Cache API silently strips URL fragments, causing chunk overwrites in model storage

·26 views

A developer discovered that their highest-quality AI model tier had never successfully loaded in production due to a subtle Cache API behavior: URL fragments are stripped during both put and match operations. This meant chunk keys like 'key#0' and 'key#7' were treated as the same cache entry, so each new chunk write overwrote the previous one, leaving only the last-written manifest blob. When the app read the cache, it retrieved the tiny JSON manifest instead of the model and passed it to ONNX Runtime, which correctly rejected it as an invalid protobuf. The fix involved switching from fragment-based keys to path-segment keys and adding a magic-byte plus size-floor validation before passing cached bytes to any parser.

Chrome and partners release Modern Web Guidance 1.0 to steer coding agents toward native browser APIs

Chrome, in collaboration with Firefox, MDN, and Edge, has released version 1.0 of Modern Web Guidance, a set of over 200 open-source implementation guides for coding agents. The guides cover native browser features such as CSS highlights, dialog backdrops, and field-sizing, which agents often overlook in favor of older JavaScript patterns. The project is packaged as an agent skill and a search CLI designed to keep context usage small, and it includes a legacy-scan tool that flags outdated code patterns. According to the developers, internal evaluations showed agents passing 92% of about 1,700 assertions with the guidance, compared with 55% without it.
