# Repository Guidelines

## Project Structure & Module Organization

This is a Firefox WebExtension (Manifest V2) with npm-based development tooling.

- `manifest.json` defines the extension metadata, the ChatGPT search provider,
  the background script, the options panel, and the keyboard command.
- `lib/` holds pure logic with no browser dependencies: `defaults.js`,
  `build-url.js`, and `settings.js`. This is the unit-tested core.
- `background/background.js` is an ES-module background script that registers
  the context menu and the keyboard command.
- `options/` is the options panel rendered inline in `about:addons`.
- `test/` holds `node:test` unit tests. Excluded from the packaged ZIP.
- `icons/` contains size-specific PNG artwork named `powered-by-openai-icon-<size>x<size>.png`.
- `web-ext-config.mjs` controls linting, local execution, and ZIP packaging.
- `docs/superpowers/` holds specs and plans. Excluded from the packaged ZIP.
- `.gitea/workflows/firefox-extension.yml` validates pull requests and protected branches.
- `README.md`, `CHANGELOG.md`, and `LICENSE.txt` cover usage, releases, and licensing.

## Browser Scope

Firefox Desktop is the only current implementation and release target. Do not add Chrome, Brave, Chromium, or other browser packaging—or modify the sibling Chrome repository—unless a task explicitly requests it. Future ports remain desirable, so prefer standard WebExtension APIs where they preserve Firefox behavior and isolate unavoidable Firefox-specific code.

## Build, Test, and Development Commands

- `npm ci` installs the exact dependencies from `package-lock.json`; use Node.js 22 or newer.
- `npm run dev` launches a temporary Firefox profile with automatic extension reload.
- `npm run lint` runs strict Mozilla extension validation.
- `npm run test:unit` runs the `node:test` unit tests over `test/`.
- `npm run build` creates the unsigned ZIP under `web-ext-artifacts/`.
- `npm test` runs lint, unit tests, and build together; run it before every pull request.

## Coding Style & Naming Conventions

Use two-space indentation in JSON, YAML, and JavaScript configuration. Preserve logical key grouping in `manifest.json`. Use lowercase, hyphenated filenames and include dimensions in icon names. Keep changes focused and avoid adding runtime dependencies without a concrete need.

## Testing Guidelines

Unit tests cover the pure logic in `lib/` via `node:test`; automated checks
otherwise cover manifest validation and packaging, not browser behaviour. Note
`node --test` exits 0 when it discovers no test files, so confirm a non-zero
test count rather than trusting the exit code alone.

After `npm test`, use `npm run dev` and confirm:

- `gpt <query>` opens ChatGPT, the provider stays non-default, and Firefox
  search settings can configure it.
- The Options/Preferences tab renders all five settings plus Restore defaults,
  in both light and dark themes and at a narrow window width, and values
  persist across a restart.
- The right-click **Ask ChatGPT** item appears only when text is selected.
- `Alt+Shift+G` acts on the selection, including a selection inside an iframe,
  and opens a blank chat when nothing is selected or on a restricted page such
  as `about:config`. Press the key to test this — `commands.getAll()` reports a
  shortcut as registered even when Firefox has silently overridden it.

Inspect ZIP contents whenever packaging rules or assets change; `test/` and
`docs/` must never appear, not even as empty directory entries.

Gitea Actions runs checks for every pull request and pushes to `develop` and
`main`. Only successful `main` pushes upload an unsigned build artifact; CI does
not publish to AMO.

## Commit & Pull Request Guidelines

Recent history uses short, lowercase prefixes such as `doc:` and `build:` (for example, `doc: fix git url`). Follow `<type>: <concise summary>` and keep each commit focused.

Pull requests should explain the user-visible effect, list manual Firefox checks, and link the relevant issue. Include screenshots for icons or browser-visible metadata. Explicitly call out permission, search URL, privacy, and packaging changes.

## Security & Privacy

Do not commit credentials or API keys. New permissions, telemetry, intermediary servers, or data collection require explicit justification and matching privacy documentation.

Permissions are deliberately limited to `storage`, `menus`, and `activeTab`,
which add no line to Firefox's install prompt. Do not add `tabs`,
`notifications`, `webNavigation`, or any host permission without re-reading
`docs/superpowers/specs/2026-07-29-extension-options-design.md` — each was
considered and rejected there, and Appendix B records a feature rejected on
security grounds that must not be revived without clearing the bar documented
with it.
