This eliminates the gap in a reproducer for the React DevTools browser
extension from the source code that we submit to Firefox extension
stores.
We use the commit hash as part of the Backend version, here:
2cfb221937/packages/react-devtools-extensions/utils.js (L26-L38)
The problem is that we archive the source code for Mozilla extension
store reviews and there is no git. But since we still download the React
sources from the CI, we could reuse the hash from `build/COMMIT_HASH`
file.
This has been causing some issues with the submission review on Firefox
store: we use OS-level paths in these source maps, which makes the build
artifact different from the one that's been submitted.
Also saves ~100Kb for main.js artifact.
If there is a large owner stack, we could potentially spam multiple
fetch requests for the same source map. This adds a simple deduplication
logic, based on URL.
Also, this adds a timeout of 60 seconds to all fetch requests initiated
by fileFetcher content script.
This fixes the displaying of "rendered by" section if owner stacks
contained any native frames. This regressed after
https://github.com/facebook/react/pull/34185, where we added the
Suspense boundary for the StackTraceView.
This fails because the Promise that is responsible for symbolication of
the source is never getting resolved or rejected.
Previously, we would just throw an Error without sending a corresponding
message to the `main` script, and it would just cache a Promise that is
never resolved, hence the Suspense boundary for "rendered by" section is
never resolved.
In a separate change, I think we need to update StackTraceView component
to display `native` as location, instead of `:0`:

Stacked on #33983.
Allow React to be configured as the default handler of all links in
Chrome DevTools. To do this you need to configure the Chrome DevTools
setting for "Link Handling:" to be set to "React Developer Tools". By
default this doesn't do anything but if you then check the box added in
#33983 it starts open local files directly in the external editor.
This needs docs to show how to enable that option.
(As far as I can tell this broke in Chrome Canary 🙄 but hopefully fixed
before stable.)
When the browser theme changes, we don't immediately rerender the UI so
we don't pick up the new theme if the React devtools are set to auto.
This picks up the change immediately.
The `useOpenResource` hook is now used to open links. Currently, the
`<>` icon for the component stacks and the link in the bottom of the
components stack. But it'll also be used for many new links like stacks.
If this new option is configured, and this is a local file then this is
opened directly in the external editor. Otherwise it fallbacks to open
in the Sources tab or whatever the standalone or inline is configured to
use.

src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/04cae170-dd30-4485-a9ee-e8fe1612978e"
/>
I prominently surface this option in the Source pane to make it
discoverable.
<img width="588" height="144" alt="Screenshot 2025-07-24 at 4 03 48 PM"
src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/0f3a7da9-2fae-4b5b-90ec-769c5a9c5361"
/>
When this is configured, the "Open in Editor" is hidden since that's
just the default. I plan on deprecating this button to avoid having the
two buttons going forward.
Notably there's one exception where this doesn't work. When you click an
Action or Event listener it takes you to the Sources tab and you have to
open in editor from there. That's because we use the `inspect()`
mechanism instead of extracting the source location. That's because we
can't do the "throw trick" since these can have side-effects. The Chrome
debugger protocol would solve this but it pops up an annoying dialog. We
could maybe only attach the debugger only for that case. Especially if
the dialog disappears before you focus on the browser again.
I broke Firefox DevTools extension in #33968.
It turns out the Firefox has a placeholder object for the sources panel
which is empty. We need to detect the actual event handler.
This adds a "Code Editor" pane for the Chrome extension in the bottom
right corner of the "Sources" panel. If you end up getting linked to the
"Sources" panel from stack traces in console, performance tab, stacks in
React Component tab like the one added in #33954 basically everywhere
there's a link to source code. Then going from there to open in a code
editor should be more convenient. This adds a button to open the current
file.
<img width="1387" height="389" alt="Screenshot 2025-07-22 at 10 22

/>
This only makes sense in the extensions since in standalone it needs to
always open by default in an editor. Unfortunately Firefox doesn't
support extending the Sources panel.
Chrome is also a bit buggy where it doesn't send a selection update
event when you switch tabs in the Sources panel. Only when the actual
cursor position changes. This means that the link can be lagging behind
sometimes. We also have some general bugs where if React DevTools loses
connection it can break the UI which includes this pane too.
This has a small inline configuration too so that it's discoverable:
<img width="559" height="143" alt="Screenshot 2025-07-22 at 10 22 42 PM"
src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/1270bda8-ce10-4f9d-9fcb-080c0198366a"

src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/45848c95-afd8-495f-a7cf-eb2f46e698f2"
/>
Since we can't add a separate link to open-in-editor or open-in-sources
everywhere I plan on adding an option to open in editor by default in a
follow up. That option needs to be even more discoverable.
I moved the configuration from the Components settings to the General
settings since this is now a much more general features for opening
links to resources in all types of panes.

/>
In RSC and other stacks now we use a lot of `ReactFunctionLocation` type
to represent the location of a function. I.e. the location of the
beginning of the function (the enclosing line/col) that is represented
by the "Source" of the function. This is also what the parent Component
Stacks represents.
As opposed to `ReactCallSite` which is what normal stack traces and
owner stacks represent. I.e. the line/column number of the callsite into
the next function.
We can start sharing more code by using the `ReactFunctionLocation` type
to represent the component source location and it also helps clarify
which ones are function locations and which ones are callsites as we
start adding more stack traces (e.g. for async debug info and owner
stack traces).
## Summary
This tool leverages DevTools to get the component tree from the
currently open React App. This gives realtime information to agents
about the state of the app.
## How did you test this change?
Tested integration with Claude Desktop
## Summary
When using React DevTools to highlight component updates, the highlights
would sometimes appear behind elements that use the browser's
[top-layer](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Glossary/Top_layer)
(such as `<dialog>` elements or components using the Popover API). This
made it difficult to see which components were updating when they were
inside or behind top-layer elements.
This PR fixes the issue by using the Popover API to ensure that
highlighting appears on top of all content, including elements in the
top-layer. The implementation maintains backward compatibility with
browsers that don't support the Popover API.
## How did you test this change?
I tested this change in the following ways:
1. Manually tested in Chrome (which supports the Popover API) with:
- Created a test application with React components inside `<dialog>`
elements and custom elements using the Popover API
- Verified that component highlighting appears above these elements when
they update
- Confirmed that highlighting displays correctly for nested components
within top-layer elements
2. Verified backward compatibility:
- Tested in browsers without Popover API support to ensure fallback
behavior works correctly
- Confirmed that no errors occur and highlighting still functions as
before
3. Ran the React DevTools test suite:
- All tests pass successfully
- No regressions were introduced

### Chromium
We will use
[chrome.permissions](https://developer.chrome.com/docs/extensions/reference/api/permissions)
for checking / requesting `clipboardWrite` permission before copying
something to the clipboard.
### Firefox
We will keep `clipboardWrite` as a required permission, because there is
no reliable and working API for requesting optional permissions for
extensions that are extending browser DevTools:
- `chrome.permissions` is unavailable for devtools pages -
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1796933
- You can't call `chrome.permissions.request` from background, because
this instruction has to be executed inside user-event callback,
basically only initiated by user.
I don't really want to come up with solutions like opening a new tab
with a button that user has to click.
## Summary
This pull request addresses an issue where the copy functionality was
not working in Firefox. The root cause was the absence of the
'clipboardWrite' permission in the manifest. To ensure consistency
across all supported browsers, the 'clipboardWrite' permission has been
added to the manifests for Chrome, Edge, and Firefox extensions.
Closes#31422
## How did you test this change?
I ran the modified extension in all browsers (MacOS) and verified that
the copy functionality works in each.

This fixes RDT behaviour when some DOM element was pre-selected in
built-in browser's Elements panel, and then Components panel of React
DevTools was opened for the first time. With this change, React DevTools
will correctly display the initial state of the Components Tree with the
corresponding React Element (if possible) pre-selected.
Previously, we would only subscribe listener when `TreeContext` is
mounted, but this only happens when user opens one of React DevTools
panels for the first time. With this change, we keep state inside
`Store`, which is created when Browser DevTools are opened. Later,
`TreeContext` will use it for initial state value.
Planned next changes:
1. Merge `inspectedElementID` and `selectedElementID`, I have no idea
why we need both.
2. Fix issue with `AutoSizer` rendering a blank container.
Stacked on https://github.com/facebook/react/pull/31131. See last
commit.
This is a clean-up and a pre-requisite for next changes:
1. `ReloadAndProfileConfig` is now split into boolean value and settings
object. This is mainly because I will add one more setting soon, and
also because settings might be persisted for a longer time than the flag
which signals if the Backend was reloaded for profiling. Ideally, this
settings should probably be moved to the global Hook object, same as we
did for console patching.
2. Host is now responsible for reseting the cached values, Backend will
execute provided `onReloadAndProfileFlagsReset` callback.
Based on https://github.com/facebook/react/pull/31049, credits to
@EdmondChuiHW.
What is happening here:
1. Once Agent is destroyed, unsubscribe own listeners and bridge
listeners.
2. [Browser extension only] Once Agent is destroyed, unsubscribe
listeners from BackendManager.
3. [Browser extension only] I've discovered that `backendManager.js`
content script can get injected multiple times by the browser. When
Frontend is initializing, it will create Store first, and then execute a
content script for bootstraping backend manager. If Frontend was
destroyed somewhere between these 2 steps, Backend won't be notified,
because it is not initialized yet, so it will not unsubscribe listeners
correctly. We might end up duplicating listeners, and the next time
Frontend is launched, it will report an issues "Cannot add / remove node
...", because same operations are emitted twice.
To reproduce 3 you can do the following:
1. Click reload-to-profile
2. Right after when both app and Chrome DevTools panel are reloaded,
close Chrome DevTools.
3. Open Chrome DevTools again, open Profiler panel and observe "Cannot
add / remove node ..." error in the UI.

* Default, e.g. existing web impl = no-op

commit](248ddba186).
Now, we are using
[`chrome.storage`](https://developer.chrome.com/docs/extensions/reference/api/storage)
to persist settings for the browser extension across different sessions.
Once settings are updated from the UI, the `Store` will emit
`settingsUpdated` event, and we are going to persist them via
`chrome.storage.local.set` in `main/index.js`.
When hook is being injected, we are going to pass a `Promise`, which is
going to be resolved after the settings are read from the storage via
`chrome.storage.local.get` in `hookSettingsInjector.js`.
The current state is that `rendererInterface`, which contains all the
backend logic, like generating component stack or attaching errors to
fibers, or traversing the Fiber tree, ..., is only mounted after the
Frontend is created.
For browser extension, this means that we don't patch console or track
errors and warnings before Chrome DevTools is opened.
With these changes, `rendererInterface` is created right after
`renderer` is injected from React via global hook object (e. g.
`__REACT_DEVTOOLS_GLOBAL_HOOK__.inject(...)`.
Because of the current implementation, in case of multiple Reacts on the
page, all of them will patch the console independently. This will be
fixed in one of the next PRs, where I am moving console patching to the
global Hook.
This change of course makes `hook.js` script bigger, but I think it is a
reasonable trade-off for better DevX. We later can add more heuristics
to optimize the performance (if necessary) of `rendererInterface` for
cases when Frontend was connected late and Backend is attempting to
flush out too many recorded operations.
This essentially reverts https://github.com/facebook/react/pull/26563.
This reverts #19603.

Consensus seems to be that while the purple on is a bit clearer and
easier to read. The purple is not on brand so it doesn't look like
React. It looks ugly. It's distracting (too eye catching). Taking away
attention from other tabs in an unfair way.
It also gets worse with more tabs added. We plan on both adding another
tab and panes inside other tabs (elements/sources) soon. Each needs to
be marked somehow as part of React but spelling it out is too long.
Putting inside a second tab means two clicks and takes away real-estate
from our extension and doesn't solve the problem with extension panes in
other tabs. We also plan on adding multiple different tracks to the
Performance tab which also needs a name other than just React and
spelling out React as a prefix is too long. The Emoji is too
distracting. So it seems best to uniformly apply the symbol - albeit it
might just look like a dot to many.
Dark mode looks close to on brand:

Firefox [finally supports
`ExecutionWorld.MAIN`](https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1736575)
in content scripts, which means we can migrate the browser extension to
Manifest V3.
This PR also removes a bunch of no longer required explicit branching
for Firefox case, when we are using Manifest V3-only APIs.
We are also removing XMLHttpRequest injection, which is no longer needed
and restricted in Manifest V3. The new standardized approach (same as in
Chromium) doesn't violate CSP rules, which means that extension can
finally be used for apps running in production mode.
