2029257 - Add “Report issues” link to disclaimer

Status: VERIFIED FIXED

(Core :: Machine Learning: Frontend, task, P1)

Description

[Justin Levinsohn]

Update the disclaimer text at the bottom of Smart Window to include a “Report issues” link.

• Disclaimer text updates from:
  "AI can make mistakes."
  to:
  "AI can make mistakes. Report anything that seems off."

• "Report anything that seems off" is a clickable link

• Link navigates to:
  https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=Core&component=Machine%20Learning%3A%20General

• Link styling matches existing link styles in Smart Window

• Link opens in a new tab

• Text and link are readable and correctly styled in both light and dark mode

[Tracking Requested - why for this release]: clearer feedback mechanism for mvp (english-only strings)

we don't usually take string uplifts for beta, but if you do plan on requesting uplift, pls ping l10n team

Comment 4

[Dan Mosedale (:dmosedale, :dmose)]

I've reached out to the l10n team and asked them to confirm my guess that uplifting should be fine, because SmartWindow is (for now) English only and the string is in browser/locales-preview.

Comment 5

[Bryan Olsson [:bolsson]]

These strings are in preview and not exposed to localization, so no concerns from l10n team for this uplift.

[Dan Mosedale (:dmosedale, :dmose)]

After discussion with Product & Design, the updated URL will be the currently hidden https://connect.mozilla.org/t5/discussions/smart-window-beta-feedback/td-p/122365. I don't have privs to update comment 0 here, but I'll update Jira and the patch.

Before we request uplift, I think it's important to know the answer to the authentication/signup question I’ve asked towards the end of this Slack thread.

TL;DR: If someone responds in thread and an engineer can be recruited to quickly request uplift using Lando before 6am Pacific Friday, we might conceivably get it in Beta 8 (I've already tested the patch rebased against 151 beta locally by hand). If not, I’m hoping we can still land it for Beta 9 (which spins on Monday).

[Dan Mosedale (:dmosedale, :dmose)]

Loren and :Jon S re-verified overnight that the Mozilla Connect URL behaves correctly when switched into production mode. Beta 8 has already been built. I'll request uplift shortly for beta 9 (which spins on Monday).

firefox-beta Uplift Approval Request

• User impact if declined/Reason for urgency: A key function of the SmartWindow MVP is to collect user feedback. The addition of this link adds a low-friction way to collect that feedback.
• Code covered by automated testing?: yes
• Fix verified in Nightly?: yes
• Needs manual QE testing?: yes
• Steps to reproduce for manual QE testing: I don't think it's critical that we do a manual QE test after landing because of the low risk, but there's some value in doing another check.

How to test:

• Open a new tab in smart window

• Start a chat by typing a question in smartbar and clicking "Ask"

• Look for the “Report any issues” link below the smartbar

• Click it

• Expect to see an Auth0 page because the production thread is temporarily hidden

• Notice that the chat has shifted over to the sidebar

• Click “Report any issues” again, this time from the sidebar to verify the click mechanism works from there

• Expect to see another new tab next to the first, also with the Auth0 page

• Risk associated with taking this patch: low

• Explanation of risk level: UX (low):

• Adds a link to the text disclaimer at the bottom of a running chat session (main tab or sidebar)

• Link opens a thread on connect.mozilla.org in a new tab (currently hidden behind authentication, which will be removed and re-checked before launch)

Engineering (low):

• CSS changes only apply to newly added link.
• Code changes small & straightforward.

Q/A (low)

• Automated testing of
  • link existence in page
  • correct link URL
  • use of new-tab when opened
• Manually tested in
  • Nightly 151 on Windows 11 and MacOS 26.4.
  • locally built Beta 150 on MacOS 26.4.
• No platform-specific-code touched.
• String changes made/needed?: The only string changed by this patch is not exposed to localizers because SmartWindow strings are all in browser/locales-preview. https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2029257#c5 has l10n approval.
• Is Android affected?: no
