The header-hook manager's core call: capture when any positive signal holds
and none of the vetoes do (docs/05 §2). Vetoes are absolute and checked
first — a monitored .zip on an excluded host is not captured.
Decision table written first (tests/capture/rules.test.ts, 22 rows); every
branch here exists to satisfy one. Covers the M1 DoD set: attachment,
monitored extension, monitored MIME, size threshold, excluded host (exact +
wildcard), HTML navigation, blob:/data: origin, bypass modifier, streaming
media (HLS MIME and resourceType 'media'), a page-issued range request, plus
non-GET, redirect status, sub-threshold, and large-but-renderable.
Pure function of (candidate, rules); rules are the daemon's, mirrored via
capture.getRules, so the decision never drifts from daemon policy.

onHeadersReceived (where shouldCapture runs) doesn't carry the headers the
browser actually sent; signed-URL and referrer-gated CDNs need them. Stash
from onBeforeSendHeaders keyed by requestId, read back at capture time.
This map sees every request, so it is bounded both ways — oldest-out past a
size cap (default 2048) and a 5-minute TTL, swept on a 60 s timer and on read
— and attach() clears an entry the moment its request completes or errors.
normalizeHeaders(): Array<{name,value}> -> lower-cased map, repeats joined
with ", ". 13 tests: eviction order, redirect re-put refresh, TTL expiry,
sweep, and the onBeforeSendHeaders/onCompleted/onErrorOccurred wiring.

Firefox-only extension, so webextension-polyfill (a Chrome shim) is dead
weight and forces a bundler just to resolve one bare import. Use the native
`browser.*` global with @types/firefox-webext-browser instead.
- manifest.json: MV3, event-page background (dist/background.js), the
docs/05 §7 permission set (<all_urls> in host_permissions),
strict_min_version 128.0, data_collection_permissions none.
- scripts/build.mjs: esbuild bundle of src/background/index.ts -> dist/,
esm, target firefox128. Wired to `prepare` so `npm ci` produces the
bundle and CI's `web-ext lint` (which needs it to exist) passes with no
added CI step. dist/ stays gitignored.
- src/background/index.ts: event-page entry — brings the transport up,
holds the shared reference. Capture surfaces attach here next.
- transport/storage.ts, transport/index.ts: use the browser global.
- tests/setup.ts: stub the browser global instead of mocking a module.
web-ext lint clean (0/0/0). typecheck clean. 38 tests still green.

Spike S1 — run on the target machine through real snap confinement
(apparmor snap.firefox.firefox enforced; web-ext's direct-exec of the inner
binary bypasses it, so runs were forced through `snap run firefox`):
- manifest in ~/.mozilla/native-messaging-hosts/ -> WORKS; host launched
unconfined with real $HOME and real $XDG_RUNTIME_DIR, bound a socket in
the real /run/user/<uid>. Corroborated by the machine's 1Password host.
- ~/snap/firefox/common/.mozilla/native-messaging-hosts/ -> not read
- /usr/lib/mozilla/native-messaging-hosts/ -> not read
- flatpak path -> N/A (snap Firefox)
Decision: WebSocket stays the default; native messaging is an opportunistic
upgrade taken only when its handshake succeeds. docs/05 §4 corrected in this
commit to point the snap manifest at ~/.mozilla and mark /usr/lib as
deb/tarball-only. ADR carries a self-contained reproduction; the scratch
harness has been removed.
transport/ (build order item 1):
- types.ts VeloxTransport interface + error taxonomy
- rpc.ts JSON-RPC id correlation, per-call deadline, AbortSignal
- backoff.ts exponential backoff with jitter
- discovery.ts 52000-52016 scan ordering (last-good port first)
- websocket.ts scan -> session.hello -> auto-pair (token in
storage.local) -> reconnect; -32001 fatal, refused/
rate-limited pairing latches needsPairing (no retry storm);
a mid-handshake drop aborts hello immediately
- native.ts connectNative(); distinguishes "not installed" (fatal,
lets the picker fall through) from a crash (reconnect)
- index.ts createTransport() runtime picker + persisted Options override
Toolchain: package.json / tsconfig (strict) / vitest; webextension-polyfill
mocked. 38 tests, incl. the WS suite against a real loopback ws server.
No manifest.json yet, so CI's extension-lint guard stays a no-op.

Lays out Velox Download Manager (IDM-class download manager for Ubuntu
26.04) as a monorepo ready for parallel lane development. No implementation
code by design.
- docs/: architecture, roadmap M0-M7, IDM-parity GUI spec, engine design,
Firefox extension spec, risks/spikes, packaging
- contracts/: wire-contract skeleton (JSON Schema + fixture templates) —
the single synchronization point between lanes
- docs/agents/: one brief per lane (PROTO, CORE, DAEMON, GUI, EXT, PKG/QA)
with owned directories, build order and definition of done
- CLAUDE.md: rules of engagement — lane ownership, layering, non-negotiables
- CMake scaffolding with dev/tsan/release/ci presets
Two environment findings shape the design: Firefox here is the Mozilla snap
(native-messaging risk, so the extension carries a loopback-WebSocket
fallback), and Wayland forbids passive clipboard monitoring (so clipboard
capture is explicit-action-first).
