Latest version
Version 1.0.5
Released Sep 4, 2026 - 250.08 KBWorks with firefox 142.0 and later- Ruler — live box model overlay — DevTools-style margin/border/padding/content visualization over the picked element, with live re-measurement on resize, scroll, and DOM mutations. Toggle in the Box Model section (sidebar and popup); measurements push to the UI in real time. Geometry helpers live in
core/csswith unit tests. - Persistent selection highlight — The picked element now stays outlined (blue) so you always know what is selected, including while navigating parent/child/sibling via DOM navigation. The outline follows the element on scroll/resize and auto-clears when the element leaves the DOM.
- Pick hover tooltip spacing preview — The pick tooltip now shows a margin/padding shorthand preview line while hovering.
- Pick mode no longer triggers navigation — Left-clicking a link (or any SPA-routed control) during picking navigated to a new page. Picking now mounts a full-viewport transparent shield that intercepts all pointer events, so the page never receives the click; the element under the cursor is resolved via
elementFromPoint. Works on links, buttons, and SPA routers. - Ruler size badge no longer covers padding — The W×H badge now floats above the margin box (flips below near the viewport top) and shows the full border-box size.
- AI prompts optimized — System prompt slimmed from 44 to 12 lines with an anti-hallucination grounding rule; AI evidence payloads switched to compact JSON (pretty-printing kept for human-facing exports), reducing token cost roughly 30-40%.
