What

  • Share one MIN_MAIN_WINDOW_SIZE (600×620) for both BrowserWindow create mins and normalizeMainWindowBounds / persisted bounds so half-screen tiles on scaled displays can save and restore. First-open product default stays 1100×780.

Why

Fixes #12780

Redo of closed #12859 addressing Macroscope Not-approved (product-default size): this is a persist/tiling floor bug, not a redesign of the shipped default size.

UI

Desktop: half-screen tiling can persist ~600px-wide bounds; first open still 1100×780. No settings UI change.

Checklist

  • I read CONTRIBUTING.md and kept this small / bug-only
  • What + why explained above
  • Followed AGENTS.md documentation rules (no new docs)
  • No unrelated changes
  • CLA / AI-reviewed standing override for macodev00 auto-contrib

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Bug Fixes
    • Reduced the minimum desktop window width to 600 pixels, allowing half-screen snapped windows such as 768×780 to retain their saved dimensions.
    • Updated window validation and creation behavior to consistently enforce the revised 600×620 minimum size.

840 was a persistence floor, not the first-open product size. Default
window size stays 1100x780. BrowserWindow minWidth and
normalizeMainWindowBounds now share 600 so a 768 DIP half-screen snap
on 1536-wide scaled displays can persist across restart.

Approvability

Verdict: Approved at 9abde62

Macroscope's review found this PR approvable — This is a narrowly scoped desktop sizing bug fix that aligns the persistence and Electron minimum-width floors so half-screen tiles survive restarts. The shipped first-open window size is unchanged, and targeted tests cover both restoration and window creation behavior.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The desktop window minimum width changes from 840 to 600 in persisted-bounds validation and native window creation. Tests verify rejection below 600 and retention of 768-pixel half-screen bounds.

Changes

Desktop window sizing

Layer / File(s) Summary
Bounds minimum contract and persistence
apps/desktop/src/settings/DesktopAppSettings.ts, apps/desktop/src/settings/DesktopAppSettings.test.ts
MIN_MAIN_WINDOW_SIZE is exported with a 600×620 minimum. Persisted bounds below 600 pixels wide are rejected. 768-pixel half-screen bounds are retained.
Native window minimum enforcement
apps/desktop/src/window/DesktopWindow.ts, apps/desktop/src/window/DesktopWindow.test.ts
createWindow uses the shared minimum-size constant. Tests verify 600×620 creation dimensions, rejection below 600, and persistence of 768×780 bounds.

The intended 600px minimum is implemented, but the rejection tests do not specifically verify it. Use integer-valued invalid bounds before merging to preserve regression coverage.

Use integer bounds in the width-floor rejection tests.

DesktopWindowBoundsSchema rejects fractional x, y, width, and height values through Schema.Int. The settings fixture is independently rejected by x: 10.5. The window fixture uses fractional values for every bound. A regression that accepts widths below 600 would therefore leave both tests passing.

Use otherwise valid integer bounds with width: 599 in both fixtures:
