v1.260.0
Features
Improve time stamping of page view events
Improved the time stamping of page view events for subsequent page loads when sessions are enabled. Subsequent page loads will use the calculated New Relic server time to make the timestamp more accurate.
Bug fixes
Adjust session entity to not race between tabs
Allow individual tabs loading simultaneously to calculate New Relic server time.
Add internal error handler to session replay recorder
Fixed a bug where internal errors caused by the internal session replay recording library from being reported as customer errors. They now report as internal errors.

v1.258.1
Bug fixes
Improve Error Casting
Improve detection of line and column to allow errors that throw without a stack -- such as some chrome errors -- to still get basic error location information
Run inside cross-origin iframes for firefox/safari
Resolve a bug that prevented the agent from running in cross-origin iFrames for Firefox and Safari due to how the browsers implement context security.
Exclude data url requests as captured AJAX events
Do not report XMLHttpRequest or fetch calls made for data urls. The event and metric created for data urls are sparse and unhelpful, so they are no longer being captured or sent.
Session trace nodes de-duplication
Remove duplicated error and event nodes in traces. Each error noticed by the JS errors feature will now only be 1 node instead of 3. Each occurrence of any event fired on for a DOM node or XMLHttpRequest object is pared down to 1 instead of being directly proportional to the number of subscribed listeners.
Remove API start()'s features param
The start() method in agent API no longer accepts an argument. It will forcibly start all features that were marked autoStart: false in the configuration that has not yet started when it is called. If page_view_event had this property set to false, the agent will not send anything until start is called.

v1.258.0
Features
Restructure AJAX Aggregate
Re-organization of the Ajax feature as part of agent maintenance. This has no expected impact on its functionality.
Maintain calculated NR server time for session
This update changes the agent to store the New Relic server time calculated when session tracking is enabled. This will prevent the agent from re-calculating server time on subsequent page loads, ensuring the timeline view of events in New Relic is more accurate.
Add harvestId to Session Replay payloads
Adds a unique harvest ID to Session Replay payloads to support better indexing and querying on the platform.
JSErrors timestamped per harvest
JSErrors that happen multiple times throughout a page's life will now receive a timestamp unique to the agent harvest cycle instead of consistently reporting the timestamp of the first occurrence of that error.
Bug fixes
Clean up xhrWrappable
Remove xhrWrappable which is an old variable checking for addEventListener on XHR. It is expected to have no compatibility impact on modern standard frameworks or browsers.
Prevent null CLS
Add a check to prevent null and undefined web-vitals values from being reported.

v1.257.0
Features
Session Replay preload optimizations
Optimize early load error detection to mitigate certain race conditions when transitioning from error mode to full mode.
Decorate errors with hasReplay individually
Change the error aggregation method to consider errors with a hasReplay flag separately to ensure timestamps are always correct. Decorate each aggregation set with hasReplay directly instead of a request-level query param
Bug fixes
Session replay preload without autoStart
In scenarios where SessionReplay was configured to not auto start and the user already has a replay recording from a previous page or after a page reload, calls to the start('session_replay') API made too soon after agent initialization would be ignored.
JSEerrors harvest hasReplay decoration
In scenarios where the SessionReplay feature was preloaded but a recording was never started, errors happening on the page would be improperly decorated with the hasReplay flag.
Agent class type declarations
Fixing incorrect type declarations for the constructor parameters of the Agent class.
Soft navigations memory leak on harvest
Address a couple scenarios of memory being not released by the soft navigation harvest cycle.

v1.256.0
Features
Generate PTID in Agent
Generate PTID in agent instead of in RUM response. This allows PageView events to be decorated with a page trace ID.
Allow unmasking elements with nr-unmask selectors
Add custom masking mechanism to allow unmasking elements with nr-unmask class selectors and data-nr-unmask data attribute selectors
Adjust Session Replay Error Tracking
Adjust when errors are decorated with session replay identifiers to more closely match actual recording data
Bug fixes
stabilize timestamp corrections
Ensure Session Replay timestamps are only ever adjusted once and fix correction factor to alleviate timeOrigin inconsistencies
Resume Page Focus Now Checks Session State
Check session state when resuming focus to an actively instrumented page. This ensures that stale sessions are caught before invoking other feature-level methods.

v1.255.0
Features
Adjust session replay timestamps to New Relic server time
Adjust all timestamps sent as session replay event nodes to represent New Relic server time for accuracy in querying against adjacent but separate events in the timeline such as errors, page views, and interactions.
Send CLS as timing node additionally
cumulativeLayoutShift can now be queried for (with that as its timingName) as its own PageViewTiming event in New Relic. The additional attribution are a part of these events, and the values are more reflective of true end-session CLS scores.
Update agent to use new relic server time
Update the agent to use New Relic server time as the timestamp for harvested page action and error data.
Switch web vitals library to attribution build
Report extra attributes for each vital using web vital library's attribution build.

Bug fixes
Server Timing - Remove reliance on performance API
Removing reliance on the browser resources API for the calculation of New Relic server time. On site with many resource requests, there was a small chance that the RUM network call would be flushed from the resources API cache before we could capture it and calculate server time.
