-## 4. DEVELOPMENT & OPERATIONAL STANDARDS (THE "ZERO-DEFECT" MANDATE)
-*   **CODE QUALITY:**
-    *   **Principles:** Adhere strictly to **SOLID**, **DRY**, and **YAGNI** principles.
-    *   **TypeScript:** Enforce `strict: true` in `tsconfig.json`. Use latest ECMAScript features.
-    *   **Error Handling:** Implement robust, hierarchical error handling. Never swallow errors silently.
-*   **DEPENDENCY MANAGEMENT:**
-    *   **`package.json` / `pnpm-lock.yaml` (or similar):** Maintain meticulously. Use `pnpm` or `yarn@berry` for efficient, deterministic installs.
-    *   **Vulnerability Scanning:** Integrate `npm audit` or `pnpm audit` into CI.
-*   **TESTING STRATEGY:**
-    *   **Unit Tests (`vitest`):** Cover all critical business logic and utility functions. Aim for >80% code coverage.
-    *   **Integration Tests:** Verify interactions between different modules.
-    *   **End-to-End Tests (`playwright`):** Simulate user flows within actual browser environments. Execute against production-like builds.
-*   **CI/CD (`.github/workflows/ci.yml`):**
-    *   **Trigger:** On `push` and `pull_request` to `main` and `develop` branches.
-    *   **Pipeline Stages:** Install dependencies -> Lint & Format -> Build -> Unit Test -> E2E Test.
-    *   **Artifacts:** Store build artifacts and test reports.
-    *   **Security:** Integrate SAST (e.g., `semgrep`) and dependency scanning.
-*   **CONFIGURATION MANAGEMENT:**
-    *   **Environment Variables:** Use `.env` files for local development and CI/CD secrets management.
-    *   **Build Configuration:** Vite configuration should optimize for extension requirements (e.g., content script injection, background service workers).
+    *   **Stack:** This project enforces **TypeScript 6.x (Strict Mode)**. It uses **Vite 7** (via Rollup) for bundling, configured for extension output targets (Manifest V3). State management relies on Signals for reactivity within the UI components.
+    *   **Lint/Test:** **Biome** is mandatory for formatting and linting (absolute 100% coverage required). **Vitest** for Unit/Component testing. **Playwright** must be used for E2E testing across Chrome and Firefox environments, focusing on content script injection reliability.
+    *   **Architecture:** Adheres strictly to **Feature-Sliced Design (FSD)** principles to segment background service workers, content scripts, and popup/options UIs. All state must be managed via context or dedicated stores (no global leakage).
+    *   **Security Mandate:** Must comply fully with **Manifest V3 (MV3)** requirements. All network requests must be declarative or handled safely within the Service Worker scope. CSP must be hardened to prevent XSS.

-## 5. AI AGENT DIRECTIVES FOR `JSErrorFlow-Real-Time-Visualizer-Browser-Extension`
+## 4. ARCHITECTURAL & CODE PRINCIPLES
+Agents must enforce the following mandates in all code generation and modification tasks:
 
-<details>
-<summary><b>🤖 EXPAND AGENT DIRECTIVES</b></summary>
+1.  **SOLID Compliance:** Every class, module, or functional unit must adhere to Single Responsibility and Dependency Inversion principles. High cohesion, low coupling is non-negotiable.
+2.  **DRY Enforcement:** Avoid redundant logic. Utility functions for DOM manipulation, error formatting, and messaging must be centralized.
+3.  **YAGNI (You Aren't Gonna Need It):** Scope creep is prohibited. Focus only on achieving the specified DOM error visualization goal with maximum performance.
+4.  **Performance Baseline:** Given this is a low-latency debugging tool, performance is critical. Minimize runtime overhead in content scripts. Debounce/throttle all expensive DOM scanning operations.
+5.  **Testing Verification:** Code changes are only considered complete if they are covered by passing Unit tests (Vitest) AND verified by a successful E2E scenario (Playwright).
 
-This section outlines the core directives and architectural principles for AI agents interacting with this repository. It is critical for maintaining consistency, quality, and future compatibility.
-
-### **1. PRIMARY REPOSITORY CONTEXT**
-*   **Name:** `JSErrorFlow-Real-Time-Visualizer-Browser-Extension`
-*   **Description:** A browser extension that visually highlights JavaScript errors directly on DOM elements in real-time. This developer tool streamlines frontend debugging, boosts productivity, and provides immediate, intuitive visual feedback to accelerate development cycles. Pinpoint and fix errors faster.
-*   **Primary Technology Stack:** TypeScript 6.x, Vite 7, WXT, Tauri v2 (optional), Biome, Vitest, Playwright.
-*   **Architectural Pattern:** Feature-Sliced Design (FSD).
-
-### **2. CORE OPERATIONAL PRINCIPLES**
-*   **Apex Protocol Adherence:** All interactions must strictly adhere to the Apex Technical Authority's standards, prioritizing **Zero-Defect, High-Velocity, Future-Proof** development.
-*   **Code Integrity:** Maintain absolute code quality. Enforce strict TypeScript, Biome linting, and comprehensive testing via Vitest and Playwright.
-*   **Documentation:** Keep all documentation (README, AGENTS.md, contributing guides) synchronized with the codebase and current industry best practices.
-*   **Security First:** Proactively identify and mitigate security vulnerabilities. Integrate security scanning tools into CI/CD pipelines.
-*   **Performance Optimization:** Ensure optimal performance for the browser extension, minimizing resource consumption and impact on user browsing experience.
-
-### **3. AGENT ACTIONABLE DIRECTIVES**
-*   **Code Generation/Modification:** 
-    *   **Linter & Formatter:** Always run `biome format` and `biome lint` before committing changes.
-    *   **Build Tool:** Utilize `vite` for building the extension. Ensure `wxt` configurations are respected for browser compatibility.
-    *   **Testing:** Execute tests using `vitest` (unit/component) and `playwright` (E2E) as specified in the CI pipeline.
-    *   **TypeScript:** Leverage advanced TypeScript features and strict type checking (`noImplicitAny`, `strictNullChecks`).
-*   **Architecture & Design:**
-    *   **FSD Compliance:** Ensure all new features or modifications align with the FSD structure (e.g., `app`, `processes`, `pages`, `widgets`, `features`, `entities`, `shared`).
-    *   **State Management:** Use Signals for UI state. For background or cross-tab communication, implement robust message passing mechanisms.
-*   **Debugging & Analysis:**
-    *   **Error Visualization:** Focus on enhancing the real-time DOM error highlighting mechanism. Ensure accuracy, performance, and clear visual cues.
-    *   **Content Script Integration:** Safely and efficiently inject content scripts into target pages.
-    *   **Background Service Worker:** Manage extension lifecycle, API calls, and inter-script communication.
-*   **Toolchain Management:**
-    *   **Package Manager:** Use `pnpm` or `yarn@berry` for dependency management.
-    *   **Development Server:** Leverage Vite's dev server (`vite dev`) for rapid iteration.
-
-### **4. DEPLOYMENT & ARCHIVAL PROTOCOL**
-*   **Deployment:** Package the extension for Chrome and Firefox using `wxt`'s build commands. Ensure compatibility with latest browser extension APIs.
-*   **Archival:** If a repository is marked for archival, update its metadata (Name, Description, Topics) to reflect its historical significance and professional quality, following the "Retired Product" standard. All documentation must remain pristine.
+---
 
-### **5. SAFETY & SECURITY**
-*   **API Usage:** Sanitize all inputs and outputs when interacting with the DOM or browser APIs to prevent XSS and other injection attacks.
-*   **Permissions:** Request the minimum necessary browser permissions.
-*   **Third-Party Libraries:** Regularly audit dependencies for security vulnerabilities using `pnpm audit`.
+## 5. VERIFICATION AND DEPLOYMENT COMMANDS
+Agents must be prepared to execute the following commands to verify system health against the expected stack:
 
-### **6. COMMUNICATION PROTOCOL**
-*   **Log Verbosity:** Utilize appropriate logging levels (`info`, `warn`, `error`). Avoid excessive `debug` logs in production builds.
-*   **Error Reporting:** Implement a mechanism to report critical errors back to the developer (e.g., via a dedicated logging service or console output in dev mode).
+| Task | Command | Expected Outcome |
+| :--- | :--- | :--- |
+| Dependency Install | `npm install` | All dependencies resolved via package.json. |
+| Lint & Format Check | `npx @biomejs/biome check --apply` | Zero format warnings; all linting issues fixed or flagged for review. |
+| Unit Test Run | `npx vitest run` | 100% test suite passes; coverage above 95%. |
+| E2E Verification | `npx playwright test` | All end-to-end scenarios pass on configured browsers. |
+| Build Artifacts | `npm run build` | Successful creation of deployable zip artifacts matching Manifest V3 structure. |
