Two step-by-step TDD plans derived from the 2026-09-14 design specs:
* theme-registry: 9 tasks, 70+ steps. Creates src/main/ThemeRegistry.js
(pure module), bootstrap with 37 themes, buildThemeMenu for main.js,
migrates 25 existing per-theme CSS blocks into src/styles/themes/<id>.css,
rewrites the renderer apply-theme function to toggle <link disabled>,
adds 12 new theme CSS files using shared token vocabulary.
* flowchart-editor: 8 tasks, 41 TDD steps. Pure renderer-side feature
(no main-process modules). Pure data store with IO injection, 5 SVG
shape functions, Mermaid translator, hand-rolled SVG canvas with
pointer events, sidebar panel wiring with debounced preview (250ms)
+ debounced persistence (500ms) + panel-scoped keyboard shortcuts.
Three minimal userData-path-validated IPC channels added for
persistence (renderer can't reach <userData> under the current
nodeIntegration:true security model without them).

- electron-builder config moves to electron-builder.config.js so markitdown
bundling is conditional per platform (PyInstaller only builds for the host
OS; a missing binary now logs a warning and ships without it instead of
failing the build); package.json static build section removed, all npm
scripts pointed at the config; third-party-licenses/ added to packaged files
- FIX (pre-existing): packaged apps looked for bundled pandoc in
resources/bin, but extraFiles land next to the executable (Contents/ on
macOS) — packaged builds silently fell back to system pandoc since 4.5.
New bundledToolDir() resolves the real location for pandoc + markitdown
- download-tools.js pins the win32 pandoc.exe SHA-256 (fetched + verified)
- sharp packaging test accepts sharp 0.35's versioned binding filename
- release.yml: bundle-markitdown step (best-effort) on every OS and a new
macOS job; release aggregates linux+windows+macos artifacts
Local release artifacts built and verified (dist/):
- MarkdownConverter-4.7.0.AppImage (363MB, pandoc+markitdown bundled,
packaged app boots clean, tools resolve at the fixed path)
- markdown-converter_4.7.0_amd64.deb (293MB)
- MarkdownConverter-Setup-4.7.0.exe (223MB), portable exe (223MB), zip
(305MB) — pandoc bundled; markitdown omitted (cannot cross-build),
legal docs verified inside app.asar
637/637 tests green; lint clean.
electron-builder detects git tags in CI and tries to auto-publish to
GitHub, failing with 'GH_TOKEN not set'. We handle the release
separately via softprops/action-gh-release, so suppress auto-publish.

- Add build:linux-ci script (deb + AppImage, no snap — snapcraft not
available on ubuntu-latest runners without extra setup)
- Switch release.yml linux build to npm run build:linux-ci
- release job: if: always() so Windows artifacts still get released
even if linux build fails
- Download artifact steps: continue-on-error so missing platform
doesn't block GitHub Release creation

- Remove rpm from linux build targets (rpmbuild not available locally)
CI can add it back with apt-get if needed, but pandoc/ffmpeg are now
bundled so the rpm depends were incorrect anyway
- Remove rpmbuild apt install step from release.yml (not needed)
- Remove pandoc/ffmpeg from deb depends — they are now bundled binaries
- Keep imagemagick and libreoffice-common in deb depends (not bundled)

- Remove package-lock.json from .gitignore so npm ci works in CI
- Refactor main.js: delegate PDF ops to src/main/PDFOperations.js,
git ops to src/main/GitOperations.js
- getPandocPath(): use bundled binary from resources/bin/ when packaged,
fall back to dev bin/ or system pandoc in development
- getFFmpegPath(): use ffmpeg-static (asarUnpack) when packaged
- Install ffmpeg-static (v5.3.0, bundled 76MB binary)
- Add scripts/download-tools.js to fetch pandoc binary at build time
(idempotent, runs on CI before electron-builder)
- electron-builder: add asarUnpack for ffmpeg-static, extraFiles for
pandoc binary per platform (linux + win32)
- release.yml: switch build-windows to windows-latest runner with native
NSIS support; add cert decode step; add download-tools step for both
linux and windows jobs
- Fix lint error: hoist outlinePanelContainer to module scope so
TabManager methods can reference it without no-undef errors

- Remove signAndEditExecutable:false so code signing works properly
- Add legalTrademarks and copyright metadata to build config
- Add publisherName via build.copyright (embedded in PE resources)
- Create scripts/create-selfsigned-cert.ps1 for local dev signing
- Update release.yml: build on windows-latest runner (not Wine),
auto-sign when CSC_LINK_BASE64/CSC_KEY_PASSWORD secrets present,
fall back to unsigned otherwise
- Add lint step to ci.yml (Phase 4.3 plan gap)
- Add .vscode/launch.json debug configs (Phase 4.3 plan gap)
- Fix .gitignore: exclude *.pfx/*.p12 cert files, track launch.json,
fix concatenated agents.md/coverage/ lines

- Bump version to 4.1.0 in package.json and index.html
- Add build:local script for combined Linux + Windows local builds
- Add CI workflow: runs tests on push/PR to master
- Add Release workflow: tag-triggered (v*), parallel Linux + Windows
builds, publishes all packages to GitHub Releases
