samiandClaude Sonnet 5 55932a2e11 ext: popup, options, and the panel bridge (build order step 6)
Popup and Options are separate documents from the background page and
can't reach its live VeloxTransport directly, so background/bridge.ts
relays it over one browser.runtime.connect port per document
(call/subscribe/getStatus/reconnect/pair/unpair/setOverride in;
result/event/status/pairError out). shared/panel-client.ts is the
client side both surfaces use.

Popup (src/popup/): status dot + text, active-downloads list driven by
event.task.progress/added/state/removed (repaints ride the event's own
<=4 Hz cap rather than adding a second timer), pause/resume buttons,
"Start it" wired to a reconnect request. State lives in a DOM-free
store.ts for unit testing; rendering uses createElement, not innerHTML
(web-ext lint flags the latter).

Options (src/options/): transport override select, pairing (code entry
+ pair/unpair, backed by two new WebSocketTransport methods,
pairWithCode/unpair), and the daemon's capture policy mirrored via
capture.getRules. The capture-policy form is editable only when the
active transport is native messaging (uds) -- settings.set and
rules.upsert are privileged, uds-only methods per shared/protocol
METHODS, so WebSocket can't write them no matter what the page shows;
CLAUDE.md section 2 rules out working around that locally. The bridge's
status payload adds a kind field (which transport is live) for this to
key off. Default category is the one piece of state that's genuinely
the extension's own, not the daemon's, and lives in
browser.storage.local via options/prefs.ts. Pure decisions (statusLine,
pairingAvailable, captureRulesEditable) are split into view.ts for unit
testing without a DOM.

manifest.json registers the popup action and options_ui page (and, in
the same edit, the content_scripts entry the next commit's media
detection needs -- split by file, not by manifest line). build.mjs
gains popup/options as further esbuild entry points, plus copying their
static HTML/CSS into dist/.

Layout

src/background/transport/   Transport interface + WebSocket and native-messaging impls,
                            runtime picker. See docs/adr/0003 for why there are two.
src/shared/protocol/        GENERATED from ../contracts — never hand-edit.
tests/                      vitest; webextension-polyfill is mocked in tests/setup.ts.

Develop

npm ci
npm run typecheck        # tsc --noEmit, strict
npm test                 # vitest run
npm run lint             # web-ext lint (AMO rules) — needs manifest.json

Build against tools/mockd over the WebSocket transport; veloxd is not required.

Transport quick start

import { createTransport } from './src/background/transport/index.js';

const t = await createTransport();            // reads the Options override; default 'auto'
t.onStateChange((s) => renderDot(s));
const rules = await t.call('capture.getRules', {});

createTransport resolves with a live, self-reconnecting transport. When veloxd is not up yet it still resolves (WebSocket, status disconnected, retrying) — callers render the red dot. It rejects only when the user explicitly forced native messaging and that failed. Capture code treats every call() rejection as fail-open.
