…ver) resolveServerOrigin forced TLS on every injected serverHost, so a desktop shell pointed at a local dev server (OPENFRONT_SERVER_HOST=localhost:9000) dialed wss://localhost:9000 and failed the TLS handshake before a single frame. Loopback hostnames (localhost, 127.0.0.1, [::1]) now resolve insecure; every other injected host keeps TLS, and the web build — which injects no serverHost — is untouched.

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win
Normalize the hostname before the loopback comparison.
LOCALHOST:9000 is a valid case-insensitive hostname. It does not match "localhost", so this code returns wss:// and https:// for a plain local server. Convert the hostname to lowercase before the comparison. Add a mixed-case localhost case to both base-helper tests.
Proposed fix
- const hostname = serverHost.replace(/:\d+$/, "");
+ const hostname = serverHost.replace(/:\d+$/, "").toLowerCase();📝 Committable suggestion
‼️ IMPORTANT
Carefully review the code before committing. Ensure that it accurately replaces the highlighted code, contains no missing lines, and has no issues with indentation. Thoroughly test & benchmark the code to ensure it meets the requirements.

What
resolveServerOrigin(src/client/ClientEnv.ts) forced TLS on every injectedserverHost. A desktop shell pointed at a local dev server (OPENFRONT_SERVER_HOST=localhost:9000) therefore dialedwss://localhost:9000/https://localhost:9000against a plain-HTTPnpm run devserver and failed the TLS handshake before a single frame — there was no way to run the desktop app against a local game server at all.Loopback hostnames (
localhost,127.0.0.1,[::1]) now resolve insecure (ws:///http://). Every other injected host keeps TLS.Why it's safe
openfront.io:9000stayswss://, and alocalhost.openfront.iosubdomain stayswss://too — the check is exact-match, not substring.serverHost, so it never reaches this branch; its same-origin behaviour is untouched (existing tests cover it).deriveServerWsBase/deriveServerHttpBase) flow through this one function, so HTTP and WS cannot disagree about the scheme — the lockstep test now covers the loopback row as well.Test plan
npx vitest tests/client/ServerWsBase.test.ts tests/client/ServerHttpBase.test.ts --run— 27 pass (5 new loopback cases on the ws side incl. the two non-loopback guards, 1 new http case, 1 new lockstep row).vendor/OpenFrontIO,OPENFRONT_SERVER_HOST=localhost:9000against a localnpm run devserver — lobby socket connects overws://, games joinable; without it,handshake failed … net_error -107on every attempt.🤖 Generated with Claude Code
