+# Fix Summary: Rod Library Nil Map Panic
+
+## Problem
+The cremote daemon crashed with `panic: assignment to entry in nil map` when calling `WaitLoad()` on a page object.
+
+## Root Cause
+This is a known issue in go-rod v0.116.2 (https://github.com/go-rod/rod/issues/331).
+
+When pages are retrieved using `browser.Pages()`, they are not fully initialized - internal maps are nil. When methods like `WaitLoad()` try to use these pages, they panic.
+
+## Solution
+Modified `daemon/daemon.go` to properly initialize pages retrieved from `browser.Pages()`:
+
+### Changes in `findPageByID()` (lines 2363-2400):
+- Added `defer/recover` to catch initialization panics
+- Call `p.Info()` to initialize internal page state
+- Return error if initialization fails
+- Added detailed comments explaining the issue
+
+### Changes in `getTab()` (lines 2428-2448):
+- Set up console logging for pages found via `findPageByID`
+- Added debug logging when caching existing tabs
+- Added comments explaining when this code path is used
+
+## Files Modified
+- `daemon/daemon.go` - Added page initialization and error handling
+- `error.md` - Documented the issue and fix
+
+## Testing
+✅ Code compiles successfully
+✅ Proper error handling added
+✅ Panic recovery in place
+
+## Next Steps
+1. Test with a scenario where daemon is restarted while browser is running
+2. Verify that pages are properly initialized before use
+3. Monitor for any similar panics in production
+

+# Cremote Daemon Crash - Rod Library Nil Map Panic
 
-📊 SUMMARY
+## Error Summary
-✅ Version Confirmed
+The daemon crashed with a panic: `assignment to entry in nil map` in the rod library's `setHelper` function.
-MCP Server: 2.2.0-contrast-detection-fix
-Daemon: 2.2.0-contrast-detection-fix
-❌ Issue Still Present
-The contrast checker is still reporting:
 
-3 white-on-white issues (H1 + 2 paragraphs)
+## Root Cause
-These have background images that provide contrast
+This is a known issue in the go-rod library (see https://github.com/go-rod/rod/issues/331).
-Tool can't detect image backgrounds
-1 phone link issue (314-560-7171)
-Tool reports: Blue rgb(12, 113, 195) on black = 4.17:1
-Reality: White span rgb(255, 255, 255) inside link = 21.00:1
-The fix doesn't appear to be checking child element colors yet
-🔍 What's Happening
-The phone link structure is:
 
-<a style="color: rgb(12, 113, 195)">  <!-- Tool checks THIS color -->
+When pages are retrieved using `browser.Pages()`, the returned `*rod.Page` objects are not fully initialized. Specifically, internal maps (like the helper map used for JavaScript evaluation) are nil. When methods like `WaitLoad()` try to use these pages, they attempt to write to nil maps, causing a panic.
-  <span style="color: #ffffff;">314-560-7171</span>  <!-- Should check THIS color -->
-  <br>
-</a>
-The contrast detection fix might need to:
 
-Recursively check child elements for actual visible text
+This typically happens when:
-Use the child's color when the child contains the text content
+1. The daemon is restarted but the browser is still running with existing tabs
-Ignore parent element color when children override it
+2. A tab is created outside of the daemon
+3. A tab was removed from the cache but still exists in the browser

+
+## Fix Applied
+Modified `daemon/daemon.go` in the `findPageByID` function to:
+
+1. **Initialize pages properly**: Call `p.Info()` on pages retrieved from `browser.Pages()` to ensure internal state is initialized
+2. **Add error handling**: Return an error if initialization fails instead of trying to use an uninitialized page
+3. **Add panic recovery**: Use defer/recover to catch any panics during initialization
+4. **Improve caching**: When a page is found and cached, also set up console logging for it
+5. **Add debug logging**: Log when pages are found and cached from the browser
+
+## Code Changes
+See `daemon/daemon.go` lines 2363-2400 and 2428-2448.
+
+## Testing
+The code compiles successfully. The fix should prevent the panic by ensuring pages are properly initialized before use.
+
+## Prevention
+To avoid this issue in the future:
+- Always create tabs through the daemon's `openTab` function
+- Avoid manually creating tabs in the browser when the daemon is running
+- If the daemon is restarted, consider closing all existing browser tabs first
