Lets a same-origin page embed VectorCraft in an <iframe> and act as its file system, matching the bridges in gridcraft-web, cadcraft-web and wordcraft-web.

With ?host=parent and a same-origin parent window:

• the page posts vectorcraft:ready {version} once it listens;
• vectorcraft:open {name, bytes} (ArrayBuffer or Uint8Array) opens the file like File > Open or a drop;
• every file that would be downloaded (Save, Save As, exports) is posted as vectorcraft:save {name, bytes} with the buffer transferred; a native Save counts as saved once posted;
• vectorcraft:dirty {dirty} reports unsaved changes appearing or going away;
• vectorcraft:failed {error} reports a failed start.

Messages from other windows or origins are ignored. Without ?host=parent nothing changes. window.vectorcraft.captureDownloads still takes precedence.

Checked with cargo check --target wasm32-unknown-unknown and a release trunk build.

Summary by CodeRabbit

• New Features
  • VectorCraft can communicate with a same-origin parent page when embedded with ?host=parent, or with an explicitly allowed parent origin using ?host_origin=.
  • Parent pages can open documents in the editor and receive saved files instead of triggering browser downloads.
  • The app reports when it is ready, startup or document-opening errors, and changes to a document’s unsaved state.
  • Saves awaiting parent confirmation remain marked as unsaved; if not confirmed within 30 seconds, they are reported as failures.
  • Documents larger than 512 MiB cannot be opened through the parent-page integration.

Walkthrough

Adds an optional iframe host bridge enabled with ?host=parent. The parent can open documents and receive readiness, failure, save, and dirty-state messages. The bridge validates origins and limits incoming documents to 512 MiB.

Changes: Parent host bridge

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Origin and save acknowledgement state apps/vectorcraft-web/src/bridge.rs	Selects and canonicalizes an eligible parent origin. Tracks pending save acknowledgements, expiration, and session dirty state.
Bridge messages and document handling apps/vectorcraft-web/src/host.rs, apps/vectorcraft-web/src/host_open.rs	Validates parent messages, routes supported documents to the inbox, and rejects documents larger than 512 MiB. Delivers saves to the parent and reports readiness, failures, and dirty-state changes.
Web app bridge lifecycle apps/vectorcraft-web/src/web.rs, apps/vectorcraft-web/src/main.rs, apps/vectorcraft-web/Cargo.toml	Installs and starts the bridge for eligible host pages. Reports initial startup results and routes downloads through the bridge when available. Adds module declarations, iframe integration documentation, and the MessageEvent web-sys feature.

Merge Risk: Minimal · previous review d79b8

No verified merge-blocking risk remains in the current change.

Security architecture risk: Moderate · up to d79b8

Parent messages are restricted by origin and window identity. However, host confirmation is disconnected from the document’s saved state and recovery cleanup. A failed host save can lose recovery protection, and confirmation of another document can clear its failure indication.

Retained concerns

• Medium · reliability · inferred: Host confirmation does not govern the actual document save and recovery lifecycle. A successful post returns through the existing save callback, marks that document saved, and removes its recovery copy before the parent confirms persistence. Timeout only sets a bridge-wide unconfirmed flag; confirming any later document save clears that flag. Consequently, after document A remains unpersisted and times out, a successful save of document B can produce dirty=false while A still lacks confirmed persistence and its previous recovery copy. This weakens failure containment across independently saved documents.

Security review details

Security Blast Radius

• observed — The selected parent receives files routed through host delivery and can submit files to the app’s ordinary importer. That importer is broader than document loading: filename dispatch also reaches presets, libraries, scripts, and WebAssembly plugin installation. Save recovery uses storage on the application’s browser origin.

Security Findings and Attack Paths

• inferred — The supported failure path concerns document integrity rather than an established origin bypass: a parent can fail to persist a successfully posted document after local save completion has removed recovery protection. A later confirmation for another document can clear the aggregate failure indication.

Trust Boundaries and Controls

• observed — The same-origin parent is accepted directly; otherwise host_origin selects an exact HTTP(S) origin. This is URL-configured trust delegation, not an independently maintained host allowlist. Source-window checks prevent a different window on that origin from impersonating the parent, and outgoing saves target that same parent and origin.
• observed — The non-document plugin route inspects modules and requests confirmation for heavy-budget plugins; other valid modules proceed to installation. Browser filesystem-path installation is rejected. Whether installation persists beyond the iframe and what runtime authority it grants were not established by the inspected source.

Resilience and Maintainability Implications

• observed — Timeout processing removes pending requests, reports their IDs as failed, and retains aggregate dirtiness. It does not restore the document’s saved-state marker or recovery copy. This separates transport failure handling from the existing document recovery lifecycle.

[bflatastic]

Thanks @halldave. An embedding bridge for host pages is an integration decision for the project owner, and #1094 (an opt-in ?host=parent bridge for the web build) is already waiting on that call, so I'm holding this one with it rather than landing it in the parity batches. If it goes ahead, one thing to add: a cap on the size of vectorcraft:open bytes before they're copied into the inbox, as the other import paths cap what they read.

[halldave]

Thanks for the review, and for pointing at the import caps.

I've added the cap: vectorcraft:open now checks the length of bytes before anything is copied
into the open inbox. Over MAX_OPEN_BYTES (512 MB, the same limit the engine puts on a library
file it reads, and the largest raster the web build allocates) the document isn't opened, and the
bridge posts vectorcraft:failed { error } with the name, the size and the limit. The check is a
small pure function (host_open.rs) with a unit test.

Happy for this to wait on the owner's call. If #1094's opt-in ?host=parent design is preferred,
please fold this in there (or close this PR); the cap and the save/dirty messages carry over as is.

🗄️ Data Integrity & Integration | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Report the missing-canvas failure through the parent bridge.

With ?host=parent, the missing-canvas return runs before Bridge::new().install(). The parent receives neither vectorcraft:ready nor vectorcraft:failed, so it can remain waiting without a startup result.

cargo xtask ci is incomplete or unchecked on this PR. Run it end to end (fmt, clippy, tests, assets, brands, layers, wasm), tick the checklist when green, and reply here with the outcome. That is required before any approve from here.

[helenkwok]

@halldave a note for after this merges, not a competing change: GridCraft and PdfCraft have a small follow-up under review that lets a page host the app in its own document, without an iframe (storytold/gridcraft#2593, storytold/pdfcraft#4732). data-host="page" on the app's canvas opts in, and the same ready/open/save/dirty/failed messages travel as non-bubbling CustomEvents on the canvas instead of postMessage; ?host=parent is unchanged. The bridge holds a small Transport (Parent or Page) with one send, so the second transport is a short change on top of a bridge like this one.

Once this lands I'm happy to send that as a follow-up PR for VectorCraft, unless you'd rather add it here. I won't open anything until then.

[bflatastic]

Thanks @halldave. This defines part of the API a page uses to host a craft app in the browser, and the same hook is meant for PhotoCraft (and later the other apps). That contract should be designed once for the whole family, ideally as a shared crate in storytold/craft-libs that each app's web shell calls, so the apps can't drift apart. I'm holding it for the project owner to decide that shape, rather than landing an app-specific version first. Related: #4112 (window.craftStorage) and #4091 (host-supplied fonts).

[halldave]

@Messhias (the CI outcome)

cargo xtask ci, run end to end on the branch head (448fee4):

• fmt
• clippy (-D warnings)
• tests
• no-bundled-fonts, pdf-deps
• assets
• brands
• cursors
• layers
• wasm: all 23 crates pass cargo check --target wasm32-unknown-unknown with rustup's stable 1.99.0. Inside the same cargo xtask ci run this step failed only because my Homebrew 1.99.0 has no wasm32 std (E0463), so I re-ran cargo xtask wasm on rustup's toolchain.

@bflatastic

Understood. This stays on hold until the project owner decides the shape, alongside #1094 (and the craft-libs question). In case it's useful for that decision, the branch now addresses both review points: the open cap (eb747b2), and 02f5baf, which installs the bridge only for a same-origin parent or an explicit ?host_origin=, makes saves wait for vectorcraft:saved { id } (otherwise vectorcraft:failed after 30 s, document stays dirty), and reports a missing canvas through the bridge. If a shared crate in craft-libs is preferred, I'm happy to move this there or close this PR.

@helenkwok

Yes please. Send the page-host transport as a follow-up once this merges. Thanks for waiting.

CodeRabbit threads

• Host mode doesn't check the parent is same-origin (security review, retained concern): fixed in 02f5baf (same-origin or ?host_origin= only, and saves are confirmed by id).
• Report the missing-canvas failure through the parent bridge (web.rs:84-91): fixed in 02f5baf. The bridge is installed before the canvas lookup, and a missing canvas posts vectorcraft:failed.

Merged main (2404940). The branch had been cut from the unmerged 0.14.0 release branch, so the merge keeps main and re-applies only this PR's apps/vectorcraft-web changes. I also added the same host_origin canonicalisation and tests as storytold/wordcraft#4490 (5ff18ef): the allowed origin is stored the way browsers serialise it, and forms a browser would write differently are refused.

Every cargo xtask ci step passes locally (fmt, clippy, tests, doctests, no-bundled-fonts, pdf-deps, assets, brands, cursors, i18n-report, layers); the wasm step passes with the rustup toolchain.
