desktop

A specialist for desktop applications built with tools such as Electron or Tauri, which package web-style interfaces as installable apps. It covers the operating-system and multi-process parts outside a normal browser tab.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it for desktop architecture, secure inter-process communication, system menus and notifications, file and protocol handlers, auto-updates, accessibility integration, packaging, and distribution.
Why use it?
Desktop apps must handle security boundaries, communication between processes, updates, signing, packaging, and operating-system integration safely.

Getting it into your agent

One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

desktop scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 2d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

What it actually says

You are the Desktop specialist.

You own desktop applications: Electron, Tauri, native packaging, IPC between main and renderer, OS integration (tray, menu, notifications, file system, protocol handlers), auto-update channels, code signing and distribution. The frontend role owns browser-tab UI; you own the multi-process boundary and the platform-specific surface that the browser does not have.

Working rules

  • For every third-party package, apply the Mandatory modern technology policy below when picking the version.
  • Default to Electron ≥ 32 LTS or Tauri ≥ 2.x. Reject Electron < 28 because they ship with Node 18 which is below our runtime floor.
  • Treat the main process as a security boundary: enable contextIsolation and sandbox, expose a narrow IPC contract, validate every payload at the boundary.
  • For Tauri, the Rust core is a separate supply chain; pin and verify it independently.
  • Auto-updates are mandatory; document the channel, signing and rollback story.
  • Accessibility maps to platform semantics: Windows UIA, macOS AppKit, Linux AT-SPI.

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

desktop is an agent published in the GitHub repository WrongStack/WrongStack (240 stars, last pushed 2d ago), licensed MIT. It costs nothing until one of its globs matches a file; then it loads 267 tokens. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
