Turn a project into one or more real Windows desktop launchers — a self-contained `.exe` with its own Taskbar identity and a Start Menu shortcut. **Windows beta · maintainer wanted · scaffolded but not battle-tested on real hardware.** Use when the user asks to make a local web project clickable on Windows, give it an icon, package it as a Windows app, or put a launcher in the Start Menu. Mirrors the macOS app-it contract (native shell that owns its icon, warm dev-server reuse, soft-close vs quit, multi-resolution icon, one-folder install) using Windows primitives: a C# WPF + WebView2 host, PowerShell lifecycle scripts, a multi-resolution `.ico`, and a Start Menu `.lnk`. Because the author runs only macOS, every decision that needs real Windows hardware to confirm fails loudly with a pointer to `docs/WINDOWS.md` instead of guessing. Do not present this skill as a finished feature.
