This release pairs with Firelink 1.4.2. It brings the Edge-ready package together with important Torrent handoff fixes from the 2.2.1 release candidate.
New features
- Microsoft Edge Add-ons package preparation
- Ship the shared Chromium package with localized store metadata for English, Simplified Chinese, Hebrew, Persian, Ukrainian, and Russian.
- Provide localized listing descriptions, permission explanations, certification notes, privacy policy guidance, and branded store artwork, responding to Firelink #39.
- Browser-local Torrent attachments
- Send
blob:anddata:Torrent files from the browser to Firelink's Add window through the supported binary handoff.
- Send
Improvements
- Preserve final filenames, redirect details, MIME information, and browser-download ownership while automatic captures settle or recover across service-worker restarts.
- Keep browser cookies limited to the ordinary captured-download path while local Torrent attachments use their dedicated handoff data.
Fixes
- Capture direct
.torrentlinks before the browser reports the download complete. - Preserve completed Torrent captures when completion races pausing, filename settling, or background recovery.
- Prevent automatic captures from being duplicated, resumed too early, or cleaned up as the wrong browser download during these races.
Compatibility
- Use Firelink
1.4.2. Until the Edge listing is certified and published, Chromium users should continue with the manual installation.
