Convert the app's main and preload source from .js to .ts (git mv preserves
history), adding types where they carry value: the core-consumption seam
(BuildIndexOptions/BuildIndexResult, FileInfo), the indexer service/worker
factories, and the preload IPC bridge. Module-to-module specifiers use the
real .ts extension (mirroring scripts/, since Node type-stripping does not
rewrite .js->.ts); the worker's runtime path stays indexer-worker.js because
that is the built output.
Toolchain:
- Add app/tsconfig.json: strict but noImplicitAny:false (the app orchestrates
the already-strict core; annotating every SQLite-handle helper is low-value
churn) + allowImportingTsExtensions (safe under noEmit).
- Add @types/better-sqlite3 for the injected binding.
- electron.vite.config.ts inputs -> .ts; refresh the stale CommonJS comment.
- typecheck script runs root + app projects. Root tsconfig excludes the
app-importing tests (app-*.test.mjs, recap-capture-query.test.mjs) so the
lenient app files are not dragged into the strict root program; the app
source is covered by app/tsconfig.json instead. See docs/adr/0005.
Verified: npm run typecheck (root + app) clean; suite 121/121; electron-vite
build emits all 6 main entries + preload with no .ts/node:sqlite residue in
the bundles.

App source (main/preload/worker/renderer) -> ESM; app is now type: module;
__dirname via import.meta.url; worker spawned with type module. Preload is built
as CJS (electron-vite output format) because the sandboxed renderer does not
support ESM preload; main loads ../preload/index.js. Removed dead imports
(nativeImage, readline) and the obsolete scripts/dev.js.
Tests: 4 app tests require->import; app-main-settings rewritten with node:test
mock.module + dynamic import (replacing CJS Module._load mocking); test script
adds --experimental-test-module-mocks. electron-vite build clean, 119/119, and
npm run dev verified: app launches, preload bridges IPC, data loads.
tsconfig.build.json emits providers/* + persist (+ their parsing.mjs/types deps)
to dist/ as ESM JS + .d.ts. Output is verified node:sqlite-free and functionally
runnable (parse+persist against an injected db). Foundation for the app importing
the shared core.
> obelisk@0.1.0 build:core
> rm -rf dist && tsc -p tsconfig.build.json; dist/ is gitignored.
Core exposes buildIndex/searchText/executeQuery/executeAttune as the single shared
implementation for all transports. First TypeScript module, run via Node type
stripping in dev. Adds typescript-eslint. lint/typecheck green, test 107/107.
Root package.json (type: module), strict tsconfig with allowJs/checkJs:false for
gradual migration, flat ESLint config scoped to scripts/ + tests/. App untouched.
All three green: lint, typecheck, test 107/107.
