handleRpc(...).then(sendResponse) had no .catch(), and sendResponse is the only
thing that settles the dApp's window.ethereum.request() promise. Any throw
inside handleRpc therefore sent nothing back: the content script posted nothing,
and the page's promise stayed pending forever with no error and no timeout,
indistinguishable from a slow wallet. handleRpc does real work -- state loads,
provider calls, transaction population, approval plumbing -- so "it does not
throw today" was not a property anyone was maintaining.
A rejected handleRpc now answers { code: -32603, message }. -32603 is the
JSON-RPC internal error EIP-1474 defines and EIP-1193 defers to for RPC-layer
failures; no EIP-1193 4xxx code describes "the wallet broke" and none was
invented for it. The cause is not put in the message: the page gets a stable
sentence, the background console gets the method and the throw, so the failure
is visible rather than swallowed.
The two async IIFEs behind AUTISTMASK_TX_RESPONSE and AUTISTMASK_SIGN_RESPONSE
are the same shape one level down. Every statement is inside a try, but a throw
from one of the catch blocks escapes as an unhandled rejection and neither the
popup nor the page is answered. Each gets a last-resort .catch() that settles
the approval through settleApproval() -- the existing chokepoint, with no new
delete or resolve -- and answers the popup. The transaction one reports the
broadcast stage, because it cannot tell whether the transaction reached the
network and that is the wording that does not invite a second send. Every other
message handler on the path is synchronous and cannot leave a promise pending.
Each of the three is driven by a real failure rather than a hook in the handler:
a rejecting extension-storage read, which getState() awaits unguarded, and a
failure classifier that throws while classifying a genuine verification failure.
All three were demonstrated failing against the unfixed code, the RPC one with
sendResponse at zero calls, which is precisely the page-side hang.
