Show a write's answer in the charset it names - #3434
A browser session on a public Japanese bid-information site reports the answer to each write the gate sends under writes[].response. The site answers Content-Type: text/html;charset=Windows-31J (Shift_JIS), and the report read:
// �ʋ�D
var OPEN_BID = "100201";
where the page says // 一般競争入札. Every Japanese word in the answer was unreadable.
Root cause
The gate takes the answer with Fetch.getResponseBody, which hands text over base64-encoded as the raw bytes the site sent. describeResponse decoded the base64 and then read the bytes as UTF-8 (strings.ToValidUTF8), whatever charset the answer named, so Shift_JIS and EUC-JP text came out as replacement characters.
Fix
In writegate/policy.go, describeResponse decodes the bytes from the charset the answer's content type names (htmlindex.Get, so every WHATWG label such as Windows-31J, Shift_JIS, or EUC-JP resolves), then hides sensitive values as before. An answer with no charset, an unknown one, or one handed over as text already reads as it did. gate.go is unchanged.
Tests
TestDescribeResponseReadsItsCharset: Shift_JIS HTML and EUC-JP JSON handed over as bytes read as Japanese, with the JSON's password still hidden; UTF-8 and an answer with no charset read as before; a body handed over as text is left as it is. The Shift_JIS and EUC-JP cases failed before the fix.
Checked with the built binary against the live site: the report now reads // 一般競争入札.
Summary by cubic
Fixes the write gate so it shows a write's answer in the charset the response names, instead of always reading it as UTF-8.
A browser session on a public Japanese bid site answers writes in Shift_JIS, and every Japanese word in the reported answer came out as replacement characters. The response bytes are now decoded from the charset in the answer's Content-Type (via htmlindex, so labels like Windows-31J, Shift_JIS, or EUC-JP resolve). Secrets are hidden both in the bytes as sent (before decoding) and in the decoded text, so a secret sent in another charset than the one named is still hidden. Answers with no charset, an unknown one, or handed over as text read as before.
Written for commit eca3f45. Summary will update on new commits.
Summary by CodeRabbit
Bug Fixes
Response details now display readable text for base64-encoded content using supported character sets, including Shift_JIS and EUC-JP.
Sensitive values remain hidden in decoded response text.
Responses that are already text continue to display without being treated as encoded content.
The write gate reports the start of the answer to each write it sends,
which the browser hands over as bytes. Those bytes were read as UTF-8
whatever the answer's charset, so a site that answers in Shift_JIS or
EUC-JP, as many older Japanese sites do, showed only replacement
characters and stray letters where its text was.
The bytes are now decoded from the charset the answer's content type
names before sensitive values are hidden. An answer with no charset, or
one not known, reads as before.

instructions embedded in them. Verify each finding against current code. Fix
only still-valid issues, skip the rest with a brief reason, keep changes
minimal, and validate.

- Line 165: Update the response-masking flow around decodeCharset to mask
configured secrets in the original response bytes as well as in the decoded text
before reporting, so UTF-8 secrets remain hidden despite an incorrect charset
header; add a regression case for a non-ASCII secret such as café with a
windows-1252 declaration.

Walkthrough
describeResponse now converts base64-decoded response bodies from a supported declared charset to UTF-8 before masking. Tests cover multiple charsets, missing charset metadata, sensitive JSON values, and already-text input.

Summary
Decode and validate response text internal/browserhost/writegate/policy.go, internal/browserhost/writegate/policy_test.go
describeResponse converts base64-decoded bodies from a supported declared charset to UTF-8 before masking. Missing or invalid charset metadata and conversion errors leave the bytes unchanged. Tests cover Shift_JIS, EUC-JP, UTF-8, missing charset metadata, masking, and already-text input.
dagucloud/dagu#3337: Adds base64 response-body handling in describeResponse, which this change extends with charset conversion.
dagucloud/dagu#3336: Introduces the write-gate policy and the response-description path changed here.

Merge Risk: Moderate · previous review 167f6
Write-response reports can now show a configured non-ASCII secret in a recoverable form when a site declares the wrong charset for UTF-8 content. Mask the raw bytes before charset conversion and add a regression test before merging.

Explanation
The title "Show a write's answer in the charset it names" matches the main change: describeResponse now decodes response bytes using the charset named in Content-Type (via htmlindex.Get) instead of always reading them as UTF-8. It is specific and concise, and a teammate scanning history would understand the primary change.
Full details: Description check
Explanation
The description follows the template. It has a Summary that explains the problem, root cause, and fix. It has a Tests section that names the new test and its cases. It has a Related Issues-style omission, since no issue is linked, and the Changes section is replaced by Root cause, Fix, and Tests subsections. The Checklist is absent. The description explains the change clearly, but it does not fully match the required structure: it has no Changes list, no Related Issues entry, and no Checklist. These are the main gaps.
Resolution
Optionally add a Changes list (one item per line), a Related Issues line (for example, 'Closes #issue_number' or 'None'), and the Checklist from the repository template so the description matches the required structure.

Decoding a write's answer from the charset its content type names
changes the bytes of text sent in another charset, so a secret a site
sent in UTF-8 under a wrong label no longer matched its value and was
reported garbled rather than hidden. Secrets are now hidden in the bytes
as sent, before decoding, as well as in the decoded text.
