The win7 skin is frameless so 7.css can draw the Aero caption, and on GTK that
means undecorated, which takes the window manager's resize borders and corner
grips with it. All three win7 windows were completely unresizable.
electrobun 1.18.1 offers nothing to re-enable, verified against the shipped
binary rather than assumed: libNativeWrapper exports startWindowMove/
stopWindowMove with no resize counterpart, imports gtk_window_begin_move_drag
but not gtk_window_begin_resize_drag, dragRegions.ts implements moving only,
and BrowserWindow has neither setResizable nor min-size options. But the
window is still programmatically resizable, so only the input affordance is
missing: eight handles overlay the frame and drag it through a new
windowGetFrame/windowSetFrame pair on the shared windowControlHandlers factory,
which gives all three window kinds resize with no per-window wiring.
Three things that would have made this quietly wrong:
- dragRegions.ts starts a window MOVE from a mousedown listener on document,
never checks defaultPrevented, and is not suppressed by a pointerdown
handler either (the compatibility mousedown still fires). Every handle
carries app-region-no-drag, which short-circuits its check first.
- deltas come from screenX, not clientX: a north/west resize moves the window
origin under a stationary pointer, so client coords feed that back into the
next delta and the window runs away.
- the min-size clamp re-anchors the opposite edge; clamping width alone lets x
keep tracking the pointer, walking the window off-screen while it looks
frozen.
This is a stopgap and the point is that it is removable on sight. The frame
math is a dependency-free module so scripts/resize-math-probe.ts asserts all
eight edges without a window (verified it catches the unanchored-clamp bug:
x jumps to 5100 instead of parking at 460). scripts/check-electrobun-resize.ts
scans the installed electrobun for the primitives this is waiting on and prints
the removal checklist when they appear; it runs from postinstall so a version
bump surfaces it, never fails an install, and is silent otherwise. Both trigger
paths were simulated. The component header carries the full checklist; docs
cover the platform consequence and the dragRegions traps.
Harness diffs exactly 0 in both themes; hover and menu probes still clean.
Not yet exercised with a real pointer — that needs a live window.

On the NVIDIA proprietary driver the app booted, logged "miniSCP started",
reported no error — and painted a completely black window, with stderr showing
"Failed to create GBM buffer of size WxH: Invalid argument" and an X11
GLXBadWindow. WebKitGTK's DMABUF renderer cannot allocate buffers there;
WEBKIT_DISABLE_DMABUF_RENDERER=1 is the upstream workaround. Pre-existing on
Linux, unrelated to the context-menu change — it just had never been looked at
because nothing on Linux had been run before.
The app CANNOT apply this to itself. WebKit reads the variable when it forks
its web process, and Bun's `process.env` writes do not propagate to child
processes (verified: a spawned child sees it unset), so setting it in
src/bun/index.ts is inert even from a module imported before `electrobun/bun`.
It has to be in the environment before the app process starts, which means
every launch path must inject it:
- scripts/linux-gpu.ts — shared `launchEnv()` helper, gated on
/proc/driver/nvidia so Intel/AMD keep hardware compositing, and never
overriding an explicit value from the user's environment.
- scripts/dev.ts — uses it for `bun run dev`.
- scripts/start.ts (new) — `bun run start` previously called `bunx electrobun
dev` straight from package.json, where no env could be set; it now goes
through a script like dev does.
- scripts/release.ts — writes a `miniSCP.sh` wrapper beside bin/launcher in the
Linux tarball, since a packaged app goes through none of the above.
Documented in gotchas.md (including that a "does it boot?" log check does NOT
catch this — the log looks healthy) and platform-notes.md, with the smoke test
updated to require that the UI actually renders.
Verified: backend `tsc --noEmit` clean, `bun run build:ui` clean, and
`bun run start` now boots with zero GBM/GLX errors.

Build n = commit count, baked at build time into a gitignored
version.gen.ts (postinstall + all build scripts regenerate it). About
lives in the macOS app menu and as a footer row in the options popover
(the cross-platform path), showing build, commit, date and engines.

Glyph composed from mynaui arrow-diagonal-one (both diagonals) with the
mini-lock of lock-square centered between them — the macOS squircle plays the
role of lock-square's outer square. Indigo gradient + white strokes + amber
lock face for the app icon; a pure black+alpha variant for the macOS template
tray icon, plus 21 pre-rendered tray progress frames (faded arrows + fill bar,
0-100% in 5% steps) for the upcoming tray feature.
Pipeline: scripts/gen-icons.ts renders every size directly from the SVGs with
@resvg/resvg-js (dev-only dep, prebuilt binaries, no postinstall); replaces
make-icon.py + gen-iconset.sh and the sips/iconutil path.

- Overwrite confirmation: name-collision detection before enqueue; dialog shows
source vs destination (size, mtime, 'newer' badge) with per-item Skip/Replace
and batch Skip all / Replace all; type mismatches auto-skip with a toast;
cancel aborts the whole operation
- Transfer speed + ETA: UI computes smoothed bytes/sec from progress deltas
(callback bus makes deltas meaningful); shown in the expanded queue rows and
the status-bar summary; unit follows the speed-unit setting
- Settings: bun-side SettingsStore (settings.json, 0600, atomic) + get/save RPC;
SettingsService; gear popover on the tab row (theme segmented control, speed
unit); persisted across restarts
- Light theme: data-theme on <html> drives token overrides; absent = follow OS
- macOS fused titlebar: hiddenInset + trafficLightOffset, tab row becomes the
draggable titlebar (app-region drag/no-drag classes); other platforms keep a
separate titlebar (gated by a platform value injected via window preload)
- README: known-issues note for the upstream Bun/Electrobun FFI crash
Verified: tsc + ui build clean; SettingsStore roundtrip + 0600 headless;
app boots and the UI fetches settings over RPC at startup.
