Sravan 593a4677b6 feat(clients): scaffold mobile (Capacitor) + desktop (Electron) shells
Plan + decisions in CLIENTS.md (parallel mobile+desktop; desktop = technician
client + existing remote-control agent host; mobile = Capacitor wrap).

- desktop/: Electron technician client — loads the live Connect UI, native
  screen capture via setDisplayMediaRequestHandler, persisted session, external
  links to browser; electron-builder config for Win/Mac/Linux installers.
- mobile/: Capacitor project — server.url loads Connect UI, push/camera/status-bar
  plugins declared, www splash fallback; iOS/Android added via `cap add`.
- Reuses the existing /api/v1 + Bearer auth backend; no web-code changes.
- .gitignore: ignore generated mobile/android, mobile/ios platform dirs.

Biz Connect — Desktop client

Electron shell that loads the live Connect web UI and adds native screen capture. See the overall plan in ../CLIENTS.md.

Run (dev)

npm install
SERVER_URL=http://localhost:8090 npm start     # default is https://remote.bizgaze.com

Build installers

npm run dist        # electron-builder → Win NSIS / Mac dmg / Linux AppImage

Signed, trusted installers need certificates:

  • Windows: an EV (or OV) code-signing certificate.
  • macOS: Apple Developer ID cert + notarization (CSC_LINK, APPLE_ID, APPLE_APP_SPECIFIC_PASSWORD).

Notes

  • The window loads ${SERVER_URL}/home; relative /api and /ws URLs work because the origin is the server itself — no web-code changes.
  • setDisplayMediaRequestHandler in main.js is what makes "Share Screen" work in Electron; it currently defaults to the primary display. Swap in a source-picker for production.
  • The session is persisted (persist:bizconnect) so login survives restarts.
  • window.__NATIVE__ === 'desktop' is exposed for the web UI to feature-detect.
