scripts/electron-lifecycle.mjs

// Bounded teardown for a spawned Electron tree.
//
// `ElectronApplication.close()` waits for the app to quit and has no deadline:
// a wedged main process turns teardown into an infinite hang, and everything
// sequenced after it — temp-dir cleanup, the next fixture, a CI job — never
// runs. Every consumer that launches an Electron app (the Playwright E2E
// suite and the migration contract harness) closes through here instead, so
// a launch that goes wrong costs seconds, not a hung run.
//
// Lives in scripts/ beside fixture-env.mjs for the same reason: a bare-node
// .mjs harness cannot import a .ts module, while the Playwright suite can
// import this one. One launch concern, one home.
// Resolved from the built dist (the package's entry point). On a fresh clone
// nothing under packages/ is built yet, and the raw ERR_MODULE_NOT_FOUND from
// deep inside an import chain (test file → harness → launcher → here) does
// not say what to do about it.
