docs(spec): add Electron desktop pivot design#134
Merged
Conversation
Captures the agreed architecture for converting game-server-deploy from a Nest+React web app into a single-binary cross-platform Electron desktop app. Locked decisions: full pivot to desktop, IPC bridge (Pattern B, no HTTP listener), local terraform CLI + remote S3 backend, cloud-provider seams in @gsd/shared with AWS-only impl in v1, Discord receiver abstracted (AWS Lambda concrete), three-target unsigned MVP. Migration plan repurposes epics #80-82, closes #83 + stale #5/#6/#7/#10/#43/#103, and decomposes work into seven new epics across four releasable milestones.

Pull request overview
Adds a new “Electron Desktop Pivot” design spec under docs/superpowers/specs/, documenting the planned migration from the current Nest+React web app to a single-binary Electron desktop application with IPC-based Nest services, local Terraform orchestration, and cloud-provider abstraction seams.
Changes:
- Introduces a comprehensive desktop pivot design spec covering architecture, interfaces, Terraform orchestration model, testing strategy, and migration plan.
- Defines “locked” decisions and a milestone/epic breakdown intended to drive upcoming issue restructuring.
A prior replace_all of "playwright-electron" pasted backtick-wrapped phrasing inside already-backticked spans at three sites, producing broken markdown rendering on lines 329, 377, and 392. Rewrite each site with a single, non-nested backtick group. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 <noreply@anthropic.com>

Summary
Adds the agreed design spec for converting game-server-deploy from a Nest+React web app into a single-binary Electron desktop application. Captures locked decisions, runtime architecture, cloud-provider abstraction seams, migration plan, and the seven new epics (A–G) decomposed across four releasable milestones.
The spec is the single source of truth that the upcoming GitHub issue restructure will reference:
