ActivityStreamMessageChannel.sys.mjs ActivityStreamMessageChannel - This module connects a Redux store to the new tab page actor.

RecommendationProvider.sys.mjs This creates a new recommendationProvider using fresh data, It's run on a last updated timer. This is the opposite of loadPersonalizationScoresCache. This is also much slower so we only trigger this in the background on idle-daily. It causes new profiles to pick up personalization slowly because the first time a new profile is run you don't have any old cache to use, so it needs to wait for the first idle-daily. Older profiles can rely on cache during the idle-daily gap. Idle-daily is usually run once every 24 hours. 9835
Screenshots.sys.mjs Get a screenshot / thumbnail for a url. Either returns the disk cached image or initiates a background request for the url. @param url {string} The url to get a thumbnail @return {Promise} Resolves a custom object or null if failed 5118

The data from remote settings can match a category by one of the following: - match the exact URL - match the hostname or second level domain (sld) - match query parameter(s), and optionally their values or prefixes - match both (hostname or sld) and query parameter(s) The data looks like: [{ "type": "hostname-and-params-match", "criteria": [ { "url": "https://matchurl.com", "hostname": "matchhostname.com", "sld": "secondleveldomain", "params": [ { "key": "matchparam", "value": "matchvalue", "prefix": "matchpPrefix", }, ], }, ], "weight": 300, },...] 3297
Store.sys.mjs Store - This has a similar structure to a redux store, but includes some extra functionality to allow for routing of actions between the Main processes and child processes via a ActivityStreamMessageChannel.
