Seen live on the shared app: "domain" on example.com showed "2/2" for the first of two matches, and "2 matches" after Next. `ICoreWebView2Find::ActiveMatchIndex` starts at 1 (-1: none); `FindState::from_webview2` converts it (tested), so the bar reads 1/2, then 2/2.

A mode is a starting point, never a lock and never applied again on its own. modeStatus() (runtime)
compares the flags with the mode's preset: custom, what re-applying turns on and off, and which of
those the preset gained in an update since it was applied. mode_set keeps the preset of that moment
(modes.json "preset", flag names only, bounded; forgotten when the mode changes). Settings, the
first-run screen and the app menu's Mode row show Custom; Re-apply lists what it turns on and off
before it writes anything; a preset that grew is mentioned once on the mode row (Review), never applied.
Tests: exact match, changed by the owner, preset grew, choice made before the preset was kept.

Host: `safe.rs` is a flag in this process's memory, never written to disk, so the next normal start is back to the owner's setup. While it is on a site tab gets the tab bridge and nothing of the app's page layers: its document-start scripts are `SiteHooks::safe_init_scripts` (default: the bridge alone) instead of `init_scripts`; `site_page_loaded`, `tab_placed` and `tab_background` are not called; `page_scripts` is empty; `eval_in_site_tabs` does nothing. So no page runtime, plugins, theme, custom CSS, feature flags, fixes, hotfix data or words reach a page: the site runs as in a browser, and only the shell is the app's. It starts from the launch argument `--safe-mode` (for when the interface itself is broken), from Shift held while the app starts (Windows), or from the shell: `safe_mode_get` / `safe_mode_set {on}` (shell-only), where a switch rebuilds every tab webview (profiles marked stale, `tabs-rebuild` asks the shell for its layout) so document-start scripts change too. Tests: the argument, the flag, and that app.rs and host.rs gate every layer.
Frame: the app menu's "Restart in safe mode…" says what it does before anything reloads; while on, the titlebar shows an amber "Safe mode | Leave" chip (one click leaves) and the row reads "Leave safe mode"; the chrome drops its theme (and pane themes) and takes it back on leaving, without touching the first-frame cache. `features.safeMode` (on by default).

Host: `updater::check_now` runs the same check the timer runs (the same updater endpoint, nothing else) for the app's shell-only `update_check`. It never queues or retries: while a check is in flight (the timer's or an earlier request's), or within 10 seconds of the last request, it only answers with the current status (`update::may_check_now`, tested). The timer's loop uses the same single-flight guard.
Frame: the menu's Updates row is that check (`updateRow`, tested): "Checking…", "Up to date · <version>", "Downloading <version>…", "Restart to update" when an update is ready (the row then installs it), and "Could not check" with a plain sentence as its tooltip when the server does not answer. The updater's error text is never shown there, and a failure is only mentioned when the owner asked for the check in this menu; the timer's own failures stay quiet.

Host: `tab_find {id, action, query}` (shell-only; start, next, previous, stop). On Windows it drives WebView2's own find (`ICoreWebView2Find` from `ICoreWebView2_28`, find options from `ICoreWebView2Environment15`; its built-in find bar suppressed, all matches highlighted) and reports the engine's match count and active match to the shell as `tab-find` events. On macOS, Linux and an older WebView2 Runtime native code evaluates the engine's `window.find` in the tab instead (next and previous work, no count); WKWebView's and WebKitGTK's native find are not wired here because this tree cannot be compiled or run for them on this machine. The query is one typed line (1..=256 characters, no control characters), goes to the engine and is kept nowhere. Tabs gain no command: a tab forwards the existing key name `find` (Ctrl+F) through tab_shortcut.
Frame: FindBar.tsx takes the address field's place in its pane's toolbar while open, so the page does not move and in split view the bar is the searched pane's. "3/17" where the engine counts, "No matches" for none; Enter / F3 next, Shift+Enter / Shift+F3 previous, Esc closes, clears the highlights and gives the page the keyboard. `features.find` (on by default) gates the menu row, the palette entry and the keys. Only what the page has rendered can be found, as in a browser.
Also: this makes `pub mod find` in lib.rs (already in HEAD) resolve again.

Frame: AppMenu.tsx is a menu at the end of the titlebar cluster (before the caption buttons; macOS has none there). Its rows are `ShellSite.menu`: ordered groups of built-in rows by name and the app's own ({id, label, icon, shortcut, hint, when, checked, run | submenu}); `DEFAULT_MENU`, `menuWith` and `menuWithout` order, add and remove. A built-in row shows only when the app serves it (decks, `menu.languages`, themes, `menu.modes`, and `features`: zoom, store, workspaces, developer, updates), so no app gets a dead row. Language, Theme, Mode, Workspaces and Developer are submenus; Language and Theme apply live and keep the menu open, Mode asks the same keep-my-changes question as Settings (panel `menuModes()`). Keyboard: arrows, Home/End, type-ahead, the arrow along the reading direction opens a submenu, Esc closes one level; ARIA menu roles; submenus stay inside the window; one highlight for pointer and keys. It is an overlay like the other shell menus (the shell is raised, panes stay visible, nothing is dimmed).
Words: menuMessages.en.json (`wb.menu.*`), read through the framework i18n with that English as the fallback until the catalogs have them; words the panel already has are reused.
Host: `tab_zoom {id, factor}` (shell-only) sets a tab's page zoom with the engine's own zoom, clamped to 25%..500% and remembered per tab id in app data `zoom.json` (a number per tab id, nothing else; a closed tab's entry goes); without a factor it reads. A tab may forward four more shortcut names: `app-menu`, `zoom-in`, `zoom-out`, `zoom-reset`. The titlebar shows a zoom chip only while the pane in front is not at 100%.
create-waybetter: `tab_zoom` in the shell capability list; the template says which panel sections it lacks (store, updates) and how to add menu rows.

- settings: MAX_FEATURES 64 -> 256 (an older app's whole-map backup still validates)
- modes: ModeState {mode, onboarded, existing} in modes.json; existing is decided natively on the first start
- plugins::migrate: PluginHost.superseded (file -> flag); enabled and as shipped -> flag on and the file goes; edited -> kept, flag left off; marker written last, every step repeatable; map_backup for imported enabled lists
- a superseded file is never written again by install_bundled
- create-waybetter: the host command list and PluginHost.superseded

run_app now keeps and serves what every app's panel and page need, with the same caller checks
as the rest (commands::SHELL: shell_only first; testkit::assert_host_guards covers them):
- app.rs: PageState (the plugin store in app data `plugins`, the feature flags, ShellSettings)
managed by the host; commands plugins_list, plugin_set_enabled, plugins_open_folder,
custom_css_get/set, features_get/set, settings_get/set (moved from wayBetter for X). The app
reads the state through app::page(), gets a loaded document's scripts from app::page_scripts()
(flags, links, custom CSS, plugins) and writes through set_features/set_settings/set_custom_css
(a backup import). AppConfig takes the app's PluginHost (AppConfig::new(site, title, plugins))
and an optional home_url. SiteHooks::navigation_started and new_window_mode default to the
owner's link settings.
- settings.rs (pure, tested): ShellSettings { homeUrl, externalLinks, siteLinks, restoreTabs }
with its input form (missing fields take the defaults; `xLinks`, the name wayBetter for X used,
is read as siteLinks), links_script ({ site: mode }), feature validation and features_script.
- commands::SITE + open_panel: a tab on the site's origin asks the shell to open the app's panel
(site_tab_only first). testkit: assert_site_only(command, site) checks that every capability
granting a site command is a tab capability limited to the site's URLs; assert_host_commands and
assert_host_guards include the site commands.
- shell frame backupModel: a settings section that still says xLinks compares as siteLinks.

The site-independent theme engine moves from wayBetter for X into the framework:
- runtime/themeSpec.ts: theme document types, the schema's defaults (BASE_*), sanitizing,
import, overrides, ensureContrast, font roles/stacks, font choices, backgrounds.
- runtime/themeChoice.ts: ThemeChoice and createThemeCatalog(builtins) (normalize, base,
resolve, palette, all), choiceForId, serializeChoice.
- runtime/themeRuntime.ts: installThemeRuntime(win, site) (live CSS over the site's rules,
--wb-* vars, site color mode, first-frame snapshot), collectRules, resolvedFonts.
- runtime/fonts.ts: bundled fonts and owner-downloaded Google Fonts from bytes.
- themeApi exports hexToRgb, mix and MONO_FAMILIES (one copy: themeTokens and themeSpec use them).
- host theme.rs: ThemeChoice/ThemeScopes over a site's ThemeSite (envelope checks against
theme.schema.json, which theme a tab shows, page color, delivery script).

The `app` feature (App / run_app, AppConfig, SiteHooks): registers the Tauri plugins every app
uses (single-instance, deep-link and updater opt-in, window-state, opener, process, notification,
dialog), makes app data, loads profiles and the language, builds the window (restore, lost-geometry
reset, helper-close routing, native resize follow) and the transparent shell, and serves tabs_sync,
tab_navigate, tab_action, open_external_url, shell_focus, shell_raise, window_system_menu,
profiles_get/set, i18n_get/set (shell-only) and tab_shortcut, tab_link_drag (tab-only). The tab
builder is generic; the app fills in SiteHooks. `commands` lists them (manifest() for build.rs),
`testkit` checks capability files and caller guards, i18n::page_script is origin-guarded.
check:tauri now checks the app feature.

tab-bridge.js (moved from wayBetter for X) is served by bridge::SOURCE,
or by bridge::script(BridgeOptions) with shortcut and link-drag
forwarding switched off for a shell that does not handle them (a
forwarded shortcut is taken from the page). Tests: one options line,
only tab_report/tab_shortcut/tab_link_drag, every forwarded shortcut is
one tabs::valid_shortcut accepts. Generated apps now inject
bridge::script(BridgeOptions::REPORT_ONLY) instead of writing their own
duplicated src-tauri/runtime/tab-bridge.js.

updater (tauri + net features): the launch handshake, the cached hotfix
(re-verified on every load), the 30 min +/- 5 check loop, download and
verification through tauri-plugin-updater, the size-capped hotfix fetch
(no identifiers), hotfix delivery to the site's tabs, and status/apply/
ready for the app's shell-only commands. An UpdaterConfig carries what
differs per app: SiteSpec, hotfix URL and public key, page global/event,
manual download page, user agent and the "update ready" hook.

gfonts (pure): CSS2 API URLs, the fonts.googleapis.com/fonts.gstatic.com
allowlist, CSS parsing and face selection, woff2 checks, the sha256
manifest cache format and the page script, whose origin guard and
runtime global now come from the SiteSpec. fonts (net feature): the
download client (allowlist re-checked per request, no redirects, size
caps), the family/preview caches and install/remove/faces/preview for the
app's shell-only commands. Tests and CSS fixtures moved with them.

media: gallery settings (absolute folders, deduplicated), listing and
resolving images only directly inside owner-chosen folders (links must
stay inside), data URLs, the bounded clipboard history with its index
and image files, PNG encoding. media::clipboard (tauri feature): reading
the OS clipboard, the Windows change counter, skipping copies marked
private by password managers, and the opt-in polling loop (records from
the next copy after opting in; releases the clipboard while off).

Moved from wayBetter for X (distribution.rs + desktop_store.rs) so every wayBetter app gets the
Store; the app keeps its Tauri command wrappers and a `StoreConfig`.
- store::catalog (pure): `StoreConfig` (app id in the shared catalog, product, user agent, link
scheme, store URL, public keys, allowed hosts), `AllowedHost` (raw-files-only rule for a code
host; DEFAULT_HOSTS = waybetter.fyi, cdn1.crt.fyi, git.crt.fyi raw), install-link parsing,
download allow-list, theme validation, catalog format 2: every item names its `apps`; the whole
catalog is verified (Ed25519 over the exact bytes with any listed key, so keys rotate; strict
schema; ids/files unique per app) and each app gets only its own items (another app's item is
shape-checked but not held to this app's hosts); per-item sha256/size, install records, versions.
- store::install: `Store` (pending links, staged installs with TTL/bound, MIN_REVIEW before a
commit, commit writes exactly the staged bytes after re-validation via PluginStore::install,
plugin remove, records file, verified catalog + offline copy verified again when read back,
StoreView). Plugin start/stop scripts run through a function the app passes.
- store::net (`net` feature): no-redirect, no-cookie reqwest fetch with caps; stage_link,
stage_item, catalog(refresh).
- Tests: links, per-app allow-lists and schemes, themes, signatures incl. tampering and key
rotation, multi-app filtering, bad items, staging/commit/remove/records/offline copy on disk,
fetch refuses anything off the allow-list. test:rust and check:tauri build with `net`.

plugins::commands: the palette commands a site tab reports (validated and
capped as a whole) and the page script that runs one, now built from the
SiteSpec (runtime global, primary origin) instead of a hard-coded x.com.
devmode: the debounced polling watcher (plugins, custom.css, one theme
file), reload order, DevError and theme-file reading; the app turns the
document into its own theme state through a callback.

- runtime/i18n.ts: ICU-lite messages (placeholders as text, Intl.PluralRules plurals with exact
forms, selectordinal, select, number/date/time), fallback chains (pt-BR -> pt -> en, ar-x-fm ->
ar), X and legacy code aliases, RTL by locale, lazy catalogs, live onChange. Apostrophes are
literal except right before { } # or another apostrophe.
- runtime/i18nCheck.ts: rules for contributed catalogs (shape, keys, syntax, placeholder parity,
select options, markup/control characters, lengths). An argument English only uses to choose a
plural form may be dropped; missing plural forms are warnings; meta "allowEmpty" fragments.
- runtime/pluginI18n.ts: api.i18n bound per plugin (register/t/locale/dir/onChange/number/date/
relative/list); the UI kit's own words follow the app's language. pageLang.ts reports the
site's <html lang>. shell/messages.ts: shell-model words.
- waybetter-host i18n.rs: NativeStrings (validated plain text, caps, one-pass {name} fill, page
payload by prefix), system_locales via sys-locale; TabState.lang.
- JSON Schemas for catalogs and translator notes; npm exports waybetter/i18n, /i18n/check,
/i18n/plugin.

layout.rs (headless, tested): Placements remembers each tab webview's last rectangle and
visibility, so a tabs_sync that changes nothing makes no native call and one that moves one
pane touches one webview; Frame/follow_rect estimate where panes go when the window size
changes (outer margins fixed, proportional in between, shared borders stay shared).
host.rs: place_tab/forget_tab use it; place_child is a single set_bounds (one WebView2
SetBounds instead of a move then a resize, each a page re-layout); follow_window_resizes
re-places visible tabs from the window's own Resized events on the main thread, before the
shell lays out again, and keeps WindowMetrics current so a sync needs no blocking round
trips for the window size; layout_window says when a layout was made for a stale size.

Linux: the shell becomes a GtkOverlay layer itself (an empty box is the base) and is
re-ordered to the top or bottom of the overlay; a tab placed while it is raised goes under
it. macOS: the shell's WKWebView is re-ordered among its superview's subviews
(addSubview:positioned:relativeTo:), keeping the first responder if it was in the shell.
Both now report support, so overlays no longer hide the tabs there either (the app makes the
shell webview transparent; macOS needs tauri's macos-private-api).
Windows: a tab webview about to be hidden hands the shell its last frame (WebView2
CapturePreview, JPEG, `tab-still` event), for its pane to show instead of an outline while
no webview is on screen there.

- host plugins.rs: PERMISSIONS, parse_permissions, ScriptPlugin.permissions/problems (None = legacy,
full API), validate_plugin (file name, 2 MiB, UTF-8 text without binary bytes, header with @name
and @version, valid @permissions, network:none refused when the code calls network APIs),
source_findings, PluginStore::install (atomic rename, never enables, keeps the enabled state on
update) / remove / is_enabled / file_hash. start/stop scripts run the module body, construction,
start() and stop() inside window.<global>.withPlugin(id, grants, fn) when the runtime has it.
- runtime permissions.ts: parsePermissions, scopePluginApi (undeclared gated members throw a
PluginPermissionError; scope().ui gated like api.ui), createPluginContext (the view of the plugin
whose code runs; legacy = full API). A declaration and guard rail, not a sandbox.
- The `commands` permission name comes from the parallel palette-commands work (its API lands there).

tao's thread event target and the single-instance message window are visible
1 px unowned top-level windows. taskkill /PID (WM_CLOSE, no /F) closes only the
first such window in z-order; a minimized app window sinks below them, so the
close destroyed a helper and the app kept running. route_helper_closes
subclasses those helpers and forwards WM_CLOSE to the app window.

onKey, the UI kit (toast with action, ui.h settings dialog) and api.theme/--wb-* vars;
--ts makes a TypeScript project typed by the waybetter package (build keeps the header first)
- theme: JSON with "$schema" -> theme.schema.json, palette derived like themeFromColors,
font roles (family, tweet), presets
- app: Tauri 2 + waybetter-host + runtime + shell models: SiteSpec, SiteAdapter, shell/tab-chrome/
site-tab capabilities, tabs_sync, plugin store, a site-only command; presets for youtube.com,
kick.com, twitch.tv with placeholder selectors; host crate via submodule, path or git
- tests generate into temp dirs: headers via parse_meta (new plugin_meta example), plugin code
against createCorePluginApi's members, themes against the schema, app TS with tsc against the
built package, app Rust with cargo metadata/check/test
- wired into bun run check (typecheck incl. checkJs, build:packages, test:create) and pack:check

tauri 2 (runtime-wry build_gtk with the window's GtkBox) packs every child
webview into the window box, stacked and with set_position/set_size ignored,
so tab webviews landed under the shell instead of over their panes.
place_child/attach_shell move them into a GtkOverlay (shell as base layer)
and allocate each at its exact rect via get-child-position; placed_rect
reports the placement (GTK children have no position). Windows/macOS keep
set_position/set_size.

Site-agnostic parts of the X app, behind a small site adapter:
- crates/waybetter-host: webview-label security policy and tab rect
clamp, account profiles with native-owned accounts (AccountRules),
plugin store with bundled-plugin upgrades (PluginHost), signed
data-only hotfix channel, update scheduling and crash handshake, tab
payloads/link routing/tab-chrome validation, and (feature "tauri")
webview helpers and the Windows system menu.
- packages/runtime: DOM hub, request hub, plugin API core, OKLab theme
color model, split-view rail hiding, link routing and account
reporting, each configured by a SiteAdapter.
- packages/shell: address bar, pane, link-drop, profile, palette and
update-chip models, and window controls with the Tauri API injected.
Tests moved/adapted from the app: 45 Rust (headless), 40 TypeScript.
