 # Changelog
 
+## 0.9.0 — drag and drop, canvas editors, cookie banners and popups, work in the background (2026-11-12)
+
+**Popups the agent can see and close**
+- **A popup drawn as a plain `<div>` over the page is now a popup.** Promotions, newsletter prompts and "choose your
+  store" boxes often have no dialog markup, so the agent saw the page behind them and could not find the "×". Now
+  page_inspect says "A popup covers the page", lists only what is on it, names its close control first and says how
+  to close it. When a popup has no close control, it says so and suggests Escape. A full-screen app layout is never
+  mistaken for a popup.
+- **Cookie and consent banners.** A full-page consent wall or a bar at the bottom: page_inspect lists its **Reject**,
+  **Accept** and settings buttons first and names them, in English, French, German, Spanish, Italian, Dutch and
+  Portuguese. **Accept asks you first, in every language** (before, only the English word did), because accepting
+  tracking is your choice. Reject goes ahead. A banner inside another site's frame (some consent tools) cannot be
+  read yet, and the snapshot says frames were skipped.
+
+**Rich editors: select, format, link**
+- **New `text_select`.** Your agent selects a phrase in an editor the way you do, by dragging the mouse over it, so the
+  editor shows its own toolbar; Ctrl+B, Ctrl+I, Ctrl+K or the toolbar's Link button then act on it, and typing
+  replaces it. It works in text fields too, and picks the 2nd or 3rd match when a phrase repeats.
+- **The agent knows the formatting where it types.** After Ctrl+B, Ctrl+I or Ctrl+U, after selecting, and after typing
+  into an editor, the result says what is on (bold, italic, underline, link), so bold no longer carries into the next
+  sentence unnoticed.
+
+**Workflows can drag, select and hover**
+- A saved or recorded workflow may now include `element_drag`, `text_select` and `element_hover` steps, by name (never
+  refs). A recorded drag keeps both ends by role and name; text typed with `browser_press_key text` is stored as a
+  parameter, never in the file. A drag is retried only when it provably did not run, like a click.
+- **Style fixes no longer flash.** A saved site fix is inserted as soon as the page starts loading, before its first
+  paint, instead of after the whole page (images included) had loaded.
+
+**Background by default, in front when you ask**
+- **The agent works in a background tab**, so you can keep using Chrome. When you want to watch, ask it to show you:
+  `browser_switch_tab` with no tab id brings its tab to the front and focuses that window.
+- **Google Docs and whiteboards keep up in a background tab.** Chrome stops drawing hidden tabs, and Docs crawled there
+  (a click took 43 s). While the agent works in a hidden canvas editor, BrowserZap keeps the tab drawing with a tiny,
+  discarded screencast (64 px frames, never stored), stopped 10 s after its last action.
+- **Ad-heavy pages no longer hold every action for 5 s.** The wait for the page's network to go quiet ignores ad
+  networks and embedded frames (video players, ad slots), like it already ignored analytics: they load on their own
+  time and are not the page working.
+- **Drops on sortable lists are quicker**: fewer drag-over steps once the page has started a browser drag, and each
+  drag result says where its time went (`evidence.timing`).
+
+**Drag, and clicking a point**
+- **New `element_drag`.** Your agent can drag like a person: move a card to another column or list slot, pull a slider,
+  drop a file card on a drop zone, or draw a stroke on a whiteboard along a path of points. Works with pages that use
+  the browser's own drag and drop and with pages that follow the mouse. Dropping onto something that deletes, pays or
+  sends asks you first.
+- **You see the drag happen.** The on-screen arrow rides along the drag path and shows "drop" where it lets go; a key
+  pressed on a whole canvas no longer sends the arrow to the canvas's left edge, it stays where the last action was.
+- **Draggable items are listed** by page_inspect (`draggable`, or a move/grab cursor: sortable lists, kanban cards),
+  so an agent can drag them by ref.
+- **A drop asks only when its target is an action** (a button, a link or a short-labelled zone like "Delete item"); a
+  card whose text holds a risky word ("Beta invite list") is just a place in a list.
+- **The side panel says what was dragged where** ("Dragged “Design review” onto “Done”"), and names text selections,
+  hovers and typed text.
+- **`element_click` can click a point inside an element** (`offset`): a spot on a canvas, a map or a slider track.
+- **Whiteboards built on Excalidraw are recognised** as canvas editors: page_inspect lists the board with its size, so
+  the agent knows where it can draw.
+
+**Google Docs and other canvas editors**
+- **Type a whole text in one call.** `browser_press_key` takes `text` instead of `key`: the text is typed at the caret
+  through Chrome, a line break is Enter. Built for Google Docs, Sheets and Slides, which draw their page on a canvas and
+  have no field to target. A line break that would submit a form is refused. The text is never logged.
+- **The page is something to click.** page_inspect lists the document page (or sheet grid, slide, canvas) so the agent
+  can put the caret back, and says to format with shortcuts (Ctrl+B, Ctrl+Alt+1 for a heading).
+- **Quicker in canvas editors, and paced to the machine.** A key, click or drag in Docs or a whiteboard no longer waits
+  1.5 s for a page change it can never see: it watches 0.3 s on a fast page and longer when the page is slow to answer
+  (up to the usual 1.5 s). Drag moves follow Chrome's own pace, so a slow laptop slows the drag instead of breaking it.
+- **Fast typing.** In a canvas editor each line goes in at once (102 characters took 13 s before).
+- **Opening a Doc no longer times out** while Docs is still streaming the page: once the editor is on screen, the page counts as usable.
+- **Honest results.** BrowserZap cannot read text drawn on a canvas, so results say "check with screenshot_capture"
+  instead of claiming the text is there.
+- **No more timeouts after the first key.** The popup check walked the whole page up to 25 times a second in a
+  full-screen app; it now reuses its answer for a moment. And in a canvas editor keys and clicks no longer wait for the
+  network to go quiet (Docs saves as you type, so it never does): each key took 5 s or more, now well under a second.
+
+**Small fixes**
+- **The first call after a reload works** (backlog E-12). Chrome sometimes cancels a brand-new debugger session within
+  a second; BrowserZap took that for you pressing Stop. A cancel that quick is ignored, a dropped debugger re-attaches
+  once, and a session that comes straight back never has its tabs cleaned up by the old one.
+- **No false "Verification page" on working sites** (E-7). Medium and other sites load an invisible reCAPTCHA in the
+  background; only a CAPTCHA you can see and use now counts.
+- **Removing a chip in a form no longer asks** (E-8). The small "×" on a picked tag or category ("Remove Tool") only
+  edits the form; the form's Submit still asks. "Delete account" and other text buttons still ask.
+- **Scrolling to the bottom of a page that loads more** (E-10) no longer says `atEnd`: BrowserZap waits a moment, and
+  if the page grew, the result says to scroll again.
+- **Cloudflare's "Just a moment..." page is a verification page** (E-13), not "HTTP 403, missing": the agent is told to
+  hand it to you with task_pause.
+- **Code editors (CodeMirror, Monaco) no longer report "did not keep the text"** (E-14) when the text is there: they
+  close brackets and split lines as you type, so the check reads all lines and ignores added brackets.
+- **A consent popup without a close button** now says to use its Reject/Accept choices instead of Escape (E-18).
+- **Updating the companion while BrowserZap runs no longer breaks new tools.** The bridge left running from the old
+  version is replaced when it is older than the new companion, and if it is asked for an action it does not know it
+  says so at once instead of letting the call time out.
+- **page_inspect counts add up**: controls and clickable regions are each reported against their own total (it could
+  say "15 of 12").
+- **The agent's tab group stands out on any theme.** Groups no longer take yellow or orange, which disappeared against
+  warm Chrome themes; the colours rotate through blue, purple, green, red, cyan and pink.
+- **npm installs on macOS and Linux** (as in 0.8.6): no `"os": ["win32"]` in `package.json`.
+
+**Style fixes: try CSS without editing the code**
+- **New `style_apply`, `style_list` and `style_remove`.** Your agent writes CSS for one tab, or for a whole site, and
+  sees it applied at once. A site fix is applied again on every page load of that site until it is removed.
+- **Settings → Style fixes** shows each site's CSS in a read-only code view, with an on/off toggle, **Copy CSS** (to
+  hand to whoever changes the code) and **Remove**. The side panel says how many fixes apply to the tab you are
+  looking at.
+- **Works like a rule you add in DevTools.** A fix is its own style sheet after all of the page's, so it wins a tie and
+  otherwise follows the normal cascade: inheritance, the page's inline styles and `!important` behave as you expect, and
+  nothing is added to your CSS. It works on pages with a strict Content-Security-Policy, with no debugger bar.
+- **You see whether it worked.** `style_apply` says, per rule, if it matched anything and which properties did not
+  change, and why that happens (a more specific page rule, the page's `!important`, or an inline style).
+- **Guardrails.** CSS only, never JavaScript. 64 KB per site. A selector aimed at BrowserZap's own overlays is refused,
+  CSS that would hide the whole page is refused, and the Stop pill, approval cards and the hand-off prompt stay visible
+  whatever a page's styles say.
+- **No new permission.** Nothing leaves your computer.
+- **Settings follow Save.** The Style fixes on/off switch and Remove wait for **Save** like every other setting.
+
+**Settings apply on Save**
+- **One Save for every setting.** Permission categories, removing a site allowance, Reset to defaults, chat-history
+  retention, the profile name, style fixes, the bridge port and a new pairing token are now a draft until you press
+  **Save**. **Discard** puts back what is stored, so a mis-click no longer changes a safety setting.
+- **The Save bar is always on screen**, saying “All changes saved” or “You have unsaved changes”; Save and Discard turn
+  on when something changes. Advanced no longer has Save buttons of its own (Reconnect stays: it is an action).
+- **Changes made elsewhere are not lost.** “Always allow on this site” from an approval card (or another settings tab)
+  updates the saved state while the page is open, without discarding your draft.
+- **A warning before leaving.** Closing or reloading the page with unsaved changes asks first, and the section menu
+  marks the sections that have unsaved changes with a dot.
+
+**Settings page**
+- More consistent spacing and hierarchy, clearer empty states for site allowances, and visible keyboard focus.
+- **The section menu follows the page**: it marks the section you are reading, the last one at the end of the page
+  (short sections never reach the top), and the one you picked.
+- The unsaved-changes bar fades and rises into place, and stays still when your system asks for reduced motion.
+
+**Dark mode**
+- Native dropdown lists (the chat-history selector) follow the page's light or dark appearance on both the Settings
+  page and the side panel.
+**Check a page at phone and tablet sizes**
+- **`page_viewport`.** Ask your agent to see the tab as a phone, a tablet or a desktop: a built-in device (iPhone SE,
+  iPhone 15, iPhone 15 Pro Max, Pixel 8, Galaxy S23, iPad Mini, iPad Air, Desktop 1280, Desktop 1440, Desktop 1920) or
+  any custom `width` × `height`, with the pixel ratio, touch input and mobile user agent the device would have. Chrome's
+  own emulation, through the debugger BrowserZap already holds.
+- **Zoom.** `zoom` 0.5–3 sets the browser zoom for that tab only, so 125 % or 150 % can be checked without changing
+  anything else.
+- **A sweep in one call.** `sweep` screenshots the page at several devices and returns the image paths, so your agent
+  can compare them without ten separate calls.
+- **What breaks is measured, not guessed.** Every result reads back horizontal overflow, the elements wider than the
+  viewport (with refs), text smaller than 12 px and tap targets under 24 px — counted in the page, never returning its
+  text. Overflow is measured against the width the page lays out to, so a phone that zooms an overflowing page out to
+  fit still reports it.
+- **Tap targets follow WCAG 2.5.8.** Hidden 1 px controls (skip links, screen-reader radios), links inside a sentence
+  and small targets with enough space around them are not counted.
+- **Zoom stays on.** Chrome resets a per-tab zoom when the page navigates; BrowserZap sets it again.
+- **Never left in a phone-sized tab.** The emulation ends when the agent's session ends, when you press Stop or Take
+  over, when the panel hands the tab back, and on `reset`. The side panel shows a small **Viewing as <device> · Reset**
+  line while it is on.
+- **No new permissions.**
+
+**Look closer, without running code**
+- **`page_measure`.** One element's box, the layout-relevant computed styles (display, position, size, margin, padding,
+  font size, colours, z-index, overflow), why it is invisible when it is, and what covers it.
+- **`page_check`.** Built-in audits — overflow, contrast (WCAG AA), tap targets under 24 px, images without alt text,
+  console errors — returning counts and refs, never page text or values.
+- **Agents do not run scripts.** There is no `execute_js` and no script tool, by decision: these shipped, read-mostly
+  checks are the way to test a page in the browser (docs/releases/0.9-backlog.md §SC).
+
