## Runtime Sockets
The renderer↔main bridge above lives *inside* the Electron app. A separate set of OS sockets connects the app to the other runtimes — mpv and the launcher/plugin. These carry no renderer payloads and bypass the contract/validator layer; they are command and property channels between processes.
- **mpv IPC socket** (`/tmp/subminer-socket`, or `\\.\pipe\subminer-socket` on Windows): the `MpvIpcClient` in the main process connects here to send JSON commands and subscribe to playback/subtitle properties via `observe_property`. Created by mpv's `--input-ipc-server`.
- **App control socket** (`/tmp/subminer-control-<uid>-<hash>.sock`, or a named pipe on Windows): the launcher and the mpv plugin send CLI-style commands (`--start`, `--show-visible-overlay`, `--texthooker`) to a running app here. It also dedupes a second `subminer` invocation into the existing instance instead of launching twice.

How these sockets are established during launch is covered in [Playback Startup Flow](./architecture#playback-startup-flow).
