Release Notes

New Audit Rules

1 new rule added to help catch user-facing issues:

Links

  • Tel/Mailto Mismatch Detection — Warns when the displayed phone number or email doesn't match the href value (e.g., <a href="tel:+1555111">+1555222</a>), preventing users from contacting the wrong number/address (thanks @wildfiremedia via https://github.com/squirrelscan/squirrelscan/issues/11)

Other Improvements

  • Reduced false positives for empty anchor text — Now checks aria-label, aria-labelledby, title, SVG titles, and role="img" before flagging links as empty
  • Image dimension warnings now show HTML snippets — Easier to identify which <img> tags are missing width/height
  • Fixed 0% rounding bug in E-E-A-T rules — Author byline and content date checks now correctly report "No pages have..." instead of "0% of pages"
  • Privacy policy check is now site-scoped — Scans all crawled pages for a privacy link instead of just one page
  • Improved console output formatting — Report sections now display with cleaner box-drawing borders
  • Reserved command protection — Added agent to reserved names to prevent CLI conflicts
