Let's do some planning.
2026-01-01T19:21:29.867Z
I want to build a temporary block and temporary mute feature into Bluesky's web view. Defaults should be 24-hour for both. What's the best way to do this?
2026-01-01T19:22:04.588Z
Let's do this as a browser extension and keep planning.
2026-01-01T19:23:41.194Z
Show me a mockup of what this will look like in the Bluesky menus.
2026-01-01T19:24:07.273Z
No, this is good and it's what I'm looking for, thank you.
2026-01-01T19:24:20.865Z
Build away!
2026-01-01T19:34:16.370Z

i created icons in Gemini and put 'em in the folder, are they not working correctly?
2026-01-01T19:47:23.912Z
can you do the resizing?

2026-01-04T04:58:29.279Z
instead, let's do this each time in future: branch off main and make a pull request when we're done refactoring. create hooks to run our unit tests on each pull request. lint and format on each MR. only merge when coverage is >95%, linter and formatter checks pass, and tests pass.
2026-01-04T05:23:08.865Z
ok, let's do step 2 and see if we can merge

2026-01-04T05:28:48.973Z
take a look at ErgoBlock. review the code, write unit tests aiming for as close as possible to 95% coverage, and write some integration tests as you see fit.

also the size is still wrong, thumbnails too small compared to "followed by" style. please fix.

avatars still too small and too tightly spaced. see screenshot:

slightly too big. is there a way you can look up the "Followed by" size and spacing?
2026-01-05T23:54:20.317Z
can you display "Not blocked by anyone you follow" and "Not blocking anyone you follow" for those cases?
2026-01-06T00:00:31.241Z
we're caching block lists for people we follow, correct? or how are those stored?

no, i want this to work if pointed at any account and that change would break functionality for profiles of users i don't follow. tell me about the bloom filter approach?
2026-01-06T00:33:26.708Z
that means no false positives on clickthrough, correct?

ok. for the display, i want to create an alternative-- a single sentence that reads "Blocked by XX people you follow and blocking YY people you follow." No pfps, no usernames visible on the page, but if you click through the blocked-by or blocking parts you get the same clickthrough we have now. I want that to be the default setting with an option to switch it to the way it is right now.

this is how the message currently displays and I'm pretty sure the "blocked by" section is just always showing as empty. please fix the logic and the spacing.

I also want to capture the context that inspired the user to block/mute in cases where you're blocking/muting from a tweet. Can we take a screenshot of the interaction on block/mute and store that locally?

yes please
2026-01-06T19:00:42.044Z

how much work would it be to make this work in Firefox?
2026-01-06T19:08:10.904Z
yes, please make a plan for that and then spin up a Haiku model to implement.
2026-01-06T19:30:33.806Z
ok, push a new release to github

ok, push a new release to github
2026-01-07T18:46:03.989Z
as implemented this breaks "mute thread" functionality. can you take a look and see if you can fix that?
2026-01-07T18:51:00.376Z
let's start thinking about how to make this a fully-featured block/mute manager, including ingesting your existing block/mute lists. This may mean moving away from the popup functionality for the full lists-- maybe we just store recents+expired+expiring soon in there? I like the history functionality and would like that to be accessible and probably exportable into CSV through the extension menu.
2026-01-07T19:09:29.506Z
please do
2026-01-07T19:20:42.559Z
'background.scripts' requires manifest version of 2 or lower.
2026-01-07T19:21:51.432Z
all of our primary testing is in Chrome, for reference, so let's do future loads in a way that makes that easier
2026-01-07T19:23:43.110Z
does the PDS store when you wrote a block, or can we not get that out of the PDS?
2026-01-07T19:25:52.100Z
yes, let's do both calls please. i would also like to build out the history tab with a best-guess-- that is to say, for blocks/mutes we import, find the most recent reply or QT from the blocked person to me and put that as the history, clearly labeled as a guess rather than how new history notes are labeled.
2026-01-07T19:47:43.301Z
implement that View Post feature
2026-01-07T19:54:04.768Z
got some visual issues on the right here:

looks good! where are we on the functionality where we take a guess at the reasons for imported blocks/mutes?
2026-01-07T20:07:02.671Z
if it's implemented, why am I not seeing guesses for my imported blocks and mutes?
2026-01-07T20:10:51.937Z
no, I want to go back in time and find contexts from the time of the block/mute
2026-01-07T20:15:06.191Z
throwing a bunch of errors for cases where the person has blocked me; can we handle those cases better (and display them as mutual blocks in the full manager somehow)?
2026-01-07T20:26:02.328Z
"syncing" appears from the full manager and doesn't go away
2026-01-07T20:37:46.178Z
ok, it looks like it's doing a decent job pulling context for mutes but never for blocks. is this because our block is preventing us from seeing?
2026-01-07T20:42:27.228Z
uh oh, is this overriding the old timestamps on blocks when we unblock/reblock?
2026-01-07T20:56:00.167Z
is there a way for us to just bypass the Bluesky client directly and look at the pds so we don't need to mess with unblocking/reblocking?
2026-01-07T21:20:10.849Z
i think this is missing posts that fit the criteria
2026-01-07T21:28:09.877Z
dates on the Post Contexts page are showing up as today's dates when they should be the date of the referenced post
2026-01-07T21:31:16.432Z
everywhere in the full manager another user appears, I want to be able to see:
- if I'm blocking them
- if they're blocking me
- if I follow them
- if they follow me
- if I'm muting them
can you add fields appropriately? make them compact visually, don't want to add too much junk
2026-01-07T21:45:56.855Z
"sort by date" is not sorting by date, not sure what the sort order is, take a look
2026-01-07T21:48:06.787Z
i'd like to be able to unblock/unmute people from the Post Context pane
2026-01-07T21:54:07.495Z
let's rethink the display on blocking me/blocked/following me/following, because what you did is very confusing. can we add one field that displays "blocked/mutual blocks/blocking me/no blocks", one that displays "following me/followed/mutual follow/no follow", and one that says whether or not I mute them?
2026-01-07T22:00:39.317Z
i like the color coding on mutual blocks, please extend that (with a different color) to blocking-me wherever it appears
2026-01-07T22:04:56.851Z
it's showing zeros, can you include imported blocks/mutes?
2026-01-07T22:06:33.367Z
sort by date is still screwed up also on Post Context. i want the date we sort by there to be the same date we're displaying in the date field
2026-01-07T22:08:20.616Z
i'm still seeing a lot of fetch-100-posts in the console when I run detect context. are these only on mutes or is some of that code still around? I thought we axed it.
2026-01-07T22:17:45.323Z
CONSOLE LOG C/P
2026-01-07T22:18:23.699Z
still seeing the 100 Posts thing there. why are we using it for manual detect-context?
2026-01-07T22:19:08.258Z
i want it to use the same path we're using elsewhere: find the most recent interaction (reply/quote/mention) from them towards us
2026-01-07T22:25:06.686Z
ok, for imported blocks where we did not find context I want a manual button to find context on an individual basis, one person at a time
2026-01-07T22:28:42.577Z
ErgoBlock again. Let's load it up and make some improvements.
2026-01-07T22:31:59.649Z
i want to merge the Post Contexts in with the block/mute tabs-- can we widen the tables to do that and make it look nice?
2026-01-07T22:48:21.477Z
ok let's rethink layout a bit. i need status to be a text field; it's fine if it has two or more text labels in there. let's make the Find Context button match to the View button visually.
2026-01-07T22:51:33.844Z

2026-01-07T22:53:10.197Z

2026-01-07T22:55:56.384Z
give me arrows to flip the sort at the top of fields, kinda like wiki does
2026-01-07T23:03:59.221Z
Can you write a json document or markdown or something that we can load when we compact instead of needing to load everything we're currently loading? This is taking up way too much of the context window
2026-01-07T23:09:08.286Z
awesome, let's get this up on GitHub
2026-01-07T23:10:57.506Z
let's make another release for this
2026-01-07T23:18:17.610Z
ok, next new feature: I want an Amnesty tab with a button that, when you hit it, randomly presents you with one person you have blocked with the following characteristics:
- initial block at least 3 months ago
- not blocking you
- not previously selected by Amnesty
and finds and displays their most recent interaction if we don't already have it up, complete with link to context and our unblock/reblock logic.
and then you can Thumbs Up to unblock them or Thumbs Down to keep them blocked.
2026-01-07T23:25:53.856Z
let's make the 90 day window user definable in response to a question like "How long does it take you to forgive?" and display how many amnesty candidates there are on the Amnesty page as well.
2026-01-07T23:30:53.057Z
awright, push that to github release as 1.6.1
2026-01-07T23:37:37.550Z
does it make sense to rebuild this in react or vue at this point?
2026-01-07T23:48:28.102Z
is there a fast way to compile a list of all Bluesky users who block you?
2026-01-07T23:48:49.534Z
sure
2026-01-07T23:50:29.960Z
please. do you know how this would handle blocks from blocklists?
2026-01-07T23:52:35.155Z
let's hold off on this for now
2026-01-08T01:05:02.064Z
let's add mutes to Amnesty. for imported mutes, we'll need to look for the last interaction before the mute timestamp
2026-01-08T01:10:11.701Z
push this to github as 1.6.2
2026-01-08T01:26:13.132Z
i would like to do something that checks the list of people you're following and the list of people who follow you against all blocklists you subscribe to, to ID which people are both follows/following and blocked by a blocklist along with which blocklist. have thoughts on how to fold that into what we're doing here?
2026-01-08T01:27:17.237Z
re 3) i think we want to group by blocklist-- basically the question here is whether we want to ditch the blocklist, correct? or is there a way to whitelist people out of a blocklist you follow?
2026-01-08T01:27:38.451Z
that's great
2026-01-08T01:39:10.066Z
let's push this as 1.6.3 and then start planning the Preact rewrite
2026-01-08T02:51:44.550Z

2026-01-08T02:54:55.644Z

ok, i'm almost ready to push this as a release. any ideas for other optimizations or improvements before we do that?
2026-01-08T03:55:37.084Z
did you write tests for Tests for new search code - The new findContextViaSearch and isSearchPostInteraction functions don't have tests.?
2026-01-08T03:59:52.518Z
looks like if you do several Amnesty queries in a row, performance might suffer. Can you take a look?
2026-01-08T04:04:36.725Z
ok, let's version bump. this includes the Preact rewrite, correct?
2026-01-08T04:14:43.891Z

ok, let's push the build we have as 1.7.1
2026-01-08T05:08:34.650Z
build 1.7.0 broke for a user who is using Chromium-based Edge. Ideas on fixing?
2026-01-08T05:15:09.487Z
can we add an Amnesty field to All Blocks and All Mutes? Value should be "Denied" or "Unreviewed", think that covers everything.
2026-01-08T05:21:55.373Z
that field needs sort arrows also

when we do a deep search for interaction through Amnesty, how deep are we going?

can we also check our own PDS to see if there's a more recent interaction from us to them?
2026-01-08T19:05:25.237Z
ok push that as 1.8.2.
2026-01-08T19:09:27.747Z

user wants to be able to block someone who liked a post from a list of people who liked that post and have ErgoBlock remember them liking that post as the reason why. seems like if we get that we can do it for RT lists also. thoughts on how to make it work?

2026-01-08T19:19:16.506Z

2026-01-08T19:24:16.016Z
let's do it
2026-01-08T19:43:22.936Z
when we look back for interactions, do we find replies further down a thread (and not necessarily directly to me, but in a thread I started or posted in)?
2026-01-08T19:49:52.038Z
i think we gotta skip this, the false positive problem is significant

let's work on something else for the moment. I'd like to plan out a new feature-- i want to see notifications only from users who I follow, who follow me, or who have more than 10k (user definable) followers. Does it make sense to build this functionality into this extension, and how much work would it be?
2026-01-10T20:49:24.013Z
I'd like a function that suggests starter packs based on your activity

2026-01-10T21:20:32.266Z
but really there are a ton of interactions more recent than the one displayed which was from Nov 2024
2026-01-10T21:21:33.619Z
i didn't reblock this person, there was no old context that's being mishandled. this is the first time it autodetected context and it autodetected the wrong thing as context
2026-01-11T00:30:24.610Z
yes please!
2026-01-11T00:37:00.256Z
ok, current autoimputed contexts aren't reloading on sync-- can we fix that?
2026-01-11T00:48:02.572Z
ok, build and commit
2026-01-11T00:50:56.943Z
first thing, need some kind of visual indicator on the "sync now" button in full manager to indicate that a sync is in progress so we don't double press it
2026-01-11T00:54:27.592Z
second, i'm still getting the wrong thing for context on that same item

2026-01-11T15:21:44.643Z
Working on ErgoBlock. I want a fresh approach here: take a look at the code for how we impute context on blocks that happened outside of ErgoBlock and describe to me the search process and then priority order for what single context interaction shows up in the Full Manager view.
2026-01-11T15:25:54.044Z
aren't phase 1 searches going to be hampered by blocks?
2026-01-11T15:26:40.801Z
but blocks break conversation threads between two users, even for users who aren't logged in. are we positive this will successfully return what we're looking for?
2026-01-11T15:27:43.535Z
how about we create the ability to explore more robust context from the Full Manager view instead, so that users can look at more than one interaction if they want?
2026-01-11T18:07:52.030Z
ok, this is 100% missing interactions. thoughts?
2026-01-11T18:08:31.510Z
it's missing like all the interactions. i'm not talking about expanding functionality, this is missing functionality. compact and let's look at this afterwards

if we're repeatedly searching our own PDS does it make sense to just preload the whole thing instead of hitting it five times for every search?
2026-01-11T22:12:46.919Z
oh wait i see we have some expired token issues. could that be causing the 403s?
2026-01-11T22:16:31.643Z
is there any way to pull from the PDS in reverse chronological order rather than in chronological order?
2026-01-11T22:18:48.841Z
ok! this fixed it at least for the expansion, it is now properly loading newer posts first. i think default order is newest-first
2026-01-11T22:20:00.090Z
fantastic, that's going to make our context defaults much more accurate. thanks for tracking that down with me
2026-01-11T22:22:52.627Z
ok. walk me through when we impute context defaults, because I think our thinking is fuzzy on a bit of that-- we assumed that once someone is using ErgoBlock new blocks will be through ErgoBlock, but a lot of users (me included) use the Bluesky app on mobile and only have ErgoBlock on desktop.
2026-01-11T22:27:29.228Z
let's go 500 posts deep for that scenario
2026-01-11T22:27:49.217Z
also i think we want bidirectional, we're still caching our whole PDS anyway
2026-01-11T22:31:09.841Z
is our Amnesty function using this same logic now or does it still use older logic?
2026-01-11T22:32:27.238Z
can we add the option to expand to Amnesty, just like on the all-blocks tab?
2026-01-11T22:41:47.027Z
ok, let's push this to main as 1.8.5. what do we have hanging around in feature branches to work on?
2026-01-11T22:48:44.693Z
let's crack open starter pack suggestions, see where we were and where we were going. goals are: 1) improve starter pack management, both for creation and for use 2) specifically allow a function to unfollow everyone you followed from a starter pack that you weren't following when you followed-all from a starter pack, so that you can reverse follow-all from a starter pack 3) suggest starter packs to recommend to others based on user activity (so maybe, here's my closest 150 from the last 30 days, here are subject clusters)
2026-01-11T22:58:14.492Z
1 please
2026-01-12T16:40:08.010Z
ok profile keywords is definitely not the way to do this. have other ideas?
2026-01-12T16:40:41.730Z
- please
2026-01-12T17:04:12.975Z
ok, let's rethink this. what I'm really looking for are ways to group people who 1) i follow into 2) communities of interest. the idea here is to easily produce starter packs to share with other people by topic. Maybe the user inputs topic and then we create a pack based on it? for instance, I might want one NFL starter pack culled from people i follow who post about football and interact with each other
2026-01-12T17:08:18.086Z
definitely option 2, hashtag use on Bluesky is pretty minimal
2026-01-12T17:20:10.536Z
how would it order those people? also starter pack cap is 150 now
2026-01-12T17:28:08.954Z
Your Starter Packs is not loading our starter packs properly
2026-01-12T17:32:28.750Z
ok. let's flip back to Context. I'm unhappy with that implementation and I want to revisit it, but we're going to be experimenting here, so please make it easy to revert to current functionality. I'd like to try out doing this through sequential unblock/public API search/reblock.
2026-01-12T17:40:13.642Z
where is our options page?
2026-01-12T17:57:47.543Z
ok. When does the experimental routine fire?
2026-01-12T17:58:42.734Z
so it isn't feeding into All Blocks at all in any way?

2026-01-12T17:59:48.751Z
abandon it
2026-01-12T18:09:03.783Z
ok. i want to revisit sync because it takes a while and I think we can streamline it. instead of current behavior what I want to do for the All Blocks tab is:
- load our entire block list
- load our direct context (context from blocks we've made from posts)
- load imputed context we have already searched for only.
- do not search for imputed context AT ALL until we ask for a search, either through Amnesty or through this page.
let's build that and then talk about what happens when we search for imputed context.
2026-01-12T18:15:03.383Z
i want to think through this. we have basically two approaches: unblock/search/reblock or PDS. is that correct, or do you see other viable paths?
2026-01-12T18:16:01.991Z
yeah do that please
2026-01-12T18:18:41.263Z

yeah, do that
2026-01-12T18:54:59.921Z
ok. i want to look at how we're doing syncs and re-evaluate that. currently, when we sync my understanding is that we go get everything. I want to instead do the following:
- get our own block list.
- get context produced by ErgoBlock (when we block from a post)
- get context we have previously searched for through Amnesty or through All Blocks.
- do not search for context on other blocks unless asked.
implement this and then we'll talk about what to do if we ask for context.
2026-01-12T18:57:50.608Z

SelfStarter: a browser extension for creating starter packs for Bluesky. Create a new project for this. User inputs a Bluesky handle and then we return a proposed starter pack consisting of the most-interacted-with users over a user defined time period for that handle. Interface for proposed starter pack should be top 200 users with checkboxes so user can kick out/include people who are marginal; user should be able to define number of prechecked checkboxes up to 150 (max size of starter pack) and UI should let us know how many we have checked/how many over 150 we are. Then if user wants to publish starter pack they can.

Default description should be in the format "the 50 accounts PropterMalone interacted with the most in the last 30 days as of 1/12/2026" where 50=number of accounts, 30 days=time period we searched on, and the date is the date the starter pack was generated.

this is interesting-- during the conversation it finished hanging and started syncing

2026-01-15T23:19:14.762Z
it's hard for me to imagine that the CAR approach will be slower than what we're doing now. could we lower the API cap down low (like 500 blocks) and CAR anyone who exceeds that threshold?

load up ErgoBlock, have a two new features I want to plan. Feature 1: ability to block/mute from notifications. Feature 2: by-profile option to disable reposts from specific users you follow from appearing in your feed.
2026-01-16T16:35:35.963Z
Look at ErgoBlock, lint and fix lint errors, format and fix format errors, and then refactor.

working in ErgoBlock, if we're pulling CAR files, is there an easy way to check for differences between CAR files we've previously cached and current CAR files without pulling the whole CAR again?

check ErgoBlock project-- is the functionality to turn off retweets from specific people implemented? I'm not seeing how to actually use it, although there's a tab for it.
2026-01-16T17:18:42.140Z
for some of these people with a large number of blocks, the structure is that they have a small number of manual blocks but subscribe to blocklists with a very large number of blocks. is there a better way we can handle those?

i thought we weren't calling individual blocklist members through the API
2026-01-16T21:51:26.939Z
how many blocklists are we talking about here total? could we just grab the list authors CARs to get them?
2026-01-16T21:52:47.668Z
let's do the deep sync feature and plan on direct blocks only as the main functionality
2026-01-16T16:53:20.470Z
Context ErgoBlock is a browser extension that syncs block lists from users you follow on Bluesky. When a user has 500+ blocks, it downloads their entire repository as a CAR file instead of using paginated API calls.
Problem: CAR downloads for users with large repositories are timing out at the 30-second USER_SYNC_TIMEOUT_MS limit. The logs show failures like:
[ErgoBlock] Failed to sync [handle].bsky.social: Timeout after 30000ms: [handle].bsky.social Recent changes: Incremental sync support was just added to reduce bandwidth by:
Calling getLatestCommit to check if repo changed Using since parameter to fetch only diffs Storing repoRev in cache However, the timeout issue still affects:
First sync of heavy blockers (no cached rev yet) Users whose PDS doesn't support incremental sync Any full CAR download that takes >30s Files to Modify src/block-relationships/sync.ts - Contains timeout constants and sync logic src/carRepo.ts - CAR download functions (already has incremental support) Current Timeout Structure
// sync.ts const FETCH_TIMEOUT_MS = 10000; // Per-request timeout (API calls) const USER_SYNC_TIMEOUT_MS = 30000; // Overall timeout per user
// Line 332-335: Timeout wraps entire getUserBlocks call const blocks = await withTimeout( getUserBlocks(follow.did, follow.pdsUrl), USER_SYNC_TIMEOUT_MS, follow.handle ); Suggested Fix Increase USER_SYNC_TIMEOUT_MS to 60-90 seconds for CAR downloads, or Add separate timeout handling for CAR vs API paths, or Add retry queue for timed-out users to retry on next sync cycle The incremental sync already helps subsequent syncs, but first-time syncs of heavy users still need longer timeouts or graceful degradation.
Key Functions getUserBlocks() in sync.ts:184 - Hybrid API/CAR fetch fetchBlocksFromCarIncremental() in carRepo.ts:330 - New incremental sync processBatch() in sync.ts:319 - Where timeout is applied updateFollowBlockList() in cache.ts:87 - Now accepts repoRev parameter Test Trigger a sync with 2800+ follows. Watch for timeout errors in console. After fix, heavy blockers should complete without timeout (or fail gracefully with partial data).

Still working on ErgoBlock. The popup menus for block and mute notifications are almost good, but two things:
- we don't need to add a second ... to notifications that have it natively, like this one:

2026-01-17T22:23:00.069Z
i want to be able to select a particular list you own. the goal is to see if list members still belong on the list. this should be an option with amnesty. You should be able to remove from list or keep on list and mark as reviewed.

What we're scanning for when we scan is our own CAR. We frequently download our own CAR for this and other purposes, so it would be useful to 1) check to see if we already have a version downloaded 2) only download changes if we already have a version downloaded. When we're downloading a new CAR I'd also like to see an estimate of how big the download is and a progress bar for how far through the download we are.
We may need to think more generally about how we handle our own CAR file for this and other ErgoBlock functions for this one, so let's go into plan mode for it.

what do you think is the best approach here? the typical scenario is that we have minor recent changes to our CAR (because we've been active on Bluesky) that don't affect the past mass actions we want to investigate; i don't want to reload the CAR every time for that reason. maybe we should change the CAR download to a manual request trigger only and just parse a stale CAR that is likely stale in irrelevant ways?

i've already got 1) in there. sampling might work, could also background cache it and just turn it on when it's go time? or is this gettable from Clearsky API maybe?
2026-01-18T22:55:01.519Z
oooh, i like the background cache plan as long as we also fetch it on demand
2026-01-18T22:55:27.430Z
no, this is great, build away!

ok major issue for ErgoBlock amnesty. if you peek at a tweet they made to see if you should amnesty them, and then you amnesty them, they get reblocked by the reblock logic from the peek

2026-01-19T15:31:54.708Z
Making updates to ErgoBlock. Three things to do:
- The extension (i think) is now occasionally logging me out of my Bluesky account. Please check to see if this is is the extension's behavior or something else, and if it's us fix it.
- on the Blocklist Audit tab, I want to add an option for blocklists you basically want to use but that block some people you follow to instead copy the entire blocklist as individual blocks except for those people. We now have functionality that makes this easily reversible in Mass Ops so this should be fine now, but please make sure that anything we're doing here is in fact easily reversible using Mass Ops.
2026-01-19T16:09:16.334Z
ok. for Repost Filters I'd like the option to use the search functionality to select people by handle instead of having to go to their profile.
2026-01-19T16:11:42.778Z
the menu population for Disable Reposts is slow, especially when we've just followed someone which is a frequent use case for it. Can we take a look at how to fix?
2026-01-19T15:52:11.934Z
Agent 1: Fix Logout Issue
Working on ErgoBlock extension at C:\Users[REDACTED]\ergoblock
TASK: Fix occasional logout issue
PROBLEM:
The extension marks authStatus: 'invalid' too aggressively in checkExpirations() (background.ts:1910-1918) when it can't get fresh auth from a Bluesky tab - even if stored tokens are still valid.
SOLUTION: Don't mark auth invalid just because we can't reach a tab - only mark invalid on actual API failures (401, ExpiredToken).
CHANGES TO MAKE:
-
In src/background.ts, modify
checkExpirations()(~line 1916):- Remove the line
await browser.storage.local.set({ authStatus: 'invalid' }); - Just skip the check silently when requestFreshAuth() returns null
- The stored tokens may still be valid, we just can't verify right now
- Remove the line
-
The code in
bgApiRequest()(lines 259, 278, 286) that marks auth invalid on actual API failures (401, ExpiredToken) should remain unchanged - that behavior is correct.
VERIFICATION:
- Close all Bluesky tabs
- Wait for the expiration check interval (1-10 minutes based on settings)
- Verify extension doesn't mark user as logged out
- Open a Bluesky tab, verify auth syncs and works normally
Run tests and build when done.

Agent 2: Copy Blocklist as Individual Blocks
Working on ErgoBlock extension at C:\Users[REDACTED]\ergoblock
TASK: Add "Copy as Individual Blocks" feature to Blocklist Audit tab
FEATURE: Add a button per blocklist in the Blocklist Audit tab that copies all members as individual permanent blocks, EXCLUDING anyone the user follows. This is reversible via Mass Ops since all blocks happen rapidly.
CHANGES TO MAKE:
-
In src/components/manager/BlocklistAuditTab.tsx:
- Add "Copy as Blocks" button to the BlocklistGroup component (next to Dismiss/Unsubscribe buttons)
- Add confirmation dialog explaining that follows will be excluded and this is reversible via Mass Ops
- Add state for copying progress (copying: string | null, copyProgress?)
- Add handler that sends COPY_BLOCKLIST_AS_INDIVIDUAL_BLOCKS message
-
In src/background.ts:
- Add message handler for 'COPY_BLOCKLIST_AS_INDIVIDUAL_BLOCKS'
- Create handleCopyBlocklistAsIndividualBlocks(listUri: string) function:
a. Get auth, return error if not authenticated
b. Fetch all list members via fetchListMembers(auth, listUri)
c. Get user's follows to filter out (use existing social graph/follows storage)
d. Get existing blocks to avoid duplicates (getPermanentBlocks, getTempBlocks)
e. Block each non-followed, non-blocked member:
- Use bgApiRequest to create block record
- Rate limit with 100ms delay between blocks
- Add history entries f. Return { success, blocked, skipped, error? }
NOTES:
- Copied blocks are always permanent (matches blocklist behavior)
- Use existing fetchListMembers() function from background.ts
- Mass Ops will detect these as a cluster (rapid blocks within 5-min window)
- Follow the existing code patterns for message handlers
Run tests and build when done.

Agent 3: Last Word Delayed Block Option
Working on ErgoBlock extension at C:\Users[REDACTED]\ergoblock
TASK: Add "Last Word" delayed block option to the block popup
FEATURE: Add a "Last Word" checkbox to the block popup. When enabled:
- Optionally mute the user immediately (controlled by Settings toggle
lastWordMuteEnabled, default ON) - Execute the block after a configurable delay (default 60 seconds)
- Works for both temporary and permanent blocks
CHANGES TO MAKE:
-
In src/types.ts:
- Add interface:
LastWordOptions { enabled: boolean; delaySeconds: number } - Add interface:
DelayedBlockEntry { did: string; handle: string; blockDurationMs: number; executeAt: number; permanent: boolean } - Add to ExtensionOptions:
lastWordMuteEnabled: boolean(default true) - Update DEFAULT_OPTIONS with lastWordMuteEnabled: true
- Add interface:
-
In src/storage.ts:
- Add storage key: PENDING_DELAYED_BLOCKS: 'pendingDelayedBlocks'
- Add functions: getPendingDelayedBlocks(), setPendingDelayedBlocks(entries)
-
In src/components/content/DurationPicker.tsx:
- Add state: lastWordEnabled (boolean), lastWordDelay (number, default 60)
- Add UI section below duration buttons (only visible for actionType === 'block'):
- Checkbox: "Last Word (mute first, block after delay)"
- Number input for delay in seconds (10-3600 range) when checkbox is checked
- Modify onSelect callback to pass lastWordOptions when enabled
- Add CSS styles for the new section
-
In src/content.tsx:
- Modify handleTempBlock() and handlePermanentAction() to accept LastWordOptions
- When Last Word enabled: a. Get lastWordMuteEnabled from options b. If mute enabled, call muteUser(did) immediately c. Send SCHEDULE_DELAYED_BLOCK message to background d. Show toast: "Muted @handle. Block scheduled in Xs" or "Block scheduled in Xs"
-
In src/background.ts:
- Add message handler for 'SCHEDULE_DELAYED_BLOCK'
- Add handleScheduleDelayedBlock(did, handle, delaySeconds, blockDurationMs, permanent):
a. Store pending block in pendingDelayedBlocks storage
b. Create Chrome alarm:
delayed_block_${did}with when: Date.now() + delaySeconds * 1000 - In alarms.onAlarm listener, add handler for delayed_block_* alarms
- Add executeDelayedBlock(did) function: a. Get pending entry from storage b. Get lastWordMuteEnabled from options c. If mute was enabled, unmute the user first d. Execute the block (permanent or temp based on entry) e. Add history entry f. Remove from pending storage
Run tests and build when done.

Agent 4: Move Options to Settings Tab
Working on ErgoBlock extension at C:\Users[REDACTED]\ergoblock
TASK: Move options from right-click menu/options page to a Settings tab in Full Manager
CHANGES TO MAKE:
-
Create NEW FILE src/components/manager/SettingsTab.tsx:
- Create settings UI component modeled after src/options.tsx
- Props: { onReload: () => Promise }
- State: options (ExtensionOptions), loading, saving, status message
- Load options on mount via getOptions()
- Sections:
- Default Duration (defaultDuration, quickBlockDuration dropdowns)
- Notifications (notificationsEnabled checkbox, notificationSound checkbox)
- Expiration Check (checkInterval slider 1-10 minutes)
- Appearance (theme selector: auto/light/dark)
- Post Context (savePostContext checkbox, postContextRetentionDays number)
- Amnesty (forgivenessPeriodDays number)
- Last Word (lastWordMuteEnabled checkbox) - for the new feature
- Save/Reset buttons
- Use existing CSS patterns from other manager tabs
-
In src/components/manager/TabNav.tsx:
- Add to TABS array: { id: 'settings', label: 'Settings' }
-
In src/signals/manager.ts:
- Add 'settings' to TabType union type
-
In src/manager.tsx:
- Import SettingsTab from components
- Add switch case: case 'settings': return
-
In src/components/manager/index.ts (or index.js):
- Export SettingsTab
NOTE: Keep options.html working for now (don't delete it). The Settings tab is an additional way to access settings.
Run tests and build when done.

Agent 5: Add User Search to Repost Filters Tab
Working on ErgoBlock extension at C:\Users[REDACTED]\ergoblock
TASK: Add ability to search and add users by handle in the Repost Filters tab
FEATURE: Currently users can only add repost filters by visiting a profile and clicking the menu. Add the ability to search for users by handle directly in the Repost Filters tab.
CHANGES TO MAKE:
-
In src/components/manager/RepostFiltersTab.tsx:
- Add new state: addHandle (string), adding (boolean), addError (string | null)
- Add "Add User" section above or below the stats header with:
- Text input for handle (placeholder: "Enter handle, e.g. [handle].bsky.social")
- "Add" button with loading state
- Error message display
- Add handleAddUser() function: a. Strip leading @ from input if present b. Check if user already exists in the list (prevent duplicates) c. Send RESOLVE_HANDLE message to background to get profile d. If found, call addRepostFilteredUser() with { did, handle, displayName, avatar, addedAt: Date.now() } e. Reload user list f. Clear input and error on success g. Show error if handle not found or already in list
-
In src/background.ts:
- Add message handler for 'RESOLVE_HANDLE':
if (message.type === 'RESOLVE_HANDLE' && message.handle) { return await handleResolveHandle(message.handle as string); } - Add handleResolveHandle(handle: string) function: a. Get auth token b. Use existing getProfile or resolveHandle API to fetch profile c. Return { success: true, profile: { did, handle, displayName, avatar } } or { success: false, error: 'User not found' }
- Add message handler for 'RESOLVE_HANDLE':
NOTES:
- Use existing storage function: addRepostFilteredUser from storage.ts
- Use existing RepostFilteredUser type from types.ts
- Follow existing UI patterns in the codebase (use block-rel-* CSS classes)
- The input should handle formats like "[handle].bsky.social" or "@[handle].bsky.social"
Run tests and build when done.

we changed the specs while you were working. can you ensure that final product matches these?
Agent 5: Fix Slow "Disable Reposts" Menu
Working on ErgoBlock extension at C:\Users[REDACTED]\ergoblock
TASK: Fix slow "Disable Reposts" menu item appearance
PROBLEM: The "Disable Reposts" menu item is slow to appear on profile pages, especially right after following someone. This is because:
- The code checks a cached follows list (FOLLOWS_HANDLES) that's only synced every 2 hours
- After following someone, the cache is stale, so the menu item doesn't appear until the next sync
SOLUTION: Use getProfiles() (plural) instead of getProfile() (singular). The plural version returns ProfileWithViewer which includes viewer.following - the real-time follow relationship directly from the API.
CHANGES TO MAKE:
-
In src/content.tsx, find the injectRepostFilterOption() function (~line 1005):
Current code (sequential, uses stale cache):
const isFollowed = await isFollowedUser(handle); if (!isFollowed) return; const profile = await getProfile(handle);
Change to (single API call with real-time follow check):
const profiles = await getProfiles([handle]); const profile = profiles[0]; if (!profile?.viewer?.following) return; // Real-time follow check from API Update the import at the top of content.tsx:
Add getProfiles to the imports from './api.js' You may be able to remove getProfile if it's no longer used elsewhere in the file The rest of the function can remain the same - it just needs profile.did, profile.handle, profile.displayName, and profile.avatar which ProfileWithViewer provides.
NOTES:
getProfiles() is already exported from api.ts ProfileWithViewer extends Profile and adds viewer?: ProfileViewerState ProfileViewerState has following?: string (URI of follow record if following) This eliminates the stale cache problem and actually reduces API calls from 2 to 1 Run tests and build when done.
