Browser, page, permission, and runtime boundaries for the documented extension package.

Environment matrix

EnvironmentStatusNotes
Chrome / Chromium MV3Primary targetUse the current extension package and verify against representative pages.
Microsoft Edge ChromiumLikely compatible, verify locallyChromium behaviour is similar but enterprise policy and extension settings can differ.
FirefoxNot the primary published extension targetAdaptation notes exist, but do not claim supported release unless a release package proves it.
Browser-restricted pagesUnsupported or limitedExtension stores, browser settings, PDF viewers, and privileged pages can block injection.
Authenticated or enterprise appsSupported only where authorised and technically accessibleReview role, state, and data-handling boundaries before scanning.
Cross-origin iframes and embedded widgetsLimitedTest embedded experiences separately where authorised.

Runtime boundaries

A11Y Cat can inspect only contexts where the browser allows the extension to run. Iframes, shadow DOM, strict CSP, cross-origin content, dynamic states, and pages requiring user interaction can reduce coverage.

Verification required for each environment

  • Record browser name and version, extension package source, operating system, viewport class, authentication state, and target page type.
  • Run a smoke scan on a known page before relying on output.
  • Review diagnostics and limitations before making coverage claims.
  • Repeat scans after opening menus, dialogs, errors, responsive states, or authenticated journeys that matter.
