""" WalkthroughThe changes introduce a centralized utility function to transform the user agent string, replacing manual scrubbing logic in multiple locations. User agent modification is now consistently handled via this function, and a webRequest interceptor applies the transformation to outgoing requests. The relevant feature flag is enabled by default, and some legacy header logic is removed. Changes

🧹 Nitpick comments (6)
src/main/modules/flags.ts (1)
17-18: Improve documentation for the SCRUBBED_USER_AGENT flagThe current comment "Transform the user agent" is overly simplified and loses important context. Based on the PR objectives, this flag addresses specific issues with websites flagging the Electron user agent as insecure or blocking access.
Consider enhancing the comment to include more context about why this transformation is needed:
- // Transform the user agent + // Transform the user agent to remove Electron-specific identifiers + // which can cause compatibility issues with services like Google and + // Cloudflare Turnstile that may flag Electron as insecure SCRUBBED_USER_AGENT: true,src/main/browser/utility/user-agent.ts (3)
4-4: Hardcoded Edge version might require frequent updatesThe Edge user agent version is hardcoded, which will need manual updates when new Edge versions are released.
Consider making this configurable or dynamically generated to avoid the need for frequent code changes:
-const EDGE_USER_AGENT = "Edg/136.0.3240.76"; +// Use a configuration file or environment variable for easier updates +const EDGE_USER_AGENT = process.env.EDGE_USER_AGENT || "Edg/136.0.3240.76";
11-13: Add comments explaining transformation strategy decisionsThe transformation strategy uses three boolean flags without explaining why these specific transformations were chosen or what they accomplish.
Add descriptive comments to explain the purpose of each flag:
- const addEdgeUserAgent = true; - const removeElectronUserAgent = true; - const removeAppUserAgent = false; + // Add Edge browser identifier to improve compatibility with websites that validate browser type + const addEdgeUserAgent = true; + // Remove Electron identifier which can trigger security warnings on some websites + const removeElectronUserAgent = true; + // Preserve the app identifier to maintain brand identity in requests + const removeAppUserAgent = false;
15-19: Clean up or implement the commented-out URL-specific logicThere's commented-out code for URL-specific transformations that suggests incomplete implementation.
Either implement this feature if needed for specific sites like Google accounts, or remove the commented code to avoid confusion:
- if (url) { - // const hostname = url.hostname.toLowerCase(); - // if (hostname === "accounts.google.com") { - // } - } + // URL-specific transformations can be added here if needed in the future + // Example: if (url?.hostname.toLowerCase() === "accounts.google.com") { ... }src/main/browser/utility/intercept-rules.ts (2)
15-15: Replace deprecated URL.parse with WHATWG URL APIThe
URL.parse()method is deprecated in newer Node.js versions. Consider using the WHATWG URL API instead.- const url = URL.parse(details.url); + const url = new URL(details.url);
121-123: Recommend adding priority comment for user agent transformationThe transformer setup is now listed first in the intercept rules, but there's no explanation for this ordering.
Add a comment explaining the priority of this transformation:
- // Transform the User-Agent header + // Transform the User-Agent header first to ensure all outgoing requests + // use the modified user agent, addressing compatibility issues with services + // like Google and Cloudflare Turnstile setupUserAgentTransformer(session);

123-128: Good refactoring of user agent transformation logicThe user agent transformation logic has been properly refactored to use the centralized utility function, improving maintainability and consistency across the application.
src/main/browser/utility/intercept-rules.ts (1)
9-36: Implement dynamic user agent transformation for all requestsThe new function effectively intercepts and transforms user agent headers for all outgoing requests, ensuring consistent behavior throughout the application.
