Greptile Summary

The PR adds native macOS Help documentation search and routes the desktop View > Search command to the workspace search modal.

• Builds and packages a universal macOS Node-API/AppKit search provider.
• Registers and cleans up the provider with the Electron lifecycle.
• Adds a typed open-search desktop command and Mod+K menu action.
• Adds bridge and menu unit coverage.

Confidence Score: 5/5

The PR appears safe to merge with no concrete blocking or independently actionable non-blocking defects identified.

The native provider is platform-gated, packaged at its resolved runtime path, validates remote URLs, cancels superseded work, and is cleaned up idempotently; the new search command is consistently represented across the main process, preload transport, shared type, and workspace listener.

Important Files Changed

Filename	Overview
apps/desktop/native/help-search.mm	Implements a bounded, cancellable AppKit Help search provider with endpoint and result URL validation.
apps/desktop/scripts/build.ts	Compiles the native provider as a universal macOS Node-API bundle while leaving non-macOS builds portable.
apps/desktop/src/main/help-search.ts	Loads, validates, installs, and safely uninstalls the optional native bridge.
apps/desktop/src/main/index.ts	Integrates Help provider lifecycle management and routes the search menu command to the main renderer.
apps/desktop/src/main/menu.ts	Adds View > Search with the Mod+K accelerator and delegates activation through injected menu dependencies.
apps/sim/app/workspace/[workspaceId]/components/workspace-chrome/workspace-chrome.tsx	Handles the new desktop command by mirroring the existing search-modal toggle behavior.
packages/desktop-bridge/src/index.ts	Extends the shared desktop command contract with the additive open-search command.
