Brooklyn Nicholson 6254c568c8 feat(desktop): opt-in renderer debugging port for dev runs
The renderer is a Chromium page, and apps/desktop already carries a whole
CDP toolkit for it — scripts/eval.mjs, scripts/perf/lib/cdp.mjs with its
shared SELECTORS map, and the diag-*/probe-* family. None of it can
attach to `hgui` or `npm run dev`, because neither passes
--remote-debugging-port. The only launcher that opens one is
`npm run perf:serve`, which is a separate isolated instance rather than
the app you're looking at.

Add HERMES_DESKTOP_CDP_PORT. When set, the shell opens a CDP port on
loopback so that existing tooling can read the live DOM: computed
styles, geometry, which rule actually won.

Three independent gates, all required, resolved by a pure function in
electron/dev-cdp.ts so the policy is testable without an Electron app:

  1. not packaged — a shipped build never opens the port, and this is
     checked first so no env combination can talk it into doing so;
  2. HERMES_DESKTOP_DEV_SERVER present — an unpackaged `electron .`
     against dist/ is how the packaged app gets smoke tested, so it
     behaves like the packaged app here;
  3. the port explicitly requested and a valid integer.

Default `npm run dev` is unchanged and silent: no port, no nag. An
opt-in that gets refused always logs why, so nobody loses an hour
wondering what isn't listening.

The address is pinned to 127.0.0.1 rather than left to Chromium's
default, and is deliberately not configurable — there's no reason to
expose a renderer debugger off-host and offering the knob invites
someone to try.

scripts/eval.mjs hardcoded :9222 and threw a raw ECONNREFUSED stack when
nothing was there. It now honours the same variable and explains itself.

Website

This website is built using Docusaurus, a modern static website generator.

Installation

yarn

Local Development

yarn start

This command starts a local development server and opens up a browser window. Most changes are reflected live without having to restart the server.

Build

yarn build

This command generates static content into the build directory and can be served using any static contents hosting service.

Deployment

Using SSH:

USE_SSH=true yarn deploy

Not using SSH:

GIT_USER=<Your GitHub username> yarn deploy

If you are using GitHub pages for hosting, this command is a convenient way to build the website and push to the gh-pages branch.

Diagram Linting

CI runs ascii-guard to lint docs for ASCII box diagrams. Use Mermaid (````mermaid`) or plain lists/tables instead of ASCII boxes to avoid CI failures.
