Completes the messaging controls from v4.8.14 and fixes the bug that made them
appear broken for recipients.
Fixed:
- Per-message metadata was silently dropped for recipients. NotificationIntegration
wrapped onMessage and deliverMessageToUI with 2-arg shims that called the
originals without the 3rd argument (meta); with notifications enabled, view-once,
disappearing timers and unsend all failed on the receiving side. Both wrappers
now forward all arguments. Added tests/notification-meta-forwarding.test.mjs.
- Chat would not open after SAS: composer props were threaded into the wrong
component (EnhancedConnectionSetup vs EnhancedChatInterface) -> ReferenceError
nowTick on the verified re-render. Props moved to the chat component.
Changed:
- Code blocks: lightweight dependency-free syntax highlighting via React nodes
(no innerHTML/remote scripts); code mode expands the input; copy auto-clears
the clipboard after ~30s.
- View-once: configurable visible-after-open time (5s/15s/30s/1m) via meta.onceTtl.
- Disappearing timer: duration picker (Off/30s/5m/1h) instead of click-cycling.
- Composer toolbar moved next to "Send files"; borderless buttons, brand-orange
active state; pickers open upward and are mobile-friendly.
- Sender bubble background lightened to rgba(249,115,22,0.05).
Removed:
- Panic wipe button (disconnect already wipes keys and clears session state).
Transport unchanged: per-message metadata travels inside the encrypted envelope,
whitelisted/bounded by _sanitizeMessageMeta. Full suite: 19 files, all passing.
Docs (README, CHANGELOG) updated; version bumped to 4.8.20.
New privacy-focused messaging controls in the composer:
- Code blocks: button wraps the message in a fenced block; both peers render a
monospace code window with a copy button (clipboard auto-clears after ~30s).
Window is built from sanitized text via React nodes — no new XSS surface.
- View-once: recipient sees a blurred bubble, reveals on tap, then it is wiped.
Honestly cooperative (not screenshot-proof).
- Disappearing messages: optional 30s/5m/1h timer auto-deletes on both sides
with a live countdown; incoming TTL clamped to [5s, 24h].
- Unsend (delete for everyone) via new MESSAGE_TYPES.message_delete control.
- Panic wipe: clears chat, wipes keys and disconnects (behind a confirm).
Transport:
- Per-message metadata (id / view-once / timer) travels inside the encrypted
envelope, not in the sanitized text, so content cannot spoof these controls.
- _sanitizeMessageMeta whitelists + bounds metadata on send and receive.
- AAD/replay protection, SAS gate and receive-side DOMPurify are unchanged.
Adds tests/secure-chat-features.test.mjs (full suite: 17 files, all passing).
Bumps version to 4.8.14 across package.json, package-lock.json, manifest.json,
index.html, meta.json, README, SECURITY_DISCLAIMER, header and init banner.
