feat(ui): support host transport and strict browser CSP - #299
Conversation
Resolve the UI directory before extension installation and publish the same path through DaemonState. Remote extensions can now inspect the exact static root used by the local router during install and startup. Co-Authored-By: Nova (GPT-6) <noreply@openai.com>
Discover the versioned host bridge at runtime and install streaming HTTP and WebSocket transports alongside native discovery. Remote URL resolution is confined to the selected daemon's /api/v1 namespace, including encoded path traversal checks, while the bridge carries abortable request streams. Co-Authored-By: Nova (GPT-6) <noreply@openai.com>
Retire request cancellation watchers at EOF and abort pending exchanges on drop. Split browser chunks to each consumer's requested capacity. Socket drops clear JavaScript callbacks before closing. Startup rejects incomplete or malformed bridge contracts before installing transports. Co-Authored-By: Nova (GPT-6) <noreply@openai.com>
📝 WalkthroughWalkthroughChangesThe pull request adds a vendored Tachys renderer and integrates it with the UI. It adds remote browser transport support, exposes the daemon UI directory to extensions, replaces selected raw SVG paths with typed rendering, and adds a CI raw HTML sink check.

Let extension crates detect the browser Remote bridge before app transport initialization, preventing accidental same-origin requests during bootstrap. Pin the current reviewed raw HTML sinks so new injection surfaces fail CI. Co-Authored-By: Nova (GPT-5.6 Sol) <noreply@openai.com>
Render shapes through typed SVG nodes. Load vendor marks as rebased CSS mask assets so tinting works without injected SVG markup. Reject every future inner_html attribute in the UI security gate. Co-Authored-By: Nova (GPT-5.6 Sol) <noreply@openai.com>
Vendor tachys 0.2.18 with a narrow hc-static policy for compiler-generated DOM templates. Validate owned icon SVG against an inert structural grammar before conversion and leave general raw HTML assignments browser-blocked. Create preview workers through the private policy. Only registered blob URLs from embedded static source can become TrustedScriptURL values. Co-Authored-By: Nova (GPT-5.6 Sol) <noreply@openai.com>
Reject escaped paint URLs and limit owned SVG conversion to the SVG renderer. An embedding host can provide the sole static DOM policy so verified service workers and compiler templates share one named policy. Restore all other vendored source bytes to the published tachys package. Keep upstream formatting intact so future patch audits stay narrow.

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟠 Major | ⚡ Quick win
Preserve the order of synchronous chunks.
chunks.into_iter().rev() reverses every synchronous HTML fragment. A nested out-of-order view can therefore render later content before earlier content.
Iterate chunks forward. Collect deferred chunks separately. Push only the deferred chunks to this.chunks in reverse order.
Proposed correction
- let chunks_iter = chunks.into_iter().rev();
-
let (before, replaced) =
this.sync_buf.split_at(start);

}Apply the same forward iteration at Line 438. Queue its non-Sync chunks afterward in reverse order.

Malformed JavaScript response headers now return transport errors instead of throwing through WASM. Require arrays of exact string pairs before reading their values. Match forbidden sink identifiers regardless of comments around assignments, and propagate search failures so a broken gate cannot report success. Firefox bridge tests cover malformed headers and the valid streamed path. Co-Authored-By: Nova (GPT-6) <noreply@openai.com>
What this changes
The engine UI can run through a host-provided browser transport. A versioned JavaScript bridge carries streamed HTTP and WebSocket traffic, supplies a daemon-specific mount path, and reports startup readiness or failure. The daemon exposes its resolved UI directory to extensions before they start.
The UI also runs under a strict Trusted Types policy. Typed SVG nodes and CSS masks replace every application raw HTML sink. A small renderer patch in vendored tachys 0.2.18 admits compiler templates and validated inert icon SVG, while ordinary dynamic HTML remains blocked. Preview workers use registered static Blob URLs. An embedding host can own the single
hc-staticpolicy through a frozen provider, allowing its verified service worker to share that policy.Why
A remotely hosted engine UI needs its own transport and URL base while retaining the existing application. The bridge is a generic public seam: the hosting application supplies authentication and transport, and the engine has no dependency on proprietary code.
Tachys currently assigns its static templates through raw HTML setters. The vendored patch confines Trusted Types conversion to those template callsites. Packaged upstream sources remain byte-identical outside the DOM renderer; the patch includes license and revision provenance.

Headless Firefox tests cover streamed uploads and chunk splitting, cancellation, socket callback cleanup, incompatible contracts, and malformed JavaScript header arrays. The sink gate rejects ordinary assignments, nested-comment and line-comment variants, and method-based DOM sinks.
Chromium boots the host shell under the exact strict CSP. Adversarial tests reject dynamic HTML, unsafe SVG paint values, and unregistered worker URLs. A separate test of the embedding provider proves static template and preview-worker creation, service-worker scope restricted to
/remote/, and rejection of external aliases and duplicate policies. The complete Remote transport integration remains a separate validation gate.Summary by CodeRabbit
