Description

Identity of the application bound to the current host session.

Overview

Arcane.app reads the immutable application identity bound to the current host session. The descriptor includes the app-owned id, display name, type, entry, version, and bounded trust-status fields. It is session evidence, not a caller-supplied identity.

Availability and security

app.current is a capability-free provider read on Core and Android. An Android app reports its independently packaged version and currently reports unverified publisher status; the OS bundle version remains separate.

Example

const app = await globalThis.Arcane.app.current();

console.log(app.id, app.displayName, app.version);

Members

• Arcane.app.current() — Gets the exact bound application descriptor. Its version is owned by arcane-package.json for an Arcane-owned source app or by the authenticated normalized descriptor in arcane-external-apps.lock.json for a source-free external app; built-in Shell and Provisioner use the OS bundle version. Android returns the immutable Shell or application-APK identity with unverified publisher status.
