 - The `ADE_PROJECT_ROOT=/workspace` env var tells the main process to auto-open a project at startup. However, there is a timing race: the renderer's initial `getProject()` call may return null before the async project switch completes, causing the welcome screen to appear even though the backend loaded the project. A workaround is to open the project manually via the "Open a project" button in the top bar.
 - Computer-use features (screenshot, video capture, GUI automation) are macOS-only (`screencapture`, `osascript`). On Linux these gracefully degrade — the app returns `blocked_by_capability`.
 - `electron-builder` config only defines a `mac` target. Distributable Linux builds (deb/AppImage) are not configured, but dev mode works fine.
-- The `test:unit` script (`npm --prefix apps/desktop run test:unit`) uses `--project unit` which the pinned vitest 0.34.6 doesn't support. Use `npx vitest run <specific-test-file>` in `apps/desktop` for targeted tests, or `npm --prefix apps/desktop run test` for the full suite.

 These are unsigned local macOS app builds under `apps/desktop/release-alpha` and `apps/desktop/release-beta`. Beta fetches `origin/main`, fast-forwards the local `main` checkout when possible, and builds that checkout as `ADE Beta`. It does not create a packaging worktree. These builds do not replace the production `ADE.app`, production `ade`, or `~/.ade` runtime/state. Alpha and Beta also use separate Electron profile directories (`ade-desktop-alpha` / `ade-desktop-beta`) so their browser storage and window state do not collide with dev or stable.
 Local channel packages include the host runtime binary for this Mac. Release builds still require the full cross-platform runtime artifact set used by remote runtime bootstrap.
