Electron Candidate Discovery

Use this skill to identify practical Electron app candidates for the same patching and delivery method.

Goal

Return a ranked shortlist of realistic candidates, not a broad catalog.

For Each Candidate Include

  • app name
  • why it is practical
  • packaging shape
  • installer/update mechanism
  • whether it appears Squirrel-like or similarly patchable
  • likely main-process entrypoint location
  • obvious blockers or drawbacks

Selection Bias

Prioritize apps that are:

  • clearly Electron-based
  • locally patchable without bespoke tooling
  • packaged in a way that exposes entrypoints or repackable resources
  • delivered through Squirrel or a closely similar updater/install chain
  • realistic for user delivery and repeated rebuild workflows

Output

Return a ranked shortlist with concise, actionable reasoning for each entry.
