description

Patterns for building agentic, MCP-exposed, self-guarded desktop apps in Tauri (Rust backend + React/TS frontend). Expose finder functions as MCP tools, implement guards/pauses in UI and backend, command palette as agent interface, secure key storage, integration with X resources and CV guard. Use when implementing the Tauri shell, reactor UI, or MCP server. Fission for Rust/TS code; fusion for desktop as agent body.

Tauri Agentic — Desktop as Agentic Platform

Core Mission: Turn a Tauri app into a first-class agentic environment where a reactor runs with autonomy, but self-guards and pauses are exposed in the UI and via MCP.

Key Patterns

1. MCP Server in Tauri: Rust MCP (stdio or local HTTP). Tools: search, analyze, prep, promote, get_state. Guards on every call; ask_user for pauses.

2. UI as Agent Interface: Command palette with guard status; dashboard for spend/rate limits; diff viewer for CV promote (cv-promote-guard).

3. Backend Guards in Rust: Central reactor wrapping platform client + LLM calls; structured decisions; secure keyring/file storage for API tokens.

4. React Frontend: react-client-expert — minimal state, deliberate invoke calls, XState or reducer for reactor FSM.

5. Integration: Load X skill.md at startup (x-agent-resources); optional xurl shell.

Guardrails

• All platform/LLM calls go through reactor core.
• MCP tools read-heavy by default; writes guarded.
• Keys never in frontend.
• Tauri capabilities: fs/dialog limited to app data + approved external CV path.
