in scope and there is no global, so show() throws a ReferenceError
every single time.

Effect: clicking "+ Token" on AddressDetail does nothing visible, and it
corrupts the navigation stack — pushCurrentView() in
src/popup/index.js:76-79 has already pushed "address" before the throw, so
the user's subsequent "Back" behaviour is wrong.

This makes the AddToken screen documented at README.md:489-501 and the
"Adding ERC-20 Tokens" flow in docs/README.md completely unreachable. The
only working add-token path today is Settings -> SettingsAddToken.

Regression introduced by a22f33d ("fix: implement proper view navigation
stack (#146)"), which rewrote the import from { $, showView, showFlash } to
{ $, showFlash, goBack }.

Implementation requirements

Add showView back to the destructured import in addToken.js:1. Verify
against src/popup/views/helpers.js that showView is exported and that
goBack/showFlash are genuinely still used in this module; drop any that
are not rather than leaving unused imports behind.
Confirm the nav-stack interaction is correct after the fix: entering
AddToken from AddressDetail and pressing "Back" must return to
AddressDetail exactly once, with no stale entry left on the stack.
Do not paper over this with a try/catch or a global.
This bug and #(TransactionDetail ERC-20 crash) are the same class of defect
(used-but-not-imported) and are invisible to make check because
script/lint is only prettier --check. The systemic fix is tracked
separately as the ESLint issue; this issue is the point fix only.

Definition of done

"+ Token" on AddressDetail opens the AddToken screen.
The common-token quick-pick buttons populate the contract address field.
Adding a token by contract address returns to AddressDetail and the
token appears in the balance list.
"Back" from AddToken returns to AddressDetail, and a second "Back"
returns to Home (no duplicated or orphaned stack entry).
A regression test covers this. Since the views are currently untestable
(no jsdom environment configured), either add the jsdom test env and a
test that addToken.show() does not throw, or — if that proves
disproportionate — state in the PR why, and ensure the ESLint issue will
catch the class instead.
TODO.md updated in the same commit.
make check passes.

## Problem `src/popup/views/addToken.js:1` imports: ```js const { $, showFlash, goBack } = require("./helpers"); ``` but `src/popup/views/addToken.js:24` calls `showView("add-token")`. `showView` is not in scope and there is no global, so `show()` throws a `ReferenceError` every single time. Effect: clicking "+ Token" on AddressDetail does nothing visible, **and it corrupts the navigation stack** — `pushCurrentView()` in `src/popup/index.js:76-79` has already pushed `"address"` before the throw, so the user's subsequent "Back" behaviour is wrong. This makes the AddToken screen documented at `README.md:489-501` and the "Adding ERC-20 Tokens" flow in `docs/README.md` completely unreachable. The only working add-token path today is Settings -> SettingsAddToken. Regression introduced by `a22f33d` ("fix: implement proper view navigation stack (#146)"), which rewrote the import from `{ $, showView, showFlash }` to `{ $, showFlash, goBack }`. ## Implementation requirements - Add `showView` back to the destructured import in `addToken.js:1`.
