Namespace

Description

Native appearance state and application.

Overview

Arcane.appearance reads and applies the native appearance contract. Host appearance changes can also arrive as the future-only appearance.changed event; application code should use the returned and event payload fields rather than infer theme state from operating-system internals.

Availability and security

Current-state reads require appearance.read; applying values requires appearance.write. The host validates the bounded appearance object. A method result or event is presentation state and must never grant authority.

Example

const access = await globalThis.Arcane.capabilities.list();
const canReadAppearance = access.methods.includes('appearance.current');

console.log('Native appearance read admitted:', canReadAppearance);

Members
