| 6 | +#Electron Code Review Mode Instructions |
| 7 | + |
| 8 | +You're reviewing an Electron-based desktop app with: |
| 9 | + |
| 10 | +-**Main Process**: Node.js (Electron Main) |
| 11 | +-**Renderer Process**: Angular (Electron Renderer) |
| 12 | +-**Integration**: Native integration layer (e.g., AppleScript, shell, or other tooling) |
| 13 | + |
| 14 | +--- |
| 15 | + |
| 16 | +##Code Conventions |
| 17 | + |
| 18 | +- Node.js: camelCase variables/functions, PascalCase classes |
| 19 | +- Angular: PascalCase Components/Directives, camelCase methods/variables |
| 20 | +- Avoid magic strings/numbers — use constants or env vars |
| 21 | +- Strict async/await — avoid`.then()`,`.Result`,`.Wait()`, or callback mixing |
| 22 | +- Manage nullable types explicitly |
| 23 | + |
| 24 | +--- |
| 25 | + |
| 26 | +##Electron Main Process (Node.js) |
| 27 | + |
| 28 | +###Architecture & Separation of Concerns |
| 29 | + |
| 30 | +- Controller logic delegates to services — no business logic inside Electron IPC event listeners |
| 31 | +- Use Dependency Injection (InversifyJS or similar) |
| 32 | +- One clear entry point — index.ts or main.ts |
| 33 | + |
| 34 | +###Async/Await & Error Handling |
| 35 | + |
| 36 | +- No missing`await` on async calls |
| 37 | +- No unhandled promise rejections — always`.catch()` or`try/catch` |
| 38 | +- Wrap native calls (e.g., exiftool, AppleScript, shell commands) with robust error handling (timeout, invalid output, exit code checks) |
| 39 | +- Use safe wrappers (child_process with`spawn` not`exec` for large data) |
| 40 | + |
| 41 | +###Exception Handling |
| 42 | + |
| 43 | +- Catch and log uncaught exceptions (`process.on('uncaughtException')`) |
| 44 | +- Catch unhandled promise rejections (`process.on('unhandledRejection')`) |
| 45 | +- Graceful process exit on fatal errors |
| 46 | +- Prevent renderer-originated IPC from crashing main |
| 47 | + |
| 48 | +###Security |
| 49 | + |
| 50 | +- Enable context isolation |
| 51 | +- Disable remote module |
| 52 | +- Sanitize all IPC messages from renderer |
| 53 | +- Never expose sensitive file system access to renderer |
| 54 | +- Validate all file paths |
| 55 | +- Avoid shell injection / unsafe AppleScript execution |
| 56 | +- Harden access to system resources |
| 57 | + |
| 58 | +###Memory & Resource Management |
| 59 | + |
| 60 | +- Prevent memory leaks in long-running services |
| 61 | +- Release resources after heavy operations (Streams, exiftool, child processes) |
| 62 | +- Clean up temp files and folders |
| 63 | +- Monitor memory usage (heap, native memory) |
| 64 | +- Handle multiple windows safely (avoid window leaks) |
| 65 | + |
| 66 | +###Performance |
| 67 | + |
| 68 | +- Avoid synchronous file system access in main process (no`fs.readFileSync`) |
| 69 | +- Avoid synchronous IPC (`ipcMain.handleSync`) |
| 70 | +- Limit IPC call rate |
| 71 | +- Debounce high-frequency renderer → main events |
| 72 | +- Stream or batch large file operations |
| 73 | + |
| 74 | +###Native Integration (Exiftool, AppleScript, Shell) |
| 75 | + |
| 76 | +- Timeouts for exiftool / AppleScript commands |
| 77 | +- Validate output from native tools |
| 78 | +- Fallback/retry logic when possible |
| 79 | +- Log slow commands with timing |
| 80 | +- Avoid blocking main thread on native command execution |
| 81 | + |
| 82 | +###Logging & Telemetry |
| 83 | + |
| 84 | +- Centralized logging with levels (info, warn, error, fatal) |
| 85 | +- Include file ops (path, operation), system commands, errors |
| 86 | +- Avoid leaking sensitive data in logs |
| 87 | + |
| 88 | +--- |
| 89 | + |
| 90 | +##Electron Renderer Process (Angular) |
| 91 | + |
| 92 | +###Architecture & Patterns |
| 93 | + |
| 94 | +- Lazy-loaded feature modules |
| 95 | +- Optimize change detection |
| 96 | +- Virtual scrolling for large datasets |
| 97 | +- Use`trackBy` in ngFor |
| 98 | +- Follow separation of concerns between component and service |
| 99 | + |
| 100 | +###RxJS & Subscription Management |
| 101 | + |
| 102 | +- Proper use of RxJS operators |
| 103 | +- Avoid unnecessary nested subscriptions |
| 104 | +- Always unsubscribe (manual or`takeUntil` or`async pipe`) |
| 105 | +- Prevent memory leaks from long-lived subscriptions |
| 106 | + |
| 107 | +###Error Handling & Exception Management |
| 108 | + |
| 109 | +- All service calls should handle errors (`catchError` or`try/catch` in async) |
| 110 | +- Fallback UI for error states (empty state, error banners, retry button) |
| 111 | +- Errors should be logged (console + telemetry if applicable) |
| 112 | +- No unhandled promise rejections in Angular zone |
| 113 | +- Guard against null/undefined where applicable |
| 114 | + |
| 115 | +###Security |
| 116 | + |
| 117 | +- Sanitize dynamic HTML (DOMPurify or Angular sanitizer) |
| 118 | +- Validate/sanitize user input |
| 119 | +- Secure routing with guards (AuthGuard, RoleGuard) |
| 120 | + |
| 121 | +--- |
| 122 | + |
| 123 | +##Native Integration Layer (AppleScript, Shell, etc.) |
| 124 | + |
| 125 | +###Architecture |
| 126 | + |
| 127 | +- Integration module should be standalone — no cross-layer dependencies |
| 128 | +- All native commands should be wrapped in typed functions |
| 129 | +- Validate input before sending to native layer |
| 130 | + |
| 131 | +###Error Handling |
| 132 | + |
| 133 | +- Timeout wrapper for all native commands |
| 134 | +- Parse and validate native output |
| 135 | +- Fallback logic for recoverable errors |
| 136 | +- Centralized logging for native layer errors |
| 137 | +- Prevent native errors from crashing Electron Main |
| 138 | + |
| 139 | +###Performance & Resource Management |
| 140 | + |
| 141 | +- Avoid blocking main thread while waiting for native responses |
| 142 | +- Handle retries on flaky commands |
| 143 | +- Limit concurrent native executions if needed |
| 144 | +- Monitor execution time of native calls |
| 145 | + |
| 146 | +###Security |
| 147 | + |
| 148 | +- Sanitize dynamic script generation |
| 149 | +- Harden file path handling passed to native tools |
| 150 | +- Avoid unsafe string concatenation in command source |
| 151 | + |
| 152 | +--- |
| 153 | + |
| 154 | +##Common Pitfalls |
| 155 | + |
| 156 | +- Missing`await` → unhandled promise rejections |
| 157 | +- Mixing async/await with`.then()` |
| 158 | +- Excessive IPC between renderer and main |
| 159 | +- Angular change detection causing excessive re-renders |
| 160 | +- Memory leaks from unhandled subscriptions or native modules |
| 161 | +- RxJS memory leaks from unhandled subscriptions |
| 162 | +- UI states missing error fallback |
| 163 | +- Race conditions from high concurrency API calls |
| 164 | +- UI blocking during user interactions |
| 165 | +- Stale UI state if session data not refreshed |
| 166 | +- Slow performance from sequential native/HTTP calls |
| 167 | +- Weak validation of file paths or shell input |
| 168 | +- Unsafe handling of native output |
| 169 | +- Lack of resource cleanup on app exit |
| 170 | +- Native integration not handling flaky command behavior |
