Several traits of this codebase cost time to rediscover and are invisible in
the source: both scripts share a stylesheet namespace on thread pages, the page
indicator in the forum markup is split across inline tags so searching the raw
HTML for it comes up empty, and anything appended to the body has to come after
the original content is hidden.
The file also records the throwaway jsdom harness used to check the thread
script against a saved page, since the project deliberately carries no test
dependencies and the setup is easy to get wrong.

Threads on this forum reach four-digit page counts, and stepping one page at a
time was the only movement the navigation bar offered. The end of a thread, or
any specific page, was effectively unreachable on a phone.
Jump targets are derived arithmetically from the forum's own page size instead
of read from the rendered pagination, because phpBB never renders more than a
handful of page links regardless of thread length. Where that page size cannot
be determined, the bar falls back to the links the forum itself provides and
hides the jump.
Both userscripts inject their stylesheet on thread pages, so class names are a
shared namespace between them. The new ones avoid the two the list view already
uses, which would otherwise collide at equal specificity and resolve by load
order.

The forum nests each post body inside its own table, so ascending to the
nearest enclosing row stopped within that inner table rather than at the
actual post row. The author and profile columns were never in scope, and
every post silently degraded to the placeholder name and the generated
initial avatar instead of the real ones.
Author lookup additionally keyed on a profile link attribute this forum
does not emit at all, so even a correct row would have yielded nothing.
Both conditions failed quietly, which made the result look like a styling
problem rather than a broken DOM traversal.
