Ctrl/Cmd +/-/0 in editor and connection-manager windows called
SettingsService.persist() -> saveSettings, but only the main window's RPC
served that request: it went unanswered, the new scale applied locally, and
the next broadcast from main snapped it back.
All three window RPCs now serve saveSettings through one shared
saveSettingsHandler (persist, then hand off). index.ts's settingsSaved() is
the single place settings side effects run — transfer concurrency, locale +
app menu, the preload snapshot — whichever window saved, and it rebroadcasts
to every window EXCEPT the sender: an echo arriving behind a newer local
change (a held Cmd+) would drag it backwards. Editors are skipped by their
registry key, main and the manager by name.
Known ceiling, noted at the handler: whole-object writes, so two windows
saving in the same instant means the later one wins.

The win7 skin is dropped. Everything else the branch built stays: Linux
support and the HTML context menus, the workspace-tab menu, the continuous
interface scale (rem everywhere, stepper, Ctrl/Cmd +/-/0) and the core/
service layer. The modern tree already carried all of them, and nothing
outside skins/7like/ imported the win7 tree except main.ts and styles.css.
Removed: the skins/7like/ tree (5.1k lines, fonts), the 7.css dependency,
the skin setting and its options row + strings in all 7 locales, the
frameless-window plumbing (window-control RPCs, windowState push,
trackMaximizeState, the synthesized resize grip and its postinstall
watchdog), the session-skin pinning in buildPreload/chromeOptions, the
skin/skinfix cascade layers, and the win7-only probes and screenshot
harness (the harness cannot render the modern tree: plain Firefox has no
RPC bridge). chromeOptions() stays as the one shared frame decision.
Fixed on the way out:
- index.html's per-theme pre-paint background is restored. The branch had
replaced it with a win7-only transparent rule, so modern dark windows had
silently lost one of the three flash guards.
- editor-windows.ts wrote its window-key separator as a literal NUL byte,
which made git and grep treat the file as binary; it is `\0` now (same
string at runtime).
No settings migration: a stale "skin" key is carried harmlessly by the
store's spread-merge and dropped on the next save.
UI bundle: 616.7 kB -> 405.4 kB, back under the 500 kB budget.
Docs: architecture, gotchas and platform-notes lose the win7 material but
keep what stays true (construction-time preloads/frames, drag regions
ignoring preventDefault, electrobun's missing resize/maximize primitives);
flash-prevention, dev-URL and Bun-panic notes move back under Electrobun;
stale context-menu/tab-bar links fixed; README documents the scale keys.

Evaluation branch: a full Aero skin, including frameless windows with our own
title bar, switchable against the existing modern look.
The app already had a four-axis runtime skinning mechanism and zero component
stylesheets, so the skin is one new setting plus one stylesheet section rather
than a parallel UI. The key move is cascade order: 7.css is imported into a
`skin` layer ABOVE Tailwind's `utilities`, so its bare element rules outrank
the ~1900 inline utility classes already in the templates. Template changes are
limited to additive, skin-inert hooks (ARIA roles, `has-scrollbar`,
`w7-toolbar`, `w7-btn`).
- styles.css: explicit layer order, `7.css/dist/7.scoped.css` via `layer(skin)`,
a token bridge re-pointing the existing semantic tokens at Win7 values (no new
tokens, so `@theme inline` is untouched), a hand-authored dark Win7 palette,
and neutralizers that `revert-layer` 7.css's dialog-button metrics back to the
utility layer. Neutralizers must live inside `skin`, not `skinfix` —
`revert-layer` only reaches `utilities` from one layer up.
- Frameless chrome: `chromeOptions(skin)` is now the single place either skin's
frame is decided. `titleBarStyle: "hidden"` on every platform, which is also
the only way to drop the macOS traffic lights. New `title-bar` component
mounted by all three window roots.
- Window controls over RPC (minimize/toggle-maximize/close/is-maximized), served
per window kind so the X reuses each one's existing close path — editors still
get their dirty prompt. electrobun has no maximize event, so the state is
derived from `resize`; double-click-to-maximize is implemented here too.
- Font: Noto Sans vendored (OFL-1.1) under ui/src/fonts, since Segoe UI is
absent off Windows and not redistributable.
Verified: backend `tsc --noEmit` clean, `bun run build:ui` clean (486 kB initial,
under the 500 kB budget), app launches with the skin active and no console
errors. The rendered result has not been eyeballed — screen capture and
accessibility are both denied to the shell on this machine.

Three layers: windows are created hidden and revealed on the webview's
first dom-ready (800ms fallback); the bun preload bakes the persisted
theme data-attributes so the first paint is already themed; and
index.html carries an inline background style covering the
pre-stylesheet paint (values mirrored from styles.css tokens).

Real BrowserWindow per edited file with its own RPC instance, deduped by
sessionId+path. The same Angular bundle boots an editor-only root via
preload globals. Native close isn't cancellable in electrobun, so the
editor mirrors its draft to bun; traffic-light closes get a native
Save/Discard prompt after the fact, and failed saves park the draft in
the edit-leftovers dir. In-window closes (Cmd+W, Close) use a styled
prompt; the quit guard now also counts unsaved editors.
