# Claudify
|
|
|
|
Native desktop wrapper for [claude.ai](https://claude.ai) built with Tauri v2 and WebKitGTK.
|
|
|
|
## Architecture
|
|
|
|
- **Tauri v2** with Rust backend, system WebKitGTK webview on Linux
|
|
- **Direct webview navigation** to `https://claude.ai` (not iframe — claude.ai blocks iframes via CSP)
|
|
- **No frontend code** — `src/index.html` is a placeholder required by Tauri's build system; the actual UI is claude.ai loaded via `WebviewUrl::External`
|
|
- All app logic lives in `src-tauri/src/lib.rs` inside the `setup()` closure
|
|
|
|
## Key Files
|
|
|
|
| File | Purpose |
|
|
|------|---------|
|
|
| `src-tauri/src/lib.rs` | All app logic: window, tray, notifications, navigation filter |
|
|
| `src-tauri/src/main.rs` | Entry point, calls `claudify::run()` |
|
|
| `src-tauri/tauri.conf.json` | Tauri config: app identity, bundle targets, security |
|
|
| `src-tauri/capabilities/` | Tauri v2 permission grants for local window and remote claude.ai |
|
|
| `src-tauri/Cargo.toml` | Rust dependencies |
|
|
|
|
## Building
|
|
|
|
### Prerequisites
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
# Debian/Ubuntu system packages
|
|
sudo apt install libwebkit2gtk-4.1-dev libxdo-dev librsvg2-dev libayatana-appindicator3-dev
|
|
|
|
# Tauri CLI
|
|
cargo install tauri-cli --version "^2.0" --locked
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Build
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
cargo tauri build # Produces .deb in target/release/bundle/deb/
|
|
cargo tauri dev # Development mode with hot reload
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Known Issues
|
|
|
|
- **CSD titlebar buttons non-interactive after hide/show** — Upstream bug in TAO's client-side decoration handling. Titlebar buttons (minimize/maximize/close) become unresponsive after the window is hidden to tray and restored. The close button still works via the tray menu. No known workaround — GTK decoration layout overrides, header bar replacement, resize nudges, and present() were all attempted without success. Tracked at:

|
## Conventions
|
|
|
|
- Keep all app logic in `lib.rs` — avoid splitting into multiple modules unless complexity demands it
|
|
- Navigation allowlist in `is_allowed_navigation()` — add new OAuth providers here if needed
|
|
- Test changes with `cargo tauri dev` before building .deb
