- Browser client (step 4): the web build joins sessions a desktop app hosts
through the browser's WebSocket API (web-sys, binary frames, the same
message encoding). Its connection logic is a target-independent state
machine (collab-net driver.rs): hello on open, changes and presence held
until the welcome, throttled presence, keep-alive pings, a silent host
counted as dropped, reconnect with backoff, final refusals. Tested natively
against a scripted socket and a real host over loopback. Hosting stays
desktop-only (LiveLink::can_host; collab.peers canHost). https pages are
told up front that they can only reach ws:// sessions on this computer.
- Shared join logic (join.rs: GuestConfig, outcomes, taking in host messages)
and transport limits (limits.rs) used by the native guest and the browser.
- Invite links: `figcraft figcraft://join?...` joins on start (a bad link
opens the Join dialog with it); file:// arguments are paths. Windows
registers a per-user figcraft:// opener (HKCU\Software\Classes\figcraft)
behind a Registry trait (tests use a fake): collab.registerLinks {on?} and a
Preferences checkbox, default on for installed builds, never for builds
from source. macOS Info.plist declares CFBundleURLTypes; the Linux desktop
entry declares x-scheme-handler/figcraft and passes %U.
- Join dialog: Escape closes it and no longer reaches the canvas (selection
kept); its field has the keyboard when it opens.
- Docs: collab-protocol (browser client, links, mixed content), mcp,
control-protocol, README, web hosting notes, collaboration wording in the
progress docs (numbers unchanged).
