`bun run start` died on Linux with ERR_DLOPEN_FAILED (missing
libayatana-appindicator3.so.1). Fixing the environment exposed the real gap:
electrobun's ContextMenu.showContextMenu is a documented no-op on Linux, and
since the UI suppresses the webview's own right-click menu, EVERY panel context
menu was silently dead there — Send to Other Panel, Open, Rename, Permissions,
Delete, Copy Path, Reveal and the column picker all unreachable. Electrobun
itself logs "Application menus are not supported on Linux. Implement menu UI in
your webview HTML instead." at boot.
- Context menus are now HTML on EVERY platform (ui/src/app/context-menu.ts +
context-menu.service.ts), not just as a Linux fallback: one implementation
cannot drift from a second one. The item builders are ported verbatim from
the old bun menu, so ordering, per-platform labels and the Windows-local
chmod hide are unchanged, and picks are emitted as the same `ctx-*` / `col:*`
strings through RpcService.emitMenuAction — App.handleMenuAction is untouched
and still the single dispatcher for both the macOS menubar and right-clicks.
Adds what the native menu gave for free: arrow/Enter/Escape keys, viewport
edge-flip, close on blur/resize/scroll. The Edit item now shows the real F4
hint instead of the native menu's "e" mnemonic.
- New shellItemAction RPC replaces showRowMenu/showColumnsMenu — the only part
the webview can't do itself (reveal, open-with-default, copy path). Deletes
src/bun/context-menu.ts entirely.
- release.ts gains a linux-x64 target. Electrobun emits only the .tar.zst
updater blob on Linux, so the artifact is a .tar.gz of the assembled app
folder, mirroring the Windows portable zip.
- Docs: platform-notes gets a Linux runtime-dependency table (AppIndicator is
linked HARD — a missing lib is a boot failure, not a degraded tray), the
ldd diagnostic, GNOME tray caveat, known issues and a first-boot smoke test;
gotchas gets the ERR_DLOPEN_FAILED trail and the benign GLX/GBM startup
noise; architecture/build-and-release/README updated accordingly.
Verified: backend `tsc --noEmit` clean, `bun run build:ui` clean (399 kB
initial), app boots on Linux with no errors beyond the documented benign
warnings. NOT verified on macOS/Windows — the native menu is retired on those
platforms too, so the menus need eyeballing on a Mac before the next release.

bun run release -- --target mac-arm64|mac-x64|win-x64: gen version/icons,
build UI, electrobun build --env=stable, collect artifacts as
release/<target>/miniSCP-Build<n>-<target>.*. mac-x64 builds on the
arm64 Mac by running electrobun's x64 CLI under Rosetta 2 (verified:
x86_64 launcher in the produced app). Windows also zips a portable
build next to the Setup installer. Tag-triggered Gitea Actions matrix
included, inert until runners exist. legacyNames emptied — the BunSCP
migration has served its purpose.
