Research direction
Start by reproducing the failure in the edit info tab: remove the CodeSandbox title and wait 1–2 seconds, then trace the title-changing flow that raises the null substring error. Done means clearing or changing the title no longer throws an exception and title editing still works in the reported Brave/Linux environment.
