ApprovabilityVerdict: Not approved Macroscope's review found this PR not approvable — This PR adds a substantial preview snapshot/text-capture capability spanning desktop runtime, MCP server behavior, contracts, and browser-memory lifecycle handling. Human review is also required because it introduces a static-analysis suppression and retains an unresolved high-severity automation-selector concern. You can add or adjust custom eligibility rules.

Suggested reviewers: Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to When a snapshot requests saved page text and the browser host is unavailable or times out, the agent gets a generic "could not save text" message instead of actionable guidance.

Security Architecture ReviewSecurity architecture risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to The new text export preserves existing access checks and handles ordinary failures carefully. However, exported text has no overall storage budget and does not expire under default settings. Large or repeated exports can consume persistent storage, and isolation of saved files between users has not been established. Retained concerns

31-33: 📐 Maintainability & Code Quality | 🔵 Trivial | ⚡ Quick winMake the text export a service method instead of a free function called from the MCP handler.
savePreviewTextdoes filesystem work, browser dispatch, and rollback. It is a free function that reads services directly. It is not a method on aContext.Service. The MCP transport handler inapps/server/src/mcp/McpHttpServer.ts(lines 511-521) now runs two steps itself: it exports the text, then takes the snapshot on the pinnedtabId. The repository guidelines put both multi-step dispatch and filesystem work in a service. Because of this, the CLI, scheduled tasks, and other transports cannot reach the export-then-snapshot capability unless they copy the handler's logic.Move this logic into a preview-domain service and give it the standard module shape: errors, the
Context.Servicetag, a privatemake, andlayer. The service method should run the export and the pinned snapshot together. After the change, the handler only decodes the request, calls that one method, and maps errors. Consider structured attributes onPreviewTextExportError(for exampletextPathortabId) at the same time. Today it gets plain strings throughcause(lines 47 and 121).As per coding guidelines: "A server capability is a method on a service in its domain folder" and "A transport handler does three things: decode the request, call one service method, and map the service's typed errors… Filesystem, Git, or process work, folder naming, multi-step dispatch, retries, and rollback belong in the service."

515-627: 📐 Maintainability & Code Quality | 🔵 Trivial | 🏗️ Heavy liftMove the export, snapshot, and rollback steps out of the MCP handler and into a service method.
The
preview_snapshothandler does several steps itself. It exports text, routes the snapshot to the exportedtabId, and saves the PNG. It also rolls back the text artifact on failure throughEffect.onExit→fileSystem.remove.savePreviewTextis a free function inmcp/, not a method on a preview service. Other entry points (WebSocket, CLI, scheduled tasks) cannot reuse the "snapshot with saved text" capability or its cleanup guarantee. Testing that guarantee needs the full MCP server stack. Move the save-text, snapshot, and rollback steps into a method on the service that owns preview automation. The handler then decodes the payload, calls that one method, and maps the typed errors.As per coding guidelines: "A transport handler does three things: decode the request, call one service method, and map the service's typed errors to the transport's error. Nothing else.

Fixed the server-service finding in 03dfef2. All 248 focused tests passed. New cases cover delivery failure/cancellation and calls with omitted arguments. Typecheck, lint and the scoped unused-export check passed. The docstring warning is advisory. No docstrings were added, per the workspace instruction. Loaded-text limits and use are covered in the user guide. |

Reviewed the retained storage advisory at af4cb63. Full-text export is an explicit, authorized saveText request; pages cannot trigger it by themselves. A total character cap would conflict with the requested feature. Files use the existing browser artifact directory, so storageCleanup.browserArtifactsAfterDays applies when enabled; defaults retain saved files. Failed or cancelled exports remove their owned text file. Successful large or repeated saves still need disk space, now stated in the PR limits. An aggregate artifact quota would require a separate product decision; this PR does not add one. |

All build/test checks, including Linux, Windows and macOS snapshot tests, passed on af4cb63. Human review is still required; this is not a claim of maintainer approval or a scope exemption. Two details in the approvability summary need clarification: the SVG selector concern did not reproduce through the actual preview_click path (proof: #15643 (comment)), and the PR includes one narrowly scoped Effect diagnostic directive for the native |

Tested af4cb63 against base 4ee6bfd on Windows.
No reproducible in-scope defect found.
- All 280 focused tests passed across the 8 snapshot-related test files.
- Changed-file formatting and lint passed using the repository's Vite+ 1.0.0.
- Desktop, server, and contracts typechecks passed.
- 8 native Windows Electron DOM checks passed, including document/nested scrolling, duplicate selectors, clipping, long text, visible-control priority, and empty pages. This fixture used the available Electron 44.1.0, not the PR's 44.4.2.
- 7 supplemental checks passed in the Mac-hosted Browser panel on Electron 44.4.2.
Windows end-to-end acceptance remains incomplete. Dependency installation failed on the unchanged uniwind patch; the full desktop launch consequently stopped at missing cross-env. The Windows computer-use bridge was also unavailable. A standalone capturePage experiment hit UnknownVizError, so I am not claiming Windows screenshot or actual-app saveText acceptance. The passing service tests cover export, Unicode boundaries, navigation and cancellation cleanup.
This is a validation comment, not an unqualified approval.

Windows follow-up at c2eaa2c: the desktop screenshot button and agent-facing preview snapshot tool both work in the real Windows app. No blocking findings.
This closes the live-app validation gaps in my previous review. Frozen installation and desktop startup succeeded in an isolated checkout and state directory, the computer-use bridge worked, and the prior standalone UnknownVizError did not recur in the actual app. The old uniwind patch is absent from the current main-based dependency graph; this PR does not change the current dependencies.
Observed in the Windows desktop app:
- The screenshot button saved the top and scrolled viewport. The default agent snapshot returned its image in chat and saved the same scrolled PNG, byte-for-byte identical to the UI capture.
- Document scroll stayed at 1,133 px and nested scroll at 264 px. Snapshot controls matched the visible nested rows.
- Opt-in text capture returned 46,021 UTF-16 code units across 12 contiguous, Unicode-safe reads. The reconstructed text hash matched live
body.innerText; offscreen text was present and hidden text absent. - Release, replacement, and navigation invalidated old captures. Compact responses and combined PNG save/text capture also worked.
335 focused tests passed across 10 files. Changed-file format/lint and scoped desktop, server, contracts, and shared typechecks passed. I reviewed the follow-up text-capture delta separately from main merges.
Limits: five-minute idle expiry, cancellation, concurrent ownership, failure injection, and broader clipping cases have focused-test coverage rather than this live acceptance pass. No remote/relay/mobile/macOS or packaged-installer acceptance claim.

Note Written by Thanks for this. I'm closing it as part of PR triage. Right now we're only taking focused bug fixes from outside contributors (see Read this first), and this PR is not one. From the review: Adds paginated full-text capture and a broad desktop collector rewrite; main now performs snapshots in serverbrowserpage, leaving the scroll fix in obsolete code. It has also had no activity for 10 days. If this is still important to you, message me on Twitter at @maria_rcks and I'll take another look. |
Fixes lost browser context after scrolling. Adds opt-in reads of all loaded main-page text from memory, in small parts, without text files.
Verified: 335 focused tests, 67 browser checks, typecheck and lint passed. Snapshot CI passed on Linux, Windows and macOS; all 8 required checks passed.
Limits: unloaded text needs loading; tool history can store reads. Native OS capture is unchanged. Maintainer approval is pending.
