docs(electron): mark README as beta, document allowed origins and CSP hosts by wobsoriano · Pull Request #9941 · clerk/javascript

wobsoriano · 2026-09-25T18:22:48Z

Description

Mark @clerk/electron as beta in the README warning.
Add *.protect.clerk.com and clerk-telemetry.com to the README CSP examples.
Document the allowed origins step, since a fresh instance rejects every renderer request until the renderer origins are allowlisted.

Checklist

pnpm test runs as expected.
pnpm build runs as expected.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The Electron README now describes the package as beta and lists its runtime entrypoints. It updates guidance on single-instance locks and product tokens. It documents allowed renderer origins and revises CSP examples to include Clerk protection subdomains and telemetry. Passkey documentation clarifies mode selection, autofill, platform behavior, and macOS native-passkey setup and troubleshooting. A changeset file with empty frontmatter was added.

…connect-src

The allowed origins command replaces the instance's whole list, and the rejection applies to requests that carry both headers. The passkeys tips lead-in matches its list, and external security keys stay with the Linux renderer-mode sentence. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com>

manovotny · 2026-09-29T16:25:07Z

Pushed some changes directly in bb3b85b.

The allowed origins command now says it replaces the instance's whole list, and that a GET to the same endpoint shows the current one. Run as written, it would drop origins another app on the instance depends on.
"Every renderer request" is now requests that carry both an Origin and an Authorization header, since the renderer only sends both once it has a client token.
The passkeys tips lead-in matches the list under it, and "opaque" reads "vague".
External security keys are back in the Linux sentence, so they read as part of renderer mode.
"make sure" is "ensure" in the Native API step.
