Extracts resources and JavaScript from any installed Electron app (\`.asar\` bundle), restoring original sources from \`.js.map\` files when available or formatting minified code with Prettier otherwise. Use when user wants to "extract Electron app", "decompile Electron", "get the source code of \<app\>", "inspect app.asar", "看 Electron 应用源码", "提取 .asar", or asks how a desktop Electron app is built. Skips \`node\_modules\` and supports both macOS and Windows.

## From README

Electron App Extract Extracts resources and code from an installed Electron app's app.asar. When a .js.map is present, restores the original source files from the embedded sourcesContent; otherwise formats the minified code with Prettier. Source-map paths are resolved relative to the .js.map file first, so bundled paths like ../../src/main.ts restore to readable paths such as restored/src/main.ts instead of hashed placeholders. Always skips nodemodules. Works on macOS and Windows. User Input Tools When this skill prompts the user, follow this tool-selection rule (priority order): Prefer built-in user-input tools exposed by the current agent runtime — e.g., AskUserQuestion, requestuserinput, clarify, askuser, or any equivalent. Fallback: if no such tool exists, emit a numbered plain-text message and ask the user to reply with the chosen number/answer for each question.
