Turns a pasted list into a set, and shows which items repeated and how many times.

Preview: https://claude.ai/artifact/SUGeeAooLBuGzLTxoCm879 (a build of this branch, opening on the new widget)

What it does

  • Splits on lines, commas or whitespace, with optional trimming and case folding (the first spelling seen is the one kept).
  • Rejoins the unique values with the separator they were split on, in first-seen, alphabetical (natural number ordering, so item2 precedes item10) or by-count order.
  • A second tab lists each repeated value with its occurrence count; Use as input feeds the deduplicated list back into the box.
  • Empty items are always dropped: a blank line or a trailing comma is punctuation, not an entry.

On large lists, and why the per-item counts are free

Deduplicating already needs a Map keyed on each value, so counting occurrences is the same pass. Measured in Node on this branch:

List Set only, no counts Map with counts
100,000 items 37 ms 47 ms
1,000,000 items 621 ms 790 ms

The ~25% is one object allocated per distinct value, not a second pass. What does not scale is rendering one row per duplicated value: in Chromium, building and laying out raw list rows costs 25 ms at 1,000 rows, 239 ms at 10,000 and 2,509 ms at 100,000, before React's own overhead.

So the counts stay exact and complete, and only the list is capped, at the 200 most repeated values with the remainder reported as a total ("Showing the 200 most repeated of 120,000 duplicated values"). The input is read through useDeferredValue so a large paste never blocks typing.

At that scale the limit is no longer this widget but the <textarea> itself: one keystroke in a bare 300,000-line textarea costs Chromium ~2.9 s (~1.1 s at 100,000 lines). Pasting a huge list is fine; editing it character by character is not, and that is true of every textarea-based widget here. Moving the input to CodeEditor (CodeMirror virtualizes) would be the follow-up if that ever becomes a real use case.

Testing

  • npx tsc -b --noEmit, npm run lint (only the two pre-existing PageColorPicker.tsx warnings), npm test: 967 passing, including 20 new tests on the pure engine and 10 on the widget (the 200-row cap and option persistence among them).
  • Also driven in a real Chromium at 300,000 items: 120,000 duplicated values counted exactly, 200 rows rendered, the widget still usable.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features

    • Added a Duplicate Remover tool to the widget catalog, bringing the catalog to 36 tools.
    • Added Unix Permissions under Security.
    • Supports line, comma, or whitespace-separated input, trimming, case-insensitive matching, and multiple sorting options.
    • Displays item counts, duplicate details, and deduplicated output with copy and “Use as input” actions.
  • Bug Fixes

    • Preserves trim settings when generating output and prevents stale results from replacing newer input.
  • Tests

    • Added comprehensive coverage for duplicate removal, parsing, sorting, counts, output handling, and state persistence.

Turns a pasted list into a set: splits on lines, commas or whitespace,
with optional trimming and case folding, and rejoins the unique values in
first-seen, alphabetical or by-count order. A second tab lists each
repeated value with how many times it occurred.

The counts are free: deduplicating already needs a Map keyed on each
value, so counting occurrences is the same pass (measured at 1M items,
790ms with counts against 621ms for a Set that discards them). What does
not scale is rendering one row per duplicated value, so the summary lists
the 200 most repeated and reports the rest as a total, and the input is
read through useDeferredValue so a large paste never blocks typing.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The PR adds a Duplicate Remover widget with configurable parsing, comparison, ordering, statistics, duplicate reporting, persistence, and output actions. It adds the processing engine, tests, registry metadata, and README catalog updates.

Changes

Duplicate Remover

Layer / File(s) Summary
Deduplication engine and validation
src/widgets/duplicate-remover/deduplicate.ts, src/widgets/duplicate-remover/deduplicate.test.ts
The engine supports multiple split modes, trimming, case handling, ordering, statistics, separator-aware joining, and capped duplicate summaries. Tests cover these behaviors.
Widget processing and interface
src/widgets/duplicate-remover/DuplicateRemoverWidget.tsx, src/widgets/duplicate-remover/DuplicateRemoverWidget.test.tsx
The widget preserves the trim setting in output and blocks stale “Use as input” actions. Tests cover processing, output reuse, formatting, and persistence.
Widget registration and catalog
src/widgets/duplicate-remover/definition.ts, src/widgets/registry.ts, README.md
The widget receives metadata, is added to ALL_WIDGETS, and is listed in the README catalog.

action is disabled or ignored whenever stale is true, preventing stale output
from replacing the current widget input; preserve the existing behavior when
stale is false.

Comment thread src/widgets/duplicate-remover/DuplicateRemoverWidget.tsx Outdated
- Keep untrimmed comma values as they are. With trimming off the items
  still carry the space that followed each comma, and joining them back
  with ", " grew every value by one space, so feeding the result back
  through "Use as input" changed the data. The separator now follows the
  trim setting, and a round-trip test covers it.
- Disable "Use as input" while the result is stale. `output` is derived
  from the deferred input, so clicking during the deferred pass on a large
  list wrote the previous result over the edit that was still being
  processed. The handler is guarded as well as the button.

Both CodeRabbit findings addressed in 21afbfc: the one raised here, plus the untrimmed-comma one raised on #41 before this code moved to its own branch.

  • Stale "Use as input". Button disabled while the deferred pass is behind, and the handler guarded too, so a click on a large list can no longer write the previous result over the edit still being processed.
  • Untrimmed comma values grew a space. With trimming off, items keep the space that followed their comma, and joining with ", " added another one, so a round trip through "Use as input" changed the data. The separator now follows the trim setting; a regression test round-trips a, b, b and checks the second pass finds nothing left to remove.
