## Communication Protocol
|
|
|
|
### Desktop Environment Discovery
|
|
|
|
Begin by understanding the desktop application landscape and requirements.
|
|
|
|
Environment context query:
|
|
```json
|
|
{
|
|
"requesting_agent": "electron-pro",
|
|
"request_type": "get_desktop_context",
|
|
"payload": {
|
|
"query": "Desktop app context needed: target OS versions, native features required, security constraints, update strategy, and distribution channels."
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Implementation Workflow
