core, desktop: Db::conn everywhere, Change::default, notes_where, and shared row mappings
From the audit (#5179, core and desktop half).

- Every `db.0.lock().map_err(|e| e.to_string())?` (about 50 sites in core and
  the desktop) is now `db.conn()?`. The few sites that deliberately handle
  a poisoned lock differently, and the tests, keep their own spelling.
- push::Change derives Default, so its four constructors name only the
  fields they set.
- store: list_notes, reminders, titles and search share notes_where (ids
  from a query, each loaded through load_note). Labels share
  LABEL_SELECT/label_row, and saved filters share
  SAVED_FILTER_SELECT/saved_filter_row.

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).
