+  source: Layer 2 RED — Extended Tier-1 gate after C-config fix
+  finding: |
+    With the C-config fix landed (commit 52c7636) and chrome.* mock
+    in place (commit 74400ae), the SW BUNDLE loads cleanly. To verify
+    the ts-ebml RUNTIME code path is also reachable, an extended Layer 2
+    was added to the Tier-1 gate: it dynamic-imports the SOURCE
+    `src/background/webm-remux.ts` under SW-simulated globals and
+    invokes `remuxSegments` with a synthetic 1-segment input.
+
+    Layer 2 went RED with a clean ReferenceError:
+
+      ReferenceError: Buffer is not defined
+        at new EBMLDecoder (node_modules/ts-ebml/lib/EBMLDecoder.js:38:24)
+        at extractFramesFromSegment (src/background/webm-remux.ts:250:19)
+        at Module.remuxSegments (src/background/webm-remux.ts:343:24)
+
+    Line 38 of EBMLDecoder.js: `this._buffer = Buffer.alloc(0);` —
+    invoked from EVERY call to extractFramesFromSegment, i.e. once per
+    input segment. The real SW would have crashed on every SAVE_ARCHIVE
+    click. This is exactly the class of bug Layer 1 (module-init only)
+    cannot catch: the Buffer ReferenceError is unreachable at module
+    init because EBMLDecoder is only constructed when remuxSegments
+    is invoked from the SAVE_ARCHIVE handler, which never happens at
+    module evaluation.
+
+    Cross-referenced legokichi/ts-ebml#37 ("Can't use Buffer in

+  finding: |
+    Installed `vite-plugin-node-polyfills@0.27.0` as devDependency and
+    added the plugin to vite.config.ts with the canonical narrow config
+    from the plugin's official docs:
+
+      nodePolyfills({
+        include: ['buffer'],
+        globals: { Buffer: true, global: false, process: false },
+        protocolImports: false,
+      }),
+
+    Build outcome: SW chunk 373.05 kB (-0.49 kB vs C-config-only,
+    -1.15 kB vs original baseline). A new shared chunk
+    `index-CgqXENQe.js` (27.48 kB) holds the buffer polyfill (base64-js
+    + the buffer module); imported by both the SW bundle and the
+    offscreen bundle. Net total bundle delta: +26.3 kB for full Buffer
+    support — well under the "polyfill must not pull in all of Node's
+    stdlib" red line (<50 KB).
+
+    Bundle verification: the bundled EBMLDecoder constructor now reads
+    `this._buffer = me.alloc(0)` where `me` is the imported polyfill
+    Buffer alias (was `Buffer.alloc(0)` against undefined
+    globalThis.Buffer). Same import-rewrite applied to all 3
+    Buffer.alloc/Buffer.concat/Buffer.from sites in the ts-ebml call
+    path. The bundle does NOT depend on globalThis.Buffer; Layer 1 of
+    the gate still strips Buffer from globalThis and passes, confirming
+    the polyfill provides Buffer as a scope-level import binding rather
+    than a global assignment.
+
+    Tier-1 gate: 2/2 GREEN (Layer 1 + Layer 2). The Layer 2 RED above
+    flipped to GREEN immediately after the polyfill plugin landed
+    (with the corresponding adjustment to Layer 2's strip list, which
+    now leaves Buffer available to mirror what the polyfilled bundle
+    provides at SW runtime — see test file header comment for the full
+    polyfill-semantics rationale).
+
+    Full vitest: 62 passing, 2 failing. The 2 failures remain the
+    pre-existing fixture-dependent webm-playback duration tests (Plan
+    01-08 Task 5's empirical responsibility). Zero regressions from

+  TWO INDEPENDENT defects in the same code path, surfaced sequentially
+  as fixes for each peeled back the next:
+
+  (1) Bundler-config defect (the SW INIT crash):
+      Vite/Rollup default CJS-interop pipeline tree-shook the `ebml`
+      package out of the SW bundle while leaving a dangling destructure
+      reference in bundled ts-ebml/lib/tools.js. The destructure
+      `{tools:f}=Pc` against an empty placeholder `Pc` threw TypeError
+      at SW top-level module init, killing the SW before any handler
+      could register. Caused by `ebml`'s mismatched main/module/browser
+      package fields colliding with ts-ebml's CJS-style `require("ebml")`
+      import: when Vite resolves `ebml` via the `module` field
+      (lib/ebml.esm.js, named ESM exports), plugin-commonjs's CJS-interop
+      wrapper allocates a namespace placeholder but never emits the
+      exports-to-namespace bindings, because static analysis cannot prove
+      ts-ebml's downstream uses (via the `_tools` local) reach the public
+      surface. The body of ebml.esm.js then tree-shakes entirely.
+
+  (2) Runtime-Buffer defect (the SAVE_ARCHIVE crash):
+      ts-ebml's EBMLDecoder constructor (line 38 of EBMLDecoder.js)
+      calls `this._buffer = Buffer.alloc(0)`. The MV3 Service Worker
+      runtime has no `Buffer` global (Buffer is a Node API, not a
+      browser one). This code is unreachable at SW init — EBMLDecoder
+      is only constructed when `remuxSegments` is invoked, which only
+      happens inside the SAVE_ARCHIVE message handler — so the bundler-
+      config fix above masked it. Once C-config landed and the SW
+      could init, every single SAVE_ARCHIVE click would have crashed
+      the SW with `ReferenceError: Buffer is not defined`. ts-ebml
+      acknowledges this incompatibility (legokichi/ts-ebml#37, open
+      since 2021-10, no maintainer fix).
+
+  Both defects together explain the operator's "errored, and i can't
+  even see the SW console" symptom: the init crash was the visible
+  one; the runtime crash would have been the second visible one had
+  the fix landing stopped after iteration 1.

 fix: |
-  Two-part landing:
+  Three-part landing, two iterations:
 
-  (1) vite.config.ts (commit 52c7636) — add
-      `resolve.alias: { ebml: 'ebml/lib/ebml.js' }`, forcing Vite to
-      resolve `require("ebml")` to the package's CJS main entry. The
-      CJS variant uses `exports.tools = Tools; exports.Decoder = ...;`
-      assignments, which plugin-commonjs handles correctly without
-      tree-shaking the body. Bundle now contains all 4 expected ebml
-      namespace assignments (`hr.tools=`, `hr.schema=`, `hr.Decoder=`,
-      `hr.Encoder=`), and the destructure `{tools:i}=hr` correctly
-      binds at module init.
+  Iteration 1 (commits 52c7636 + 74400ae, archived in cc6e81a):

+       `hr.Encoder=`), and the destructure `{tools:i}=hr` correctly
+       binds at module init.
+
+  (1b) tests/background/sw-bundle-import.test.ts (commit 74400ae) —
+       complete the Tier-1 Layer 1 gate authored in c75854c by mocking
+       the `chrome.*` surface inside the spawned Node child. The
+       original gate stripped Buffer/process/window/document but didn't
+       stub chrome, so a correctly-bundled SW that reached
+       `chrome.runtime.onMessage.addListener(...)` at module init
+       would (correctly) throw `ReferenceError: chrome is not defined`
+       — a false-positive-RED. The mock is a recursive Proxy returning
+       callable no-ops for any `chrome.<api>.<method>(...)` chain.
+
+  Iteration 2 (commits dd7bf00 + 761dfc0, this archive commit):
+
+  (2a) Extended Layer 2 of the Tier-1 gate
+       (tests/background/sw-bundle-import.test.ts, commit 761dfc0):
+       a second test in the same spec dynamic-imports the SOURCE
+       `webm-remux.ts` under SW-simulated globals and invokes
+       `remuxSegments` against a synthetic single-segment EBML
+       payload. Classifies outcomes as `ok` (returned a Blob),
+       `domain_error` (parse failure on synthetic input — runtime
+       path is structurally reachable), or `sw_incompat` (Buffer/
+       process ReferenceError, EvalError, CSP unsafe-eval). The
+       latter is the failure mode that would crash the real SW
+       mid-archive in Chrome — exactly the kind of bug Layer 1
+       (module-init only) cannot catch. Caught the ts-ebml Buffer
+       issue empirically and made it actionable.
+
+  (2b) vite.config.ts (commit dd7bf00) — install
+       `vite-plugin-node-polyfills@0.27.0` and add the plugin with
+       the canonical narrow config from the plugin's official docs:
+       `include: ['buffer']`, `globals.Buffer: true`,
+       `globals.global: false`, `globals.process: false`,
+       `protocolImports: false` (Buffer only, no Node stdlib
+       pull-in). The plugin rewrites every `Buffer` reference in
+       the bundle into an import of an exported `Buffer` from a
+       shared polyfill chunk; the bundle does NOT depend on
+       globalThis.Buffer (Layer 1 of the gate still strips Buffer
+       and passes, confirming this).
+
+       Layer 2's strip list was simultaneously split: Layer 1 keeps
+       Buffer stripped (the bundle must not depend on globalThis.
+       Buffer); Layer 2 leaves Buffer available (the polyfill is a
+       bundler-level rewrite and doesn't apply when source is loaded
+       outside Vite — leaving Buffer mirrors what the polyfilled
+       bundle actually provides at SW runtime).
+
+  Bundle size delta (cumulative): SW chunk 373.05 kB (was 374.20
+  baseline → 373.54 after iteration 1 → 373.05 after iteration 2).
+  New 27.48 kB shared polyfill chunk (`index-CgqXENQe.js`) used by
+  both the SW and offscreen bundles. Net total cost ~26.3 kB for
+  full Buffer support — within the "polyfill must not pull in all
+  of Node's stdlib" budget (<50 kB).
+
+  The resolve.alias fix from iteration 1 is preserved — the polyfill
+  addresses an orthogonal runtime concern (Buffer at remux-time) vs
+  the bundler-interop concern the alias addresses (ebml CJS-interop
+  at init-time).
