fix: strengthen CERT_DISABLE_PATTERNS for live + future cert variants#100
Conversation
Verified the actual cert URL on 2026-05-11: https://anthropic.skilljar.com/claude-certified-architect-foundations-access-request The existing `/\/claude-certified/i` pattern catches the live URL, but the broader detection had gaps for future cert tiers and the abbreviations now in public use. Added three patterns: /foundations-access-request/i Matches Skilljar's standard "*-foundations-access-request" URL shape, regardless of vendor prefix. Covers the live URL plus hypothetical future certs (e.g., a non-Claude-prefixed Anthropic cert). /[/-]cca-?(?:foundations|professional|expert|associate)\b/i Anthropic's cert ladder is positioned as Foundations → Associate → Professional → Expert. The `cca-` (Claude Certified Architect) abbreviation is already used across third-party prep guides, GitHub repos, and Udemy practice tests — likely to appear in URL paths once higher tiers ship. /\/ccaf\b/i `CCAF` is the abbreviation seen in third-party study materials for Claude Certified Architect — Foundations specifically. Why this matters: extension activity on a proctored cert exam page could be flagged as cheating, putting our users at real risk ($99 exam fee + Anthropic's first formal credential). Already 0 known incidents because the live URL is covered, but the patch hardens forward-compat. +5 tests in tests/content-helpers.test.js (live URL verified date 2026-05-11, future cert tier coverage, no false positives on normal course URLs). 336/336 pass. No version bump — purely defensive pattern addition with no behavior change for any currently-published URL. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

Existing `/\/claude-certified/i` catches it, but the wider detection had gaps for future cert tiers and public abbreviations now in use.
Why this matters
Extension activity on a proctored cert exam page could be flagged as cheating — $99 exam fee + Anthropic's first formal credential. Currently no known incidents (live URL covered), but the patch hardens forward-compat.
Three new patterns
Tests
+5 cases in tests/content-helpers.test.js:
336/336 pass.
No version bump
Purely defensive pattern addition, no behavior change on any currently-published URL.
