 "title": "Package a standalone Haros app for your platform",
 "page_title": "How to package a standalone Haros app for your platform with Haros",
 "summary": "Build a local Haros desktop app for macOS, Windows, or Linux from source.",
 "who": "A user who wants Haros as a normal app icon instead of running it from a source checkout, or who needs a build for a machine without an official installer.",
 "problem": "An installer may not exist for your platform, and running from source each time is slow to repeat.",
 "outcome": "A packaged Haros app for your platform: a local .app on macOS, an x64 NSIS installer on Windows, or an x64 AppImage on Linux.",
 "steps": [
  "Run `git clone https://github.com/piai-lab/Haros.git`, then `cd Haros`, then `bun install --frozen-lockfile`.",
  "On macOS, run `bun run dist:desktop:local-app`; on Windows, run `bun run dist:desktop:win`; on Linux, run `bun run dist:desktop:linux`.",
  "On Apple Silicon, open the app with `open apps/desktop/.electron-runtime/local-app/arm64/mac-arm64/Haros.app`; on Intel Macs, use `apps/desktop/.electron-runtime/local-app/x64/mac/Haros.app`.",
  "Quit Haros before rebuilding, and leave any explicit `--output-dir` empty."
 ],
 "agent_prompt": "In the piai-lab/Haros repo, run the packaging command for <platform> from the README after `bun install --frozen-lockfile`. Report the path of the generated app or installer. Verify that the output file exists at that path before reporting success.",

 "difficulty": "Intermediate",
 "time": "60 minutes",
 "basis": "readme",
 "caveat": "Local builds are unsigned and macOS builds are not notarized, and a successful build on one OS does not validate the others.",

 "lang": "typescript",
 "requirements": [
  "Bun 1.3.9+ within Bun 1.x (the repo pins Bun 1.3.12)",

  "Git",
  "Each CLI-based Harness installed and authenticated on your machine, or a model service and its credentials added in Settings → Model services for Pi or another API Engine"
