tools/ime-test/index.html is a single-page input+textarea harness with an on-page log timestamping focus/selection/input/composition events, paint latency, long-tasks, and main-thread blocks — the instrumentation used to pin the erase / caret-jump / first-letter-freeze bugs and what we'll use to profile the magnifier. README documents serving it (python http.server on 8765, 10.0.2.2 for emulator / adb reverse for USB) and opening it as an embedded tab via the in-app browser address bar. Plan gets a matching "How to test" section. Dev tool only — nothing under tools/ ships, so the [ImeDiag] strings stay out of src/. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

IME / text-selection test harness
A single-file web page (index.html) for exercising and profiling the embedded
WebView IME + text-selection relay (see
amethyst/plans/2026-06-25-embed-text-selection-native-parity.md). It has a
plain <input> and a <textarea> plus an on-page green log that records, with
millisecond timestamps:
- focus/blur,
selectionchange,keydown/beforeinput/input, composition events, and the resultingvalue/selection — to catch erase, caret-jump, and focus-transfer regressions; - paint latency (
requestAnimationFrameafter each DOM change) — the metric that exposed the first-letter freeze; - long-task + main-thread-block detectors and a focus/selection heartbeat — to catch anything stalling the WebView main thread or spontaneously moving focus/selection.
The log lines are tagged [ImeDiag] and also go to console.log, so they show
up in adb logcat (the :napplet process owns the WebView console). Nothing
here ships in the app — it's a dev tool, which is why the [ImeDiag] strings
live only under tools/.
Run it
-
Serve this directory over HTTP from your dev machine:
cd tools/ime-test && python3 -m http.server 8765 -
Reach it from the device/emulator:
- Emulator: the page is at
http://10.0.2.2:8765(10.0.2.2is the emulator's alias for the host loopback). - Physical device (USB):
adb reverse tcp:8765 tcp:8765, then the page is athttp://localhost:8765.
- Emulator: the page is at
-
Open that URL as an embedded tab (this is the path that uses the relay — not a full-screen activity):
- Open the in-app browser (
BrowserScreen) and type the URL into its address bar. The embedded browser handleshttp/https, so it loads into the:nappletSurfaceControlViewHost surface.
To compare against native behavior, open the same URL in a full-screen activity (where the WebView renders in-window with the native keyboard) — that is also how you reproduce the full-screen round-trip highlight bug (open full-screen,
back, then selection highlight is dead across all embeds). - Open the in-app browser (
