BossWatch

v0.8.8 (2026-08-12)

Full Changelog Previous Releases

• Merge branch 'beta' for v0.8.8
• 12.1 compat: Interface 120100 + harden against hard-error secret auras
  Patch 12.1 changes the secret-values contract for aura APIs: index- and
  instance-ID-based reads (GetUnitAuraInstanceIDs / GetAuraDataByAura-
  InstanceID / GetAuraDataByIndex) now RAISE a Lua error while auras are
  secret, instead of returning secret-tagged fields, and UNIT_AURA
  delivers a fully secret payload. Reference:

  • Retail TOC: Interface 120100, notes updated to 12.1.
  • Frames/Auras.lua: pcall around GetAuraDataByAuraInstanceID (was
    unwrapped — first thing to blow up on a secret-aura boss) and around
    GetAuraDataByIndex (the fallback Retail lands on when the modern call
    fails — would have errored right after). Clean break on first
    failure: icons just don't render, no error spam.
  • BossWatch.lua DumpAuras: same pcall treatment.
  • SlotProvider + SodSlotProvider EventFilter: issecretvalue guard on
    the unit argument before string ops / comparisons (12.1 UNIT_AURA
    payloads can be secret).
  • Tooltips already fully pcall'd since v0.7.2 — no change needed.
  • Also checked: UnitClass (already issecretvalue-guarded), no use of
    removed SecureAuraHeaderTemplate / getglobal / UIParentLoadAddOn.
  • Version 0.8.8 on all four TOCs.
