Teknium 931bf613b1 fix(browser): Windows real-profile fails fast when the browser is running
Live windows-latest proof settled it: a running Chrome opens its cookie DB
deny-all (even CreateFile with FILE_SHARE_READ|WRITE|DELETE fails; sqlite
mode=ro/immutable/nolock all 'unable to open'), so copy-while-running is
impossible on Windows without VSS/admin — and the prior code HUNG ~24min on the
locked file.

Fix: a fast up-front lock probe (_profile_is_locked: one open() of the active
profile's cookie DB; PermissionError = locked) runs BEFORE any copy in
snapshot_real_profile. If locked, bail immediately with 'fully quit the browser
(incl. background/tray) and retry, or turn browser.use_real_profile off'. Never
hangs, never a silent signed-out copy. POSIX has no mandatory locking so the
probe never trips there — copy-while-running still works on macOS/Linux.

Docs: admonition stating Windows needs the browser fully closed (background
apps included); the live-drive-while-running path is #95669.

Tests: lock-probe unit coverage (readable/no-db/PermissionError), snapshot
fails-fast-no-copytree when locked. Windows live E2E asserts the fast-fail
contract (returns <30s with the quit message) + the read-strategy diagnostic.

Website

This website is built using Docusaurus, a modern static website generator.

Installation

yarn

Local Development

yarn start

This command starts a local development server and opens up a browser window. Most changes are reflected live without having to restart the server.

Build

yarn build

This command generates static content into the build directory and can be served using any static contents hosting service.

Deployment

Using SSH:

USE_SSH=true yarn deploy

Not using SSH:

GIT_USER=<Your GitHub username> yarn deploy

If you are using GitHub pages for hosting, this command is a convenient way to build the website and push to the gh-pages branch.

Diagram Linting

CI runs ascii-guard to lint docs for ASCII box diagrams. Use Mermaid (````mermaid`) or plain lists/tables instead of ASCII boxes to avoid CI failures.
