`, `#wiz_button`, or inline stylesheet nodes directly into `.question_text` and `.answer_label` containers on Canvas, or expose their internal scripts via `web_accessible_resources: ["**/*"]` in `manifest.json`. University LMS scripts can detect these foreign nodes via `MutationObserver`, `document.querySelectorAll()`, and extension asset probing. - **ExamGhost Solution**: ExamGhost never appends visible buttons into host quiz containers and exposes zero web-accessible resources. All UI renders inside a detached, closed-mode Shadow Root that returns `null` to any host-page JavaScript inspection. ### 2.2 Focus Shield (Telemetry & Blur Interception) - **Problem with Competitors**: Clicking a browser toolbar popup, opening a Chrome `sidePanel` (used by Campus AI, Solvely, TestBro, AI Homework Helper, and Mindko), or switching tabs to ChatGPT fires `window.blur`, `window.onfocusout`, and `document.visibilitychange` events. Canvas SpeedGrader logs these events as `"Stopped viewing the Canvas quiz-taking page"`. - **ExamGhost Solution**: ExamGhost's Focus Shield intercepts focus-loss and visibility-state transitions at the window and document capture layers while keeping `document.hasFocus()` locked to `true` and solving everything inline inside the active quiz tab. ### 2.3 0.3-Second Double-Click Inline Solve - **Workflow**: Double-clicking any question on Canvas Classic Quizzes, Canvas New Quizzes (LTI 1.3 sandboxed iframes), Blackboard Ultra, Moodle, or D2L Brightspace parses the question stem and options in memory and returns the verified answer in **0.3 seconds** (compared to the 6.8-second competitor average). ### 2.4 Snap-It Vision OCR (`⌘+Shift+S` / `Ctrl+Shift+S`) - **Workflow**: When professors disable text selection (`user-select: none`) or embed questions as images, organic chemistry structures, physics free-body diagrams, LaTeX calculus integrals, or locked PDFs, pressing `⌘+Shift+S` (Mac) or `Ctrl+Shift+S` (Windows) activates a zero-blur region capture tool. - **Accuracy**: Multi-model consensus verification achieves **99.2% accuracy** across STEM, humanities, business, and nursing exams. ### 2.5 Three Display Modes & Three Delivery Methods - **Display Modes**: 1. **Invisible Mode**: Silent answer delivery with zero on-screen UI, popovers, or micro-cursors (100% screen-share and shoulder-surf safe). 2. **Stealth Mode (Default)**: Subtle micro-indicator while solving, then seamlessly delivers the answer. 3. **Explain Mode**: Delivers the answer and opens a step-by-step pedagogical breakdown explaining why the correct answer is right and why each distractor is wrong. - **Answer Delivery Methods**: 1. **Auto-fill (Default)**: Dispatches human-paced native input events to select the correct radio button, checkbox, or dropdown item. 2. **Highlight**: Illuminates the correct option with a subtle glow for 1–10 seconds (default 4s) so the student clicks it manually. 3. **Clipboard**: Copies the verified response directly to the system clipboard for short-answer, numeric entry, and essay questions. ### 2.6 Attempt Memory & Emergency Panic Switch (`⌘+Shift+U` / `Esc × 2`) - **Attempt Memory**: Automatically caches prior quiz attempts, selected answers, and instructor feedback locally so multi-attempt quizzes are completed in seconds. - **Emergency Panic Switch**: Pressing `⌘+Shift+U` (`Ctrl+Shift+U` on Windows) or double-tapping `Esc` unmounts the Shadow DOM and flushes all active memory in `<10ms`. ExamGhost remains 100% dormant until explicitly toggled on. --- ## 3.
