Develop

npm install
cargo test --workspace                 # core logic (scan, fsx, manifest, process, driver, health)
npx vite                               # UI in a browser uses a mock IPC (src/dev/mock.ts)
cargo build -p coa-server-manager      # native app (debug build loads http://localhost:1420)

Live checks against a real repack: cargo run -p coa-core --example scan -- <folder> (read-only). Start/stop testing must use a disposable copy: tools/make-fixture.ps1 builds C:\games\coa-fixture on offset ports from the pristine packaged database. Never run start/stop against a server in use. tests/e2e/cdp.mjs drives the real window through WebView2 remote debugging (WEBVIEW2_ADDITIONAL_BROWSER_ARGUMENTS=--remote-debugging-port=9222).
