-# Changelog
-
-All notable changes to KeyFinder are documented here. Format follows [Keep a Changelog](https://keepachangelog.com/en/1.1.0/). Versioning follows [SemVer](https://semver.org/spec/v2.0.0.html).
-
-## [2.1.1] - 2026-05-14
-
-### Added
-- `SECURITY.md` with threat model, disclosure policy, and known limitations of the MAIN <-> ISOLATED nonce bridge
-- `.github/dependabot.yml` for weekly GitHub Actions version bumps
-- `CHANGELOG.md`
-
-### Changed
-- CSV export sanitiser now also prefixes cells starting with LF (`\n`), not just `=`, `+`, `-`, `@`, tab, CR
-- Popup and results page version label is now read from the manifest at runtime instead of being hardcoded
-
-### Fixed
-- Window-global scan in `js/interceptor.js` now runs at `document_start`, `DOMContentLoaded`, and `load`, with per-name dedupe. The previous implementation only scanned at `document_start` when page globals had not yet been assigned, making the entire pass dead code on most real pages
-
-## [2.1.0] - 2026-04-14
-
-### Added
-- Per-session nonce validation between MAIN-world interceptor and ISOLATED content script to prevent forged finding injection
-- CSV formula-injection sanitiser on findings export
-- Serialised storage writes to eliminate cross-tab race conditions
-- 5000-finding cap with FIFO eviction
-- Per-tab alert badge with red-dot icon overlay when secrets are detected
-- MutationObserver scans dynamically-injected DOM nodes for SPA coverage
-- Explicit Content Security Policy in Chrome and Firefox manifests
-- `js/interceptor-loader.js` for both browsers, replacing direct MAIN-world content script on Firefox so the nonce handoff actually works
-- GitHub Actions release pipeline (`.github/workflows/release.yml`): on `v*` tag, build Chrome + Firefox zips, compute SHA256, attach to GitHub Release
-- GitHub Actions CI pipeline (`.github/workflows/ci.yml`): manifest JSON validation, Chrome <-> Firefox version parity check, build verification, `web-ext lint` on the Firefox bundle
-
-### Changed
-- Keyword input validation: 50 character maximum, 50 keyword maximum
-- Findings are now deleted by unique ID instead of URL substring match
-- URL parameter scanner uses exact match instead of substring (was matching `author` as `auth`)
-- Keyword scanner enforces word boundaries (was matching `key` inside `hotkey`, `monkey`)
-- camelCase JS identifiers are now skipped in keyword value matches
-- Sentry DSN downgraded from `high` to `low` severity (public by design)
-
-### Fixed
-- Stored finding race conditions across concurrent tabs
-- False positives from GitHub localStorage caches (`ref-selector:*`, `jump_to:*`, `soft-nav:*`, `COPILOT_*`)
-- False positives from common CSRF tokens (`authenticity_token`, `csrf_token`, `__RequestVerificationToken`)
-- False positives from keyboard shortcut data attributes (`data-hotkey`, `data-hotkey-scope`)
-
-## [2.0.0] - 2026-04-07
-
-### Added
-- Complete rewrite to Manifest V3
-- Enterprise-grade secret detection with 80+ regex patterns covering AWS, GCP, Azure, GitHub, GitLab, Stripe, PayPal, Square, Slack, Discord, and more
-- Firefox support (MV3, Firefox 128+)
-- Privacy policy
-- Replaced demo gifs with professional logo
-
-### Removed
-- Manifest V2 background page
-- Legacy jQuery dependency

-# Security Policy
-
-## Reporting a vulnerability
-
-Email **security reports** privately to the address on the maintainer's GitHub profile.
-Do **not** open a public issue for unpatched vulnerabilities.
-
-When reporting, include:
-- Affected version (`manifest.json` `version` field)
-- Browser and version
-- Steps to reproduce
-- Impact assessment (what an attacker gains)
-
-A response is targeted within 7 days.
-
-## Threat model
-
-KeyFinder runs as a content script in every page the user visits and reports findings to a service worker. It is **client-side, passive, and read-only** with respect to the page.
-
-### In scope
-- Privilege escalation from a malicious page into the extension's service worker
-- Persistent storage poisoning via crafted findings
-- Cross-tab data leakage through `chrome.storage`
-- CSV / JSON export injection (formulas, embedded HTML, JS)
-- Manifest / CSP weaknesses enabling code injection into the extension's own pages
-- Pattern-rule false positives that consistently leak benign data into findings
-
-### Out of scope
-- A malicious page generating **fake findings** in the user's results view. The MAIN-world interceptor and the ISOLATED content script communicate over `CustomEvent` with a per-page nonce stored as a `data-kf-verify` attribute on `documentElement`. The nonce is removed once the content script consumes it, but a page script that runs between `document_start` and `document_idle` can read the attribute and forge events. Mitigation cost is high (Symbols don't cross realms; postMessage is also page-visible). The impact is limited to **showing the user a finding that isn't real** - no data is exfiltrated, no privileged API is reached. Treat findings on a hostile page as advisory.
-- Detection accuracy of individual regex rules. False positives and false negatives are expected; report a tuning issue rather than a CVE.
-- Extension being uninstalled or disabled by the user.
-
-## What the extension can see
-
-| Surface | Scope |
-|---|---|
-| Page DOM | All pages (`<all_urls>`) at `document_idle` (ISOLATED world) and `document_start` (MAIN world interceptor) |
-| Network | `fetch` and `XMLHttpRequest` responses initiated by the page (response bodies up to 500 KB are scanned) |
-| Web storage | `localStorage`, `sessionStorage`, `document.cookie` on the page |
-| Inter-extension | None. No host permissions beyond `activeTab` and `storage` |
-
-The extension makes **no outbound network requests** other than fetching same-origin scripts already referenced by the page.
-
-## Known limitations
-
-- **Per-tab badge dot** is set on the first finding only; subsequent findings update the count but not the icon
-- **5000 finding cap** with FIFO eviction. High-volume scans (heavy SPAs over a long session) will drop oldest findings
-- **CSV export** prefixes a single-quote on cells starting with `=`, `+`, `-`, `@`, tab, or carriage return to neutralise Excel / Sheets formula injection. Line-feed prefix is not currently neutralised
-- **Service worker restarts** drop the in-flight `storageQueue` Promise chain. Subsequent storage writes are still serialised; only pending writes from the killed worker are lost
