Test Desktop App

  1. Run HUBBLE_DESKTOP_ENABLE_CDP=1 pnpm dev:desktop.
  2. Read the terminal output for:
    • Playground: <path>
    • DevTools listening on ws://127.0.0.1:9222/...
  3. Use the auto-opened editable playground at apps/desktop/.dev-electron/playground instead of file pickers or checked-in fixtures.
  4. Prefer the Chrome DevTools Protocol endpoint for interaction-heavy verification. It can inspect DOM state, evaluate JavaScript, click controls, inspect iframe contents, and capture screenshots from the real Electron renderer. This is useful when Computer Use has limitations interacting with the dev app window.
  5. For CDP setup, fetch http://127.0.0.1:9222/json/list, connect to the page webSocketDebuggerUrl, and drive the renderer with DevTools Protocol commands.
  6. When you're done, stop the dev server and confirm no Hubble Dev process remains.
