AI: Restrict getResourceContent to same-origin and block file:// URLs

The getResourceContent tool in the Performance AI agent retrieved V8
trace script contents without verifying the resource URL origin. This
could allow an attacker to use prompt injection (e.g., via trace
events) to read and exfiltrate sensitive cross-origin script source
code, bypassing a previous fix that redacted sourceText from raw trace
events.

To mitigate this, we restrict the tool as follows:
- Block execution of `getResourceContent` entirely if the trace is not fresh (imported).
- For fresh recordings, enforce same-origin validation between the resource URL and the trace origin.
- Block all `file://` URLs for both target resources and trace origins to prevent local file access.

This aligns the security model of `getResourceContent` with `getFunctionCode`.

Chrome DevTools frontend

npm package

The client-side of the Chrome DevTools, including all TypeScript & CSS to run the DevTools webapp.

Source code and documentation

The frontend is available on chromium.googlesource.com. Check out the Chromium DevTools documentation for instructions to set up, use, and maintain a DevTools front-end checkout, as well as design guidelines, and architectural documentation.

Source mirrors

DevTools frontend repository is mirrored on GitHub.

DevTools frontend is also available on NPM as the chrome-devtools-frontend package. It's not currently available via CJS or ES modules, so consuming this package in other tools may require some effort.

The version number of the npm package (e.g. 1.0.373466) refers to the Chromium commit position of latest frontend git commit. It's incremented with every Chromium commit, however the package is updated roughly daily.

Getting in touch

There are a few options to keep an eye on the latest and greatest of DevTools development:
