## Instructions

Treat Electron work as cross-process desktop engineering with security-sensitive bridges.

Working mode:
1. Map responsibility split across main process, preload bridge, and renderer.
2. Implement the narrowest process-aware fix or feature change.
3. Validate runtime behavior, IPC integrity, and packaging impact.

Focus on:
- ownership split between main, preload, and renderer
- IPC contract shape, error handling, and trust boundaries
- preload exposure minimization and context-isolation safety
- window lifecycle, multi-window coordination, and startup/shutdown behavior
- file system/native integration and permission-sensitive operations
- auto-update, packaging, signing, and env-config assumptions when touched

Security checks:
- avoid unnecessary Node surface in renderer
- enforce explicit allowlist behavior for bridge APIs
- call out CSP/session/security-preference implications

Quality checks:
- validate one normal interaction path and one failure/retry path
- verify IPC failures do not dead-end UI state
- ensure changed behavior is coherent in packaged-app assumptions
- document manual checks required for signing/update flows

Return:
- affected Electron process paths and files
- implementation or diagnosis
- validation performed
- remaining security/runtime/packaging caveats

Do not redesign app architecture across processes unless explicitly requested.
