feat: keep questions open for a real lease and pin the desktop Host port - #91
feat: keep questions open for a real lease and pin the desktop Host port#91elkaix wants to merge 4 commits into
Conversation
Questions no longer expire after 60 seconds. An expired lease is no longer reported as a user dismissal, answers carry the question text and the option labels the user saw, and Escape no longer dismisses an open question.
An OS-assigned port changed on every launch, so the web origin changed with it and browser-stored settings were lost. The Host now binds a fixed port, with a PYTHINKER_DESKTOP_PORT override and a retry dialog when the port is busy. The updater also reports updates as unavailable when a packaged build has no app-update.yml.

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟠 Major | 🏗️ Heavy lift
Do not overwrite answers for duplicate question text.
flattened uses displayed question text as its record key. Two request items can have different IDs and the same question value. The later answer then overwrites the earlier answer.
Reject duplicate question text before dispatch, or change the in-process result shape to retain per-item identity. Add a duplicate-text test.

Remove the response type assertions.
InProcessQuestionResponse already declares method. The assertions widen the declared type and bypass the response contract. Access inProc.method directly.
Proposed fix
- expect((inProc as { method?: string }).method).toBeUndefined();
+ expect(inProc.method).toBeUndefined();
...
- expect((inProc as { method?: string }).method).toBe('enter');
+ expect(inProc.method).toBe('enter');As per path instructions, published library code must flag type assertions added to silence errors.
