@github-actions github-actions released this 04 Jul 19:39

Breaking

  • Require the Firelink 1.0 desktop app and its local protocol v3 for automatic download capture.
  • Older desktop builds are rejected before the extension can cancel an automatic browser download.

New

  • Add stronger desktop-server identity checks before trusting localhost responses.
  • Add dynamic port discovery across Firelink's 127.0.0.1:6412-6422 listener range.
  • Add safer explicit launch behavior through firelink://launch when the app is closed.
  • Add clearer offline, invalid-token, and update-required behavior for browser handoff failures.

Improved

  • Route automatic captures through Firelink's Add window while preserving the browser download unless Firelink confirms acceptance.
  • Keep manual context-menu downloads free of browser cookies by default.
  • Forward browser cookies only for automatic single-download captures that need the browser session.
  • Avoid sharing one site's cookies across multi-link batches.
  • Keep the extension package self-contained for Mozilla review by removing remote font loading.
  • Update Firefox compatibility metadata and data-collection declarations for the current add-on store requirements.

Fixed

  • Fix event-page startup races so capture settings are respected after the background worker wakes up.
  • Fix unsupported Firefox notification-button usage that could prevent capture listeners from registering.
  • Fix protocol fallback paths that could open unnecessary tabs or lose the original browser download.
  • Fix host permissions and local API port metadata so the extension matches the Firelink 1.0 desktop listener.
