test: drive the EIP-1193 dApp approval round trips in the browser (closes #183)
The seam between the content script, the inpage provider, the background worker
and the approval popup had no coverage at all. The unit suite covers each side
in isolation, so a wallet that signed the wrong payload, handed back a signature
from the wrong key, hung on a rejected prompt, or put the user's password back
on the extension messaging boundary would have passed everything.

Ten end-to-end tests now drive it. The route handler serves a local test page on
a reserved-TLD origin; window.ethereum arrives there from the shipped MAIN-world
content script, not from anything the fixture installs, and the page's own
EIP-6963 announcement is required to be that provider by object identity. The
page then speaks eth_requestAccounts, personal_sign, eth_signTypedData_v4 and
eth_sendTransaction through the real prompts, approved and rejected.

The assertions are the point:

  - every signature is recovered in the runner with verifyMessage,
    verifyTypedData and Transaction.from(), and compared against the active
    address read out of extension storage. The background verifies too; nothing
    here leans on its verdict.
  - the transaction is checked against the raw signed bytes captured at
    eth_sendRawTransaction, which the RPC stub now records and answers with the
    transaction's real hash. Signer, recipient, value, call data and chain id
    are all compared there, and the hash the page received is required to be the
    hash of those bytes.
  - a rejected prompt must reach the page as a rejection rather than hang or
    resolve, and must carry EIP-1193 code 4001 across the boundary. The code is
    asserted on the wire because that is where it survives: the inpage provider
    rebuilds the rejection as a bare Error, so the calling page catches a message
    and no code. Reported, not asserted either way.
  - the password must appear in no message the approval window sends to the
    background, observed directly by wrapping chrome.runtime.sendMessage before
    Approve is clicked, with the response message that would carry it required
    to be present so the check cannot pass on an empty record.

Every one of those was run against a deliberately broken variant and seen to
fail: a corrupted recovered signer, a payload carrying the password again, a
provider that resolves instead of rejecting, and approval screens displaying the
wrong message, value and call data.

Two honest limits. The RPC is stubbed throughout, so this does not discharge a
real dApp with real funds against a real network. And the site-connection prompt
goes through chrome.action.openPopup(), whose browser-action popup headless
Chromium will not expose as a page, so that one prompt is driven at the URL the
extension puts on the action instead — same page, same approval id, but a real
toolbar click is not observable from a headless harness. Both are stated in
README.md rather than presented as covered.

Test-only: nothing under src/ changes.

# Workflow
- `git pull` `next` and cut a branch from it — one branch per issue, named
`issue-<N>-<slug>`. Never branch from `main`.
- Do the work as one commit whose title ends with ` (closes #N)`, with the
`TODO.md` update in that same commit.
- Move Next Step to the top of Completed Steps; move the top item of Future
Steps into Next Step.
- Run `make fmt`, then `make check`. A feature branch may be red; `next` and
`main` may not.
- Rebase onto current `next` immediately before pushing — other branches land on
`next` continuously — and re-run `make check` after resolving, because a clean
textual merge can still break the build.
- Push the branch and open one PR per issue with base `next`. Never base `main`.
- An independent reviewer who did not write the change gates the merge. On a
passed review the PR is squash-merged into `next`.
- `next` is the branch for the next milestone. It is kept green and mergeable to
`main` at any moment, without notice.
- `main` receives exactly one PR per milestone, from `next`. Releases are tagged
from `main`.
# Status
pre-1.0, working towards the 1.0.0 milestone. Tagged v0.1.0 on 2026-02-27. The
milestone is in flight on `next`; its `next` -> `main` PR is
[#190](https://git.eeqj.de/sneak/AutistMask/pulls/190). `make check` verified
green on `next` at `e9fa8be` on 2026-08-10, and `make build` produces
`dist/chrome/` and `dist/firefox/` with every bundle verified to have `DEBUG`
compiled off.
The backlog lives on the
[Gitea tracker](https://git.eeqj.de/sneak/AutistMask/issues), which is
authoritative; this file does not duplicate it. Full policy file set present.
Real-browser end-to-end suites (`make test-e2e` for Chrome,
`make test-e2e-firefox` for Firefox) now sit alongside `make check`, which
cannot see a runtime `ReferenceError` in a popup view.
# Next Step
Land [#152](https://git.eeqj.de/sneak/AutistMask/issues/152): add ESLint to
`script/lint`. `make check` is `prettier --check` only today and cannot catch
undefined identifiers, which is how
[#150](https://git.eeqj.de/sneak/AutistMask/issues/150) and
[#151](https://git.eeqj.de/sneak/AutistMask/issues/151) shipped.
# Completed Steps
- 2026-08-12: The dApp approval round trips are driven end to end in the
browser. A test page served by the harness speaks EIP-1193 to the real inpage
provider through the real content script, background worker and approval popup
for `eth_requestAccounts`, `personal_sign`, `eth_signTypedData_v4` and
`eth_sendTransaction`. Every signature is recovered and compared against the
active address, the transaction is checked against the bytes handed to the
stubbed RPC, each rejection must reach the page as a rejection, and the
password must appear in no message the approval window sends — the assertion
that gives [#157](https://git.eeqj.de/sneak/AutistMask/issues/157) a permanent
floor. This does not discharge a real dApp with real funds against mainnet
([#183](https://git.eeqj.de/sneak/AutistMask/issues/183)).
- 2026-08-12: A containerized Firefox end-to-end harness
(`make test-e2e-firefox`) drives the real popup in a real Firefox with the MV2
build installed as a temporary add-on. Zero npm dependencies — a WebDriver
client over `fetch` against geckodriver — with `node`, Firefox 153.0.3 and
geckodriver 0.36.0 all pinned by digest. Uncaught errors are read from the
privileged console service in Marionette's chrome context, because BiDi
`log.entryAdded` reports nothing at all for extension pages; each drain reads
and clears the console in one chrome round trip, so no error is destroyed
unread by the drain itself, and errors logged during add-on install and
background startup are folded into step 1 instead of being cleared. The two
measured limits are documented rather than claimed away: the console ring
buffer holds 250 messages (a clean run peaks at 4), and the drained window
ends ≈1.5s after the last step returns. Demonstrated discriminating by exiting
1 on a `throw` at the top of `src/background/index.js`, on a build with one
import removed, on a `setTimeout` throw whose UI assertions all pass, on an
unhandled `Promise.reject` and on an undefined identifier in `home.js`, and 0
on the branch as it stands
([#184](https://git.eeqj.de/sneak/AutistMask/issues/184)).
- 2026-08-12: The transaction a dApp asks for is now populated in the background
before the approval window opens, so the object the user is shown is the
object the signed artifact is verified against — nonce, gas limit and every
fee field are compared exactly instead of being left to the ceilings, which
stay as a backstop against what a lying RPC node can talk the wallet into
displaying. The approval also pins the address it was raised for, so an
address switch between approval and signing refuses rather than signing from
an account the screen never named, and a request naming an address that is not
the active one is refused outright. The approval screen now shows the fee, gas
limit, network and nonce it vouches for
([#216](https://git.eeqj.de/sneak/AutistMask/issues/216)).
- 2026-08-12: The restored navigation stack is filtered against
`RESTORABLE_VIEWS` on load, truncated at the first entry the popup would not
render so that every surviving entry keeps the Back target it had. Back after
reopening can no longer land on a view the popup declined to restore, such as
`export-privkey` or `show-phrase`
([#224](https://git.eeqj.de/sneak/AutistMask/issues/224)). Restorable views in
the stack are still unhidden without being re-rendered; that is tracked
separately in ([#268](https://git.eeqj.de/sneak/AutistMask/issues/268)).
- 2026-08-12: One wording for a rejected password on every screen that asks for
one — the send confirmation and the delete-wallet confirmation no longer say
"Wrong password." (a fragment, which `RULES.md` Language & Labeling forbids)
and the two reveal screens no longer say "not correct", so all five
`decryptWithPassword` call sites now show the sentence the dApp approval paths
introduced. Strings only, no behaviour change, and each error container
measured at a 360px viewport in the pinned Playwright container
([#172](https://git.eeqj.de/sneak/AutistMask/issues/172)).
- 2026-08-12: Closed the empty-array hole in the end-to-end unstubbed-request
guard. `batch.every()` is vacuously true on `[]`, so a POST with body `[]` was
answered `200 []` instead of failing the suite; the guard now rejects an empty
batch, demonstrated green-before/red-after with a throwaway probe. The comment
claiming `postData()` returns `null` for undecodable bodies was corrected to
the two real paths — an absent or empty body decodes to `null`, a binary body
decodes lossily into invalid JSON
([#187](https://git.eeqj.de/sneak/AutistMask/issues/187)).
- 2026-08-12: The transaction confirmation screen has browser coverage. The
end-to-end suite reaches ConfirmTx for both the native ETH and the ERC-20 path
off a funded-balance fixture, and asserts the pending, funded, over-balance
and estimate-failed states, the fee block quoting the estimate and the reserve
separately, and a constant view height across every one of those transitions.
The load-bearing assertion is that the spend gate reads the reserve and not
the displayed estimate: swapping the two fails the suite
([#238](https://git.eeqj.de/sneak/AutistMask/issues/238)).
- 2026-08-12: The dust threshold field now explains a rejection instead of
snapping back in silence, with the parse in a pure, unit-tested module that
accepts plain decimal digits only — hex and exponent notation are refused
rather than read as 16 and 1000
([#233](https://git.eeqj.de/sneak/AutistMask/issues/233)).
- 2026-08-12: Approval verification became an allowlist — transaction type
restricted to 0/1/2 so an EIP-7702 delegation can no longer ride along on an
approved transfer, every consequential field compared, the artifact
re-serialized from the checked fields alone and its exact bytes required to be
the canonical encoding of what was broadcast. One approval now yields at most
one broadcast, and every path that retires a pending approval — popup close,
active-address change, a late reject — goes through a single chokepoint that
refuses to settle an attempt already claimed for signing and broadcast
([#174](https://git.eeqj.de/sneak/AutistMask/issues/174)).
- 2026-08-12: An address can be removed from an HD or xprv wallet behind a
confirmation screen that states nothing is destroyed, sharing the deletion
state transitions with wallet deletion so the selection, site permissions and
active-address broadcast follow the same rules
([#162](https://git.eeqj.de/sneak/AutistMask/issues/162)).
- 2026-08-12: The known-symbol spoof rule moved into `src/shared/symbolSpoof.js`
and is now the only copy. The balance list had exempted symbols the token list
maps to `null``"ETH"` alone — so a fake ETH ERC-20 was hidden from the
transaction history and the Send selector but listed as a holding named ETH. A
symbol with no legitimate contract may now be borne by no contract on any of
the three surfaces, and the native exemption is "has no contract address", so
a second null-mapped symbol needs no call-site change. The user's real ETH
balance is read over RPC and never passes through the rule
([#235](https://git.eeqj.de/sneak/AutistMask/issues/235)).
- 2026-08-12: `script/verify-build`'s failure modes are now a committed target,
`script/test-verify-build`, run by `make check`. It asserts the exit status
and the message of every case against a fixture tree in a temp dir, and drops
privileges (proving the runner against a mode-000 file first) for the cases
that only mean something when file permissions are in force
([#227](https://git.eeqj.de/sneak/AutistMask/issues/227)).
- 2026-08-12: WaitTx lifecycle: a receipt and the 60-second timeout can no
longer both render on one tick, no timer or in-flight lookup outlives its
wait, a failed receipt lookup no longer counts as a timeout (but six in a row
end the wait, reported as an unreachable network rather than as a timeout),
and the wait now resumes after a popup close
([#155](https://git.eeqj.de/sneak/AutistMask/issues/155)).
- 2026-08-12: The private key export screen now wipes the key from the page
whenever it is left by any route, and a decrypt still in flight when the
screen is left is discarded instead of written; the same `onViewLeave()`
cleanup was extended to every other screen holding secret material in the DOM
(AddWallet, ConfirmTx, DeleteWallet, ApproveTx, ApproveSign)
([#221](https://git.eeqj.de/sneak/AutistMask/issues/221)).
- 2026-08-12: An xprv wallet already in storage that was imported from a
non-master key is detected from the depth of its stored `xpub`, explained in
the wallet list, and blocked from signing, sending and private-key export
instead of throwing on the send screen
([#234](https://git.eeqj.de/sneak/AutistMask/issues/234)).
- 2026-08-12: An unreported `holders_count` is now parsed as `null` rather than
`0`, so the low-holder rule declines to judge an unknown count instead of
hiding a legitimate token as spam, in both the transaction history and the
Send token selector ([#230](https://git.eeqj.de/sneak/AutistMask/issues/230)).
- 2026-08-12: Bundled token list documentation no longer states a count. The
four "top 250" claims in `README.md` and the "roughly 500" claim in
`docs/README.md` are replaced with a description of how the list is actually
selected — a point-in-time CoinGecko snapshot of the highest-market-cap
Ethereum mainnet ERC-20s — with `TOKENS` in `src/shared/tokenList.js` named as
the authoritative set
([#239](https://git.eeqj.de/sneak/AutistMask/issues/239)).
- 2026-08-11: libsodium runs on WebAssembly in the shipped builds —
`'wasm-unsafe-eval'` added to both manifest CSPs after measuring the wasm2js
fallback at 20x the Argon2id cost, pinned in both directions by
`tests/manifest.test.js` and observed in the real popup by the e2e suite
([#182](https://git.eeqj.de/sneak/AutistMask/issues/182)).
- 2026-08-11: Known-symbol spoof verification became a Settings toggle
(`hideSpoofedSymbols`), on by default, governing the transaction-history
filter and the fraud-contract learning it feeds
([#176](https://git.eeqj.de/sneak/AutistMask/issues/176)).
- 2026-08-11: `script/verify-build` now walks `dist/` NUL-delimited and asserts
`dist/` is a real directory, so a path with a trailing space or a newline can
no longer carry a debug marker past the unlisted-bundle check
([#223](https://git.eeqj.de/sneak/AutistMask/issues/223)).
- 2026-08-11: UTC Timestamps checkbox moved from the Token Spam Protection well
into Display, next to the theme selector
([#212](https://git.eeqj.de/sneak/AutistMask/issues/212)).
- 2026-08-11: Network fee counted in the confirmation-screen balance check for
both ETH and ERC-20 sends, reserving what the node actually charges a type-2
transaction, with the arithmetic in a pure, unit-tested
`src/shared/txValidation.js`
([#154](https://git.eeqj.de/sneak/AutistMask/issues/154)).
- 2026-08-11: A dust threshold of `0` now means "hide nothing" instead of
falling back to the 100,000 gwei default, and every address comparison in
`src/shared/transactions.js` goes through one case-normalising helper so a
checksummed genuine contract is no longer read as a spoof
([#179](https://git.eeqj.de/sneak/AutistMask/issues/179)).
- 2026-08-11: Password-gated recovery phrase display for HD wallets, reached
from the wallet row in Settings, wiped on leaving the screen and excluded from
the views the popup can reopen onto
([#161](https://git.eeqj.de/sneak/AutistMask/issues/161)).
- 2026-08-11: Extended-key import hardened — the base58 checksum is now enforced
on every xprv and xpub, and a non-master key is refused with an explanation
instead of being derived beneath
([#210](https://git.eeqj.de/sneak/AutistMask/issues/210)).
- 2026-08-11: the balance refresh and the 24-hour phishing list refresh moved
from `setInterval` to the extension alarms API, with the phishing delta and
its fetch timestamps persisted to extension storage, so neither job dies with
the MV3 service worker. Each job's freshness guard was decoupled from its
alarm period at the same time — timed to the period, a guard vetoes its own
scheduled tick and halves the real refresh rate
([#158](https://git.eeqj.de/sneak/AutistMask/issues/158)).
- 2026-08-11: Policy compliance sweep — conditional verbose test rerun, local
Tailwind binary instead of `npx`, `--frozen-lockfile` on `make install`, and
the Makefile-only targets documented in the README
([#166](https://git.eeqj.de/sneak/AutistMask/issues/166)).
- 2026-08-11: `script/verify-build` diagnostics corrected: the both-markers
message now states what is and is not proven, an unreadable bundle is
diagnosed as an I/O fault rather than as changed output, the `*.js` assumption
lives only in `build.js`, and the unlisted-bundle scan hard-fails when it
cannot enumerate `dist/`
([#180](https://git.eeqj.de/sneak/AutistMask/issues/180)).
- 2026-08-11: Known-answer test coverage for the crypto core — BIP-39/BIP-32
derivation in `wallet.js` and the Argon2id vault in `vault.js`
([#159](https://git.eeqj.de/sneak/AutistMask/issues/159)).
- 2026-08-11: Three `README.md` claims corrected against the code — blocklist
attribution, token-display rule, navigation model
([#213](https://git.eeqj.de/sneak/AutistMask/issues/213)).
- 2026-08-11: README Screen Map rebuilt from the code — every screen, element
and transition re-verified against `src/popup/`
([#164](https://git.eeqj.de/sneak/AutistMask/issues/164)).
- 2026-08-11: `docs/README.md` rewritten against the code: no competitor names,
all five network destinations documented, password/Settings/Add Wallet
sections corrected ([#163](https://git.eeqj.de/sneak/AutistMask/issues/163)).
- 2026-08-11: `loadState()` now derives `hasWallet` from the wallet list instead
of trusting the persisted flag, so a profile already saved inconsistent no
longer stays broken on every load
([#195](https://git.eeqj.de/sneak/AutistMask/issues/195)).
- 2026-08-11: Wallet deletion repairs its own state — `hasWallet` follows the
remaining wallets, the selection only moves when it was deleted, and the
active-address change is broadcast to connected sites
([#156](https://git.eeqj.de/sneak/AutistMask/issues/156)).
- 2026-08-11: One row per on-chain value movement in transaction history: the
merge moved into the pure `mergeTransactions` and the zero-ETH native side of
a plain ERC-20 transfer absorbed into its token row
([#177](https://git.eeqj.de/sneak/AutistMask/issues/177)).
- 2026-08-11: `TODO.md` Workflow rewritten to the branch-and-PR-per-issue model
on `next`, with Status and Next Step refreshed
([#191](https://git.eeqj.de/sneak/AutistMask/issues/191)).
- 2026-08-09: `DEBUG` became a build-time constant defaulting to off, injected
as the `__BUILD_DEBUG__` esbuild define and turned on with
`AUTISTMASK_DEBUG=1`, so a plain `make build` no longer hands every newly
created wallet the publicly committed test recovery phrase
([#149](https://git.eeqj.de/sneak/AutistMask/issues/149)).
- 2026-08-09: dApp approval signing moved into the popup — the password no
longer crosses the extension messaging boundary; the background broadcasts and
resolves approvals only, and verifies the signed artifact against the approval
it holds (#157).
- 2026-08-09: Post-build assertion that every emitted bundle containing
`constants.js` has `DEBUG` compiled off, via `script/verify-build` on the
`make build` path (#170).
- 2026-08-09: Containerized Chrome end-to-end harness (`make test-e2e` /
`script/test-e2e`) driving the real popup with all network intercepted, plus
the two used-but-not-imported crashes it caught: AddToken unreachable (#150)
and TransactionDetail broken for every ERC-20 transfer (#151). Harness
demonstrated failing before the fixes and passing after (#181). Interception
covers the MV3 background service worker, not just the popup page, and a
launch-time canary aborts the suite if worker traffic starts escaping.
- 2026-08-09: Reviewed the repo end to end and filed the 1.0.0 backlog
(#149-#168).
- 2026-08-09: Test coverage for the address-poisoning defense in
`src/shared/transactions.js` (#160)
- 2026-07-26: About well in settings with build info, repo link and the version
click easter egg (#145); proper view navigation stack (#146).
- 2026-07-07 Adopted scripts-to-rule-them-all: `script/` entrypoints, Makefile
shims, README Entrypoints section (#148)
- 2026-03-01: USD display suppressed on testnets (#142); estimated USD for ETH
in approve-tx view (#141).
- Sepolia testnet support (#137); etherscan links go to token-specific URLs
(#136).
- Transaction detail improvements: Type field and on-chain details (#130),
txid-first reordering (#133), swap display corrections (#128), expanded
confirm-tx warnings (#118).
- Dark mode theme setting (Light/Dark/System) with contrast fixes (#126);
timestamps include timezone offset (#120); layout shift audit, reserved space
for error messages (#124).
- Copy-flash visual feedback with timing tune (#113, #121); cross-wallet-type
duplicate detection (#115).
- 2026-02-27: v0.1.0 tagged.
- 2026-02-24: Initial scaffolding: popup UI, BIP-39 wallet creation via
ethers.js, wallet persistence, real ETH balances over RPC, ENS forward and
reverse resolution.
# Future Steps
Only work that has no issue of its own belongs here; everything else is on the
tracker.
- Pre-1.0 security review of the extension (key handling, DEBUG mode policy, RPC
input validation) before any 1.0rc tag. Individual filed issues are parts of
it, but the review is broader than any of them.
- Decide whether docker-in-docker makes `make test-e2e` and
`make test-e2e-firefox` runnable in the Gitea workflow. Extending the Chrome
suite itself is tracked as
[#183](https://git.eeqj.de/sneak/AutistMask/issues/183).
- Cut 1.0.0 once the milestone is empty, then continue tagging as milestones
land.
