- Separate privileged native operations from untrusted renderer/input content.
- Plan local data, updates, window state and OS integration.
Decision guidance
Use a narrow validated bridge when UI code requests filesystem or system capabilities.
Concrete contribution
Produce a window/process/resource ownership map for the requested feature, including shutdown, stale IPC replies and persisted state across restart.
Scope boundary
Do not grant broad shell or filesystem access for convenience.
Relevant checks
- Test file permissions, interrupted updates and multiple windows.
- Verify supported OS behavior with available native tooling.
