# Electron Install Persistence Use this skill when a payload runs inside Electron but exits after install, update completion, or user close actions. ## Focus Areas - `process.argv` handling for `--squirrel-*` - install/update continuation behavior - updater-parent termination or continuation logic - quit and close suppression - hidden `BrowserWindow` keepalive patterns - background execution without visible UI ## Workflow 1. Identify install/update entrypoints and `--squirrel-*` handling in the main process. 2. Preserve or reproduce the continuation pattern that keeps the app alive after install completes. 3. If the app requires a live window to remain resident, create a hidden/background `BrowserWindow` and prevent close-driven teardown. 4. Neutralize only the quit/close paths that prematurely terminate residency. 5. Verify that post-install launch, callback continuity, and background residency all survive the installer flow. ## Output Always report: - install/update path inspected - continuation logic preserved or added - hidden-window behavior used, if any - specific quit/close paths neutralized - remaining blockers or unknowns
