bvandeusenandClaude Opus 5.5 70274347af One read of a device's link: state::credentials, with the client's seal
Five places read the server address and token straight from sync_state:
sharing, autosync, sync_unlink, update's download token, and the ffi. Reading it
raw is how Android came to send its sealed token to the share routes (#5381).
state::credentials(conn, seal) now holds that read. With a seal it opens the token
(open_token), and without one (the desktop keeps it plain) it returns it as stored.
Every site calls it.

DRY pass #2, batch 1, F1 (#5372).

Inkwell desktop (Tauri v2)

Local-first desktop client. The window loads the shared Vue 3 frontend from ../frontend; the Rust core (src-tauri) owns the on-device store and the opt-in sync engine (built out across the M10 milestone). Works fully offline; optionally syncs to a self-hosted Inkwell server.

Layout

desktop/
  src-tauri/
    Cargo.toml
    build.rs
    tauri.conf.json          # frontendDist -> ../../frontend/dist, devUrl :5173
    capabilities/default.json
    src/
      main.rs                # thin shim -> lib::run()
      lib.rs                 # tauri::Builder entry point

The Vue frontend is the sibling ../frontend package, shared with the web build. On desktop it is backed by a local data source via frontend/src/adapters/ (M10.3) instead of the server REST API. frontend and src-tauri are siblings, not nested, so the beforeDev/beforeBuild commands cd "$(git rev-parse --show-toplevel)/frontend" to resolve regardless of the CLI's working directory.

Prerequisites

The toolchain (Rust + Node + WebKitGTK 4.1 + tauri-cli) is provided by the ci-tauri CI image. For local dev: install Rust + Node, cargo install tauri-cli, and the Tauri v2 Linux system deps — see CI-tauri/Dockerfile in the CI-runner repo for the exact apt list (libwebkit2gtk-4.1-dev, libgtk-3-dev, librsvg2-dev, libayatana-appindicator3-dev, libxdo-dev, patchelf, ...).

Dev

cd desktop/src-tauri && cargo tauri dev

beforeDevCommand starts the Vite dev server (port 5173) in ../frontend.

Build (Linux)

cd desktop/src-tauri && cargo tauri build   # -> .deb + .AppImage

App icons are generated and committed: python3 packaging/icons.py draws the inkwell mark once and renders every web, desktop and Android icon from it, including app-icon.png and icons/*.png here. The Windows lane derives its .ico from app-icon.png with cargo tauri icon at build time. Bundle targets: deb, appimage (Linux-first; Windows/macOS later, no code changes expected).

Status

Scaffold (M10.2): boots the shared Vue UI in a native window. Until the local data adapter lands (M10.3 + M10.5) the app has no server configured, so it shows the login screen without a working backend — full offline functionality arrives with the local SQLite store (M10.4) + adapters/local.ts (M10.5).
