Fixes verified working

  • F004 is fully verified in this pass: cmd /c npm run typecheck, cmd /c npm run lint, and two consecutive cmd /c npm test runs all passed, with 529 tests green on both test runs.
  • F003 is still only partial, but the repo-side fix is holding: cmd /c npm run build now succeeds and emits fresh renderer/main bundles before build:win reaches the external app-builder.exe sandbox limit.
  • F002 improved versus the pre-fix state because cmd /c npm start now rebuilds renderer and main successfully before exiting, so the missing-renderer fallback defect is no longer the observed blocker on this path.
  • F073-F078 were re-verified with fresh targeted tests covering git status, publish recovery/conflict paths, and document-create validation/failure mapping.
  • Regression checks near the modified files stayed green: installer config (F007), filename validation (F036-F038), quick browse (F046-F049), and direct configService / pathService / logger coverage all passed.

Not resolved

  • F001 still fails before a usable dev session opens because concurrently throws spawn EPERM.
  • F002 still exits with wrapper code 1 before a usable packaged-style window is observable; this pass did not capture a stable electron.exe snapshot or titled window.
  • F003 remains partial because electron-builder still fails at app-builder.exe: spawn EPERM.
  • F005 still fails at integrated boot; that keeps F006 and F010-F027 blocked for human-visible renderer validation even though the focused component coverage is green.
  • F029 and F040 remain environment-blocked in this sandbox because fresh Node probes still return spawnSync git EPERM and spawnSync powershell.exe EPERM.

Regressions introduced

  • No confirmed functional regressions were introduced in this verification pass.
  • No previously passing feature regressed in the sampled areas around the fix-set.

Remaining work

  • Rework npm run dev so it does not depend on the blocked concurrently child-process fan-out in this environment.
  • Diagnose why npm start exits with code 1 after successful renderer/main builds and before a usable Electron window is observable.
  • Re-run npm run build:win on a host that allows app-builder.exe to launch.
  • Re-run live git publish and live Word COM creation on a host that allows Node child-process execution for git and powershell.exe.
