samiandClaude Sonnet 5 c5d596d93b ext: MV3 manifest + esbuild build; drop polyfill for Firefox's browser global
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.

Owner: lane EXT. See ../docs/agents/AGENT-EXT.md and ../docs/05-extension-spec.md. Firefox MV3, TypeScript. Zero download logic.

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.
