Updated document and snippet performance expectations

RELEASE-redline.bookcicle.com-dev-20261005-live-performance

Refresh performance documentation from live DEV comparisons and show measured timings separately from buffered expectations.

Documentation

  • Live DEV benchmarks cover native DOCX and PDF comparison through HTML/JSON response rendering, plus HTML, Markdown, plain text and JSON snippets.
  • Measured server timings remain unchanged. Expected processing figures add a labeled 50 ms buffer to measured p50 values.
  • Reports distinguish uploaded and direct inputs, nominal DOCX corpus dimensions, actual PDF page counts, repeated warm requests and concurrent comparisons. Original-page rendering is a separate workload.

Validation

  • Performance figures are published only for qualified comparisons from a complete run with verified temporary-account cleanup. Failed qualification cases are disclosed without timing claims. Regression checks validate report calculations and documentation disclosures.
  • Benchmark requests disable comparison-cache reuse: snippet responses must confirm the bypass, and native document requests omit idempotency keys.

Source pages beside document changes

RELEASE-redline.bookcicle.com-dev-20261005-page-rendering

Review DOCX and PDF comparisons on rendered source pages, with the complete semantic diff available below.

Improved

  • Document comparison screens show one selected source page per side with independent page navigation. The playground starts with page previews off and keeps the option separate for each format.
  • The API adds pageRendering, default false. PDF previews preserve source pages; DOCX previews render source-page layouts. Preview failures preserve the text result.
  • Private page links expire after 15 minutes. Fonts and pagination may differ from Word; repeated text and unmapped changes remain accessible in the complete semantic comparison.

Validation and documentation

  • Added page-preview smoke lanes for direct and uploaded DOCX/PDF requests, omitted/false/true options, PDF byte preservation and private retrieval.
  • Published fresh uncached DEV timings for snippets, native documents and optional page preparation. Raw observations stay unchanged; planning expectations add a labeled 50 ms buffer.
  • Shortened API and engineering guides, folded long examples, and corrected the native JSON, Word export and request-signing explanations.

Smooth page zoom and accurate highlights

RELEASE-redline.bookcicle.com-dev-20261005-page-interactions

Zoom and fit keep the page visible, and document changes align with complete words.

Fixed

  • Zoom and fit respond immediately while a sharper page image loads. Rapid navigation keeps the latest selected page.
  • DOCX page previews preserve text for combined letters such as ff and ffi, fixing missing address and phone highlights. Page drawing and pagination stay the same.
  • Highlights preserve paragraph boundaries and use surrounding text to distinguish a changed phone number from an unchanged footer.
  • Large documents find changes in the background while the selected page remains usable. Highlight counts describe mapped areas; the complete text diff remains available.

Improved

  • Pricing removes review-mode callouts and lists accept/reject completion webhooks in Creator Pro.

Simpler page-rendering performance docs

RELEASE-redline.bookcicle.com-dev-20261005-concise-page-docs

Keep page-preparation expectations in the main performance table.

Improved

  • Removed the duplicate page-rendering timing block and renderer implementation names from the main docs. The Page Rendering column and API behavior are unchanged.
  • Operational limits use a compact accessible table with the same input, upload, billing, timeout and ZIP safeguards.
  • Clarified that page previews are read-only: Accept/Reject uses the HTML review viewer, and DOCX tracked revisions can be reviewed in Word.

Separate comparison and page rendering times

RELEASE-redline.bookcicle.com-dev-20261005-document-timing

See how much time document comparison and optional page preparation each take.

Improved

  • Document timing displays comparison and page rendering separately. Request overhead uses the full server total.
  • With metrics enabled, the API adds comparisonMs and pageRenderingMs. Failed page preparation is measured too; totalMs and diffMs keep their existing meanings.
  • Smoke checks verify the timing split for direct and uploaded DOCX/PDF comparisons, with pages enabled and disabled.

Responsive page loading and clearer performance estimates

RELEASE-redline.bookcicle.com-dev-20261005-background-pages

Page changes load with a shimmer while controls stay usable. Performance docs separate comparison and optional page preparation.

Improved

  • Document-wide change matching runs in a background worker. Page drawing, text layout and highlight placement yield between cancellable batches.
  • Page navigation shows a loading shimmer, preserves the visible page and commits only the latest selection. Reduced-motion preferences are respected.
  • Performance tables show expected processing times with a separate optional Page Rendering column. Snippet formats show N/A; raw benchmark evidence remains available.

Redline Review Mode Hardening, Origin Verification, and Comparison-Wide Replay

RELEASE-ui-deploy-20261005-redline-review-hardening

Hardened Redline review mode entitlements, postMessage bridge origin validation, fail-closed HMAC webhook signatures, unified layout locking, and comparison-wide decision replaying across virtualized chunks.

Security

  • Removed embed-class plan bypass in review mode authorization in favor of comparison owner manifest plan and account tier validation.
  • Added strict postMessage source and origin validation to prevent unauthorized windows from mutating review state.
  • Defaulted SDK embed origin to the official Redline service origin with strict message origin checking.
  • Hardened HMAC-SHA256 signature computation and automated webhook dispatching to fail closed on missing secret or signing errors.
  • Validated 64-character hex digest length before timingSafeEqual buffer comparison in the webhook verification receiver.

Improved

  • Locked viewer layout in Unified mode while Review Mode is active to prevent split pane desynchronization.
  • Preserved canonical artifact change IDs (e.g. mkt-*, h-chg-*) across chunk annotation and manifest generation.
  • Added comparison-wide decision tracking and automatic decision replay when virtualized chunks are mounted into slots.
  • Filtered out nested change groups during review session initialization to align with top-level action bars.
  • Assembled clean resolvedHtml exports without presentation wrappers, unchanged region toggles, or unmounted placeholders.
  • Accurately represented partial review completion with remaining unresolved change counts and matching webhook event types.

Redline Review Mode Empty Bullet Pruning and Floating Completion Action

RELEASE-ui-deploy-20261005-redline-bullet-pruning-floating-finish

Prunes empty list items and block elements left by rejected insertions or accepted deletions, locks out Split mode during active review, and presents a floating Finish Review prompt when all changes are resolved one-by-one.

Fixed

  • Prunes empty list items (li) and parent lists (ul, ol) when an inserted bullet is rejected or deleted bullet is accepted, eliminating dangling bullet markers in rendered documents.
  • Prunes effectively empty block containers (p, blockquote, headings) when resolving block-level revisions without leaving unsightly blank lines.
  • Strictly disables Split view buttons and blocks layout switching via postMessage during active review to maintain inline action bar alignment and DOM synchronization.

Improved

  • Hides bulk Accept All and Reject All options once all changes have been resolved one-by-one, leaving Finish Review as the single actionable choice.
  • Displays a floating Finish Review confirmation prompt in the bottom-right corner when all changes are reviewed, ensuring users never miss completing the review.
  • Supported redline:resolveChange postMessage bridge event in addition to individual accept/reject change commands.

Validation

  • Unit tests in reviewEngine.test.js and redlineAccept.test.js covering empty bullet and container pruning across single bullets, isolated paragraphs, and full list cleanup.
  • Playwright E2E coverage in redline-review-callbacks.spec.mjs asserting bullet removal, split view locking, and floating finish completion interaction.

Redline Interactive Track Changes Review Mode, Callbacks, and Drop-in SDK

RELEASE-ui-deploy-20261005-redline-review-callbacks

Introduced interactive track changes review mode with in-place DOM accept and reject actions, bidirectional postMessage event bridge, drop-in SDK, and HMAC-SHA256 signed webhooks tiered for Creator and Creator Pro plans.

Added

  • Creator Plan: Interactive review mode in Redline viewer and embed iframes with top progress toolbar (changes remaining, bulk accept/reject, finish review) and inline Accept/Reject buttons for every tracked change.
  • Creator Plan: Standard bidirectional postMessage event protocol (redline:changeResolved, redline:reviewComplete, redline:startReview, redline:acceptChange, redline:rejectChange, redline:acceptAll, redline:rejectAll, redline:requestState).
  • Creator Plan: Drop-in Redline Embed SDK (/scripts/v1/redline.js) with clean initialization, lifecycle event handlers, and imperative review controls.
  • Creator Pro Plan: Server-side automated document commit callbacks and signed HMAC-SHA256 webhooks (X-Redline-Signature, X-Redline-Event) upon review completion.
  • Interactive configurator workbench live callback event console and updated documentation for SDK and Webhooks integration.

Improved

  • Updated Redline pricing matrix detailing Creator and Creator Pro interactive review and webhook callback tiers.

Redline Iframe Review Demo, Deeper Playground Controls, and Pricing Card Notes

RELEASE-ui-deploy-20261005-redline-review-demos-and-pricing

Configured Showcase 1 on the hosted iframe demo page as a dedicated interactive review demo, added review mode presets and controls to the deeper playground workbench, and added explicit tier notes to the pricing cards.

Added

  • Configured Showcase 1 on /iframe-demos as a dedicated interactive Track Changes Review demo with live toolbar toggle, review parameter initialization, and isolation from standard comparison showcases.
  • Added global review controls (Start Review, Accept All, Reject All) to the sticky Master Playground bar for simultaneous multi-pane testing.
  • Added a 1-click 'Try Review Mode Preset' button to the developer configurator workbench to quickly initialize review mode and inspect callbacks.
  • Added explicit review tier notes inside each pricing card clarifying interactive review for Creator and signed HMAC webhooks for Creator Pro.

Improved

  • Supported bidirectional redline:exitReview postMessage command to dynamically close review mode inside embedded iframes.
  • Updated iframe embed copy snippets to reflect review demo configurations.

Readable PDF bullets and word changes

RELEASE-redline.bookcicle.com-dev-20261005-pdf-word-fixes

Document word comparisons keep changed words together, and PDF symbol-font bullets render as standard bullets.

Fixed

  • Word and auto modes keep DOCX and PDF word replacements intact instead of refining them into scattered character edits.
  • Known OpenSymbol PDF bullets decode to standard Unicode bullets in both native and fallback extraction. Unrelated fonts and private-use characters are preserved.
  • Updated comparison replay identities prevent old results from standing in for the corrected behavior.

Validation

  • Source reconstruction, HTML/JSON responses, font-scoped symbol decoding and document regression tests pass. Both supplied résumé PDFs retain all 19 bullets per document.
