Sentry JAVASCRIPT-REACT-C is thrown inside Jam's recorder script (js.jam.dev), whose bundled Rimless library fails a handshake reply when the message's source window is gone. No frame comes from our code, and the two events came from what looks like a crawler.

This adds one ignoreErrors pattern for that message in src/lib/observability.ts. Jam loading and the CSP are unchanged. Lint, typecheck and npm test pass locally.

Fixes JAVASCRIPT-REACT-C

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Bug Fixes
    • Improved handling of a messaging-related error. This change affects error reporting and does not alter the app’s visible behavior.

Jam's recorder script bundles the Rimless iframe RPC library, which
throws "No target specified for postMessage" when a message's source
window is gone. The stack is entirely inside js.jam.dev, so drop it.

Explanation

The title names the main change: an ignoreErrors pattern that suppresses Jam's Rimless 'No target specified for postMessage' error in Sentry. The raw summary confirms the only code change is that ignoreErrors entry in src/lib/observability.ts, so the title matches the changeset.

Full details: Docstring Coverage

Explanation

Docstring coverage is 0.00% which is insufficient. The required threshold is 80.00%. Docstring coverage is scoped to functions touched by this diff with cyclomatic complexity of at least 2. Documentation-only edits and deletions within surviving functions are included; unchanged diff context and fully deleted functions are excluded. Analyzed 1 functions across 1 files.

Resolution

Write docstrings for the functions missing them to satisfy the coverage threshold.

Anchor the Rimless ignoreErrors pattern to the full message.

The pattern at line 193 has no ^ or $ anchors. Sentry tests a RegExp ignoreErrors entry against the event message. An unrelated error that contains this text, for example one that wraps or appends the Rimless message, can also be dropped. Anchor the pattern so that it matches only the Rimless message.

The anchored form matches only when the full event message equals this text. Confirm that Jam's Rimless error has no suffix, or the anchored pattern will stop ignoring it.
