v3.5.4 — CI Modernization, Zero Lint Warnings, Permission Cleanup

Changes

CI Modernization

• Upgraded from Node.js 20 to 22 LTS — preempts forced migration on June 2, 2026

Code Quality

• ESLint warnings: 24 → 0 — added caughtErrorsIgnorePattern to config, fixed all unused vars across 12 files
• Zero errors, zero warnings across entire codebase

Permission Cleanup

• Removed unused activeTab permission — not referenced anywhere in source code, reduces Chrome Web Store review friction and attack surface

Full Changelog: v3.5.3...v3.5.4

v3.5.3 — Medium/Low Hardening: Caps, Cleanup, Guards, Tests

Fixes

Memory & Cleanup

• originalComments Map cap: Size check at insertion point (5000 limit, consistent with other Maps)
• history.pushState/replaceState cleanup: Original methods restored on pagehide to prevent wrapper stacking across bfcache navigations

Performance

• YouTube subtitle efficiency: Skip retry timers on pages without YouTube iframes, reduce retries from 5 to 3, guard against calling destroyed manager, clean up timers in destroy()

Robustness

• window._sb null guard: All 5 consumer modules (code-comments, sidebar-chat, text-selection, header-controls, keyboard-shortcuts) now fail gracefully with a warning if _sb is not initialized — prevents cascading errors on load-order issues

Test Coverage

• 11 new tests for postMessage handling and pendingCallbacks:
  • Nonce validation (correct/wrong/missing/different source)
  • pendingCallbacks lifecycle (_ts timestamps, stale eviction, size cap)
  • Callback dispatch and unknown ID handling
• 309 tests total, all passing

Full Changelog: v3.5.2...v3.5.3

v3.5.2 — Critical: Load Order Fix, Memory Leaks, XSS Boundary

Critical Fixes

Manifest Load Order Bug (all users affected)

constants.js was loading before selectors.js, causing EXAM_SKIP_SELECTORS and all subsequent constants to throw ReferenceError. Exam mode answer protection was completely broken — answer choices were being translated on quiz/exam pages, which could alter meaning.

pendingCallbacks Memory Leak

The pendingCallbacks Map in translator.js could grow unbounded when requests failed outside the timeout path. Added:

• Size cap (100 concurrent callbacks)
• Stale entry eviction (auto-cleanup after 2 minutes)

High-Priority Fixes

• XSS error boundary: gemini-block innerHTML assignment now wrapped in try-catch with fallback to original HTML
• Await cache/quota operations: _cleanupExpiredCache() and _checkStorageQuota() were fire-and-forget in initialize(), errors silently swallowed
• Offline queue leak: restoreOriginal() now clears _offlinePendingItems to prevent memory growth on repeated language switches

Code Quality

• ESLint warnings reduced from 27 to 10
• let → const for Maps that are never reassigned
• Unused variables prefixed with _ per convention

Full Changelog: v3.5.1...v3.5.2
