Verified 2026-09-17: the client never handles beforeinstallprompt and shows no install hint, so phone users only get the PWA if they know to dig for Share → Add to Home Screen (iOS never prompts on its own; Chromium's mini-infobar is easy to miss).
Scope
Capture beforeinstallprompt (Chromium) and show a sticky toast "Install Lotus Chat" from the second visit; tapping it calls prompt().
iOS Safari: same toast with "tap Share, then Add to Home Screen" instructions.
Never inside the Tauri app or an already-installed PWA (display-mode: standalone / navigator.standalone); snooze 30 days on dismiss (X or tap); hide for good after appinstalled.
Browsers with no install path (Firefox desktop) get nothing — no noise.
Pure decision logic unit-tested (utils/pwaInstall.ts).
