+# after EA shut down the official servers. It is a Windows app (Flutter/Rust).
 #
-# ── Why this is the RIGHT place to run Kyber ───────────────────────────────
+# ── How Kyber's EA login actually works ────────────────────────────────────
 #
-# Kyber's login redirects to a qrc:// URI (a Qt-internal resource scheme) that
-# only its OWN embedded WebView2 can intercept. WebView2 therefore MUST work.
+# Kyber uses the "Maxima" OAuth PKCE flow:
+#   1. Kyber starts a temporary HTTP server on 127.0.0.1 (dynamic port ~41413+)
+#   2. It calls  cmd /c start ""  "<EA auth URL>"  to open a browser
+#   3. You log in on the EA page; EA redirects to  127.0.0.1:PORT/?code=...
+#   4. Kyber's HTTP server catches the code and exchanges it for tokens
 #
-# Inside a Wolf / Games-on-Whales Docker container, WebView2 cannot start:
-# Proton wraps Wine in bubblewrap (bwrap), and nesting that inside Docker
-# blocks CLONE_NEWUSER, which WebView2's subprocess sandbox requires. The
-# result is endless login failures (see setup-kyber-wolf.sh for the gory
-# details and the fake-cmd.exe / Firefox workarounds that still cannot finish
-# the flow because no external browser can handle qrc://).
+# On native Linux, Wine's built-in cmd.exe passes http(s):// URLs to
+# xdg-open, which launches your system browser. Steam's pressure-vessel
+# (bwrap) sandbox does NOT block xdg-open on native Linux — xdg-open reaches
+# the host desktop and the browser opens normally.
 #
-# On NATIVE Linux Steam there is only a single bwrap layer (Proton's own),
-# which has enough namespace privilege for WebView2 to initialize. So here the
-# login flow works as designed: Kyber opens its built-in browser, you log in
-# to EA, EA redirects to qrc://, and Kyber's WebView2 catches the auth code.
+# After you approve the EA login page the browser is redirected to
+# 127.0.0.1:PORT (Kyber's loopback server). The browser hits that address,
+# Kyber receives the auth code, and login completes. No special shims needed.
 #
-# No fake cmd.exe. No Firefox. No URL watcher. None of that scaffolding is
-# needed here — it only existed to work around WebView2 being unable to start.
+# ── Why NOT to run Kyber inside Wolf / Games-on-Whales ─────────────────────
 #
-# ── Do you still need WebView2? YES ────────────────────────────────────────
+# Wolf runs Docker + Proton's bwrap nested. The double-sandbox blocks
+# CLONE_NEWUSER which breaks WebView2, AND the inner bwrap prevents
+# xdg-open from reaching the host display. Kyber's loopback redirect to
+# 127.0.0.1:PORT also fails inside the container network stack. Use native
+# Linux Steam instead — it's the supported path.
 #
-# WebView2 is not the problem — it is the solution. It is the only component
-# that can complete Kyber's EA OAuth login. This script makes sure the
-# WebView2 Evergreen RUNTIME (not just the bootstrapper stub) is actually
-# installed in Kyber's Wine prefix. If only the stub is present, Kyber falls
-# back to `cmd /c start <url>` and login fails even on native Linux.
+# ── WebView2 ───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
+#
+# WebView2 is NOT required for the login flow (Maxima handles that). This
+# script still installs the WebView2 Evergreen runtime because Kyber may use
+# it for in-app content rendering. Installing it causes no harm and prevents
+# any fallback-related error dialogs inside Kyber.
 #
 # ── Headless note ──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
 #
-# On a headless GPU box you do not need Wolf to stream. Use Steam Remote Play:
-# install Steam, set up a virtual display so Steam has something to render to,
-# add Kyber + SWBF2, then connect with the Steam Link app from any device.
-# This script sets up a dummy/virtual X display if no display is detected.
+# On a headless GPU box use Steam Remote Play: install Steam, configure a
+# virtual/dummy display so Steam has something to render to, add Kyber +
+# SWBF2, then connect with the Steam Link app from any device.
