What and why

Predict and Probe in app did nothing when the URL box was empty, and a Predict result stayed on screen after the URL changed without saying which URL it was for. They now show "Type a URL to predict/probe, for example /users/42.", label the result "Result for :", and clear it when the URL is edited. Answers that arrive after an edit are ignored.

The Current and Navigations views stay mounted when the page picker switches pages. So "Aborted navigation #4." or "Replay of #7: succeeded", the URL filter and Only problems carried over from page A to page B, and a replay that finished after the switch wrote its result onto page B. These now reset when the pageId changes, using the same linkedSignal pattern as Routes, and late answers for the previous page are ignored (Replay, Copy repro, Record each guard and resolver, Abort).

How it was verified

  • 7 new tests in app/src/__tests__/router-panels.test.ts; all fail without the change
  • pnpm test:panel (249 passed)
  • pnpm typecheck
  • pnpm format:check
  • pnpm extension:build (extension/ui committed)
  • axe and overflow check on Routes, Current and Navigations against the dev SSR demo, dark and light, 1280px and 360px: 0 violations, no overflow, no page errors
  • pnpm commit:check

Screenshots

None attached.

Notes for reviewers

  • No RPC names or data shapes changed. The router docs page does not describe Predict or Probe output, so it is unchanged.
  • Two replays on the same page can still finish out of order; that is outside this change.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Bug Fixes
    • Prevented outdated responses from changing route controls, messages, predictions, or replay results after the URL or selected page changes.
    • Cleared page-specific messages and filters when switching pages.
    • Empty Predict or Probe submissions now prompt for a URL and focus the input.
    • Prediction results now show the URL they were tested against.

Predict and Probe in app did nothing with an empty URL box, and a
Predict result stayed on screen after the URL changed without saying
which URL it was for. They now ask for a URL, label the result with
its URL, and clear it (and drop answers still on their way) when the
URL is edited.

The Current and Navigations views stay mounted when the page picker
switches pages, so an Abort or Replay message, the filter and Only
problems carried over to the next page, and a late replay answer
landed on it. They now start over when the pageId changes and drop
answers for the page the user left, as Routes already does.

Walkthrough

RouteTree now provides feedback for blank URL submissions, labels prediction results with their tested URL, and ignores stale prediction and probe responses. RouteTimeline and RouteCurrent reset page-specific messages or controls and ignore responses for pages that are no longer selected.

Changes

Router panel behavior

Layer / File(s) Summary
RouteTree URL testing
app/src/pages/route-tree.ts, app/src/__tests__/router-panels.test.ts, extension/ui/assets/browser-agent-rpc-BXhoSh1z-_1_CuBo2.js, extension/ui/index.html
RouteTree prompts and focuses the URL input for blank Predict or Probe submissions. Prediction results include the tested URL. URL edits invalidate pending results, and probe responses are ignored when superseded or when the selected page changes. Tests cover these behaviors. Extension UI asset references now use index-BtK8NlqR.js.
RouteTimeline page state and requests
app/src/pages/route-timeline.ts, app/src/__tests__/router-panels.test.ts
RouteTimeline resets filters and messages when the selected page changes. Instrumentation, replay, and copy actions use the captured page ID and do not apply results after a page switch. Tests cover state reset and stale replay responses.
RouteCurrent abort state
app/src/pages/route-current.ts, app/src/__tests__/router-panels.test.ts
RouteCurrent clears its message when the selected page changes and ignores Abort responses received after a page switch. Tests cover both behaviors.

Priority: ⬇️ Low

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~25 minutes

Change: Bug fix





Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to ed774

A delayed response can make the Navigations checkbox show the wrong selection after a page switch. This is a bounded UI issue that should be fixed or explicitly accepted before merging.

Security Architecture Review

Security architecture risk: 🔵 Low · up to ed774

The changes improve separation of page-specific feedback without changing router-action permissions or request targets. A remaining concurrency issue can temporarily overwrite the current page’s recording checkbox when an earlier page’s response arrives during a newer toggle.

Retained concerns

  • Low · reliability · inferred: A late successful recording-toggle response from page A can write the reused checkbox while page B has a newer toggle pending. The reset uses B’s last reported instrumentation state, which can lag B’s requested state; B’s success handler updates only the message. The PR extends this cross-page DOM write from error outcomes to successful outcomes. This can temporarily misrepresent the recording control, although it does not retarget the action and subsequent authoritative reporting can restore consistency.
Security review details

Security Blast Radius

  • inferred — The identified regression affects the visible recording control shared across selected pages. The late response does not issue another action, alter page B’s router, or transfer page A’s result payload into page B’s authoritative instrumentation state.

Trust Boundaries and Controls

  • observed — User-entered Probe URLs and selected-page actions continue through the existing dispatcher and page overlay. The dispatcher retains its router-write capability gate; the overlay retains target-page matching and action validation; Probe execution retains its same-origin relative-URL restriction. The inspected PR does not weaken these controls.

Resilience and Maintainability Implications

  • inferred — Authoritative instrumentation changes schedule a state report after 50 milliseconds, and the parent subscribes to router-state updates. Successful delivery can repair the checkbox mismatch, limiting its duration. The inspected recording tests cover timeout and offline recovery but not overlapping toggles across a page switch.

Do not let page A’s response change page B’s checkbox.

If page B is selected and its checkbox is toggled while page A’s instrumentation request is pending, page A’s late response can assign checkbox.checked from page B’s current instrumented state. The page B request does not restore the checkbox on success.

Track the latest instrumentation toggle and restore the checkbox only if no newer toggle has occurred.

When the user toggled guard recording on one page, switched pages and
toggled again, the first answer arrived late and reset the checkbox to
the new page's stored state, undoing the newer toggle. Each toggle now
takes a sequence number and only the latest answer touches the box.
