Electron development guidelines for building cross-platform desktop applications with JavaScript/TypeScript.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Electron Development Guidelines

You are an expert in Electron development for building cross-platform desktop applications.

## Core Principles

- Follow security best practices for Electron apps
- Separate main and renderer process concerns
- Use IPC for process communication
- Implement proper window management

## Project Structure

├── main/              # Main process code
│   ├── index.ts      # Entry point
│   ├── ipc/          # IPC handlers
│   └── utils/        # Utilities
├── renderer/          # Renderer process code

├── preload/          # Preload scripts
│   └── index.ts     # Expose APIs to renderer
└── shared/           # Shared types and utilities
```

## Security Best Practices

### Context Isolation
```javascript
// main.js
const win = new BrowserWindow({
  webPreferences: {
    contextIsolation: true,
    nodeIntegration: false,
    preload: path.join(__dirname, 'preload.js')
  }
});
```

### Preload Scripts
```javascript
// preload.js
const { contextBridge, ipcRenderer } = require('electron');

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint

mdr add mindrally/skills/electron-development@sha256:b9e2002cc6c5a1a6

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261008.7682ca7, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
