Neutralino.js Platform Skill

Consolidated skill for building cross-platform desktop applications with Neutralino.js. Use decision trees below to find the right APIs and configuration options, then load detailed references.

When to Apply

• Building desktop utilities with file system operations
• Executing system commands or managing processes
• Creating apps with tray icons, notifications, or clipboard integration
• Accessing system information (CPU, memory, displays)

Critical Rules

Follow these rules in all Neutralino.js code:

1. Always use neu create <path> for new projects unless explicitly asked to create from scratch.
2. Import @neutralinojs/lib for frontend frameworks (React, Vue, etc.) instead of including neutralino.js directly.
3. Never use tokenSecurity: none when exposing native APIs - always use one-time (default) for security.
4. Configure nativeAllowList and nativeBlockList to restrict API access and enhance security.
