MV3
Improved script installation to not download the script content in parallel anymore
Note: you can restore the old behavior, by changing Userscript URL detection to Legacy
Known Issues
GM_webRequest is not (yet) supported in Manifest V3
GM_xmlhttpRequest fires only one progress event (you can use responseType stream for now)
In UserScript API Dynamic mode scripts that are using a RegExp @require cause overhead by being injected into every frame
Script installation is kind of clumsy because the script content is downloaded in parallel
5.1.6194
2024-03-27
General
Introduced a permission editor for enhanced management of host permissions
Updated GM_download to make the name parameter optional and implemented extraction from the response headers
Removed use of deprecated DOMNodeInserted and MutationEvent events
Fixed an issue with the url property of GM_notification when no onclick listener is set
Updated GM_download to initiate downloads in parallel again

Enhanced detection of new GreasyFork script URLs
Introduced id parameter in GM_registerMenuCommand to update existing commands
Added tag in GM_notification to overwrite existing notifications
Incorporated url property in GM_notification to open a new tab on click (can be cancelled by onClick event via preventDefault)
Notifications now automatically close when the userscript unloads and neither a url nor a tag was specified
Adjusted GM_download to prevent frequent triggering of onload
Refined version number parser to support ISO format dates
Note: As a result of this change, 1.0-0.3 is now considered a lower version number than 1.0
Overhauled aspects related to Instant Navigation
Accepted user-defined globals in ESLint configuration
Enhanced sandbox window addEventListener to support EventListenerObjects
Introduced a title option to GM_registerMenuCommand
Introduced feature to append script version number during disk save operations
Content-security-policy (CSP) directives are no longer relaxed by default
Notes:
  • In Chrome, script injection should function as usual, but some userscripts may depend on a relaxed CSP
  • In Firefox, if the page CSP blocks injection, userscripts are now injected into a JavaScript-mode @sandbox, which may require cloneInto and friends for unsafeWindow property modification
  • The previous behavior can be reinstated by setting 'Modify existing content security policy (CSP) headers' to 'Yes'
  • This change aids in better adherence to the Mozilla add-on development policies
Locally modified scripts are not automatically updated, but can now be manually updated and confirmed for reversion
Introduced an option in GM_registerMenuCommand to prevent automatic closing of the popup on click
Corrected GM_xmlhttpRequest FormData key-value order
Adjusted ESLint to permit top-level await
Resolved BSD issue caused by incorrect getPlatformInfo response

Add GM_xmlhttpRequestsupload.onprogress support
Add .webp to the download whitelist
Add some more editor shortcuts
Experimental @sandbox support with possible values 'raw', 'JavaScript' and 'DOM'
  • 'raw' access means that a script for compatibility reasons always needs to run in page context. At the moment this mode is the default if @sandbox is omitted.
  • 'JavaScript' access mode means that this script needs unsafeWindow access. At Firefox a special context is created which should also bypass all remaining CSP issues. Execution in page context is used as fallback at other browsers.
  • 'DOM' access mode means that the script only needs DOM and no direct unsafeWindow access. If enabled these scripts are executed inside the extension context or at any other enabled context otherwise.
Add an option to configure available sandbox modes
Warning: Any option that enables 'DOM' mode is potentially unsecure. Userscripts that run in extension context have almost full extension permissions and can even modify and install new userscripts.
Remove document.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', ...) delayed event dispatching for document-start scripts executed later than the event
Remove toSource object prototype compat option
Fix issues with heavily increased page loading time caused by some scripts or @requires

4.16.6160
2022-04-04
Chrome
General
Minor internal cleanup
Sandbox improvements
External @require and @resource content is not updated by default anymore unless the script was updated
Improved compatibility for userstyles installed as userscript
Add an option to control whether to bind GM API functions to the userscript's execution context and sandbox window (and do it by default only if necessary)
Details: Enabling this makes it very easy for a userscript to accidentally leak its granted powers to the page
Treat @include a little bit more like @match if :// is present and add an option to control @include's behavior
Details: Many script developers expect @include *://tmnk.net/* to match pages at tmnk.net only, but it also matches https://example.com/?http://tmnk.net/.
To improve this, @includes that contain a :// are now interpreted a little bit different. Every * before :// now only matches the URL scheme. Also, if :// is directly followed by a * or a / somewhere, then the first * or all until / are applied to the hostname only.
Fix encoding of userscript file and URL imports
UI
Show script and external resources size in dashboard
Show last updated time as relative time if within 4 weeks or as absolute date otherwise
Fix darker theme quirk
