First step of Phase E.1 from the new spec at docs/superpowers/specs/2026-05-08-embedded-teams-orchestration.md: a third icon in the left rail launches the Microsoft Teams desktop client as a subprocess of TeamsISO so the operator doesn't have to leave the app to start a meeting.
Services/TeamsLauncher tries the ms-teams: URI first, falls back to %LOCALAPPDATA%\\Microsoft\\WindowsApps\\ms-teams.exe (new Teams), then the classic Update.exe handoff. On failure surfaces a friendly MessageBox with the install link.
The spec doc lays out the full three-phase roadmap (launcher -> window orchestration -> in-app meeting controls via Graph API or UIAutomation) and explicitly calls out what's out of scope (replacing Teams' media stack).
_NEXT.md updated to mark Phase D done and queue Phase E + remaining polish items (code-signing, Inter/JetBrains Mono font bundling, real Wild Dragon dragon-mark, drops counter, running-fps display).
MainWindow drops the standard Windows title bar (WindowStyle=None + WindowChrome with CaptionHeight=44, ResizeBorderThickness=6, UseAeroCaptionButtons=False) and draws its own minimize / maximize-restore / close buttons inline in the existing header strip. The custom buttons opt into shell:WindowChrome.IsHitTestVisibleInChrome=True so clicks fire on them rather than starting a window drag.
Result: the entire top of the window is now ours, matching the Microsoft Teams desktop client's flush header look. The 'TeamsISO + by Wild Dragon' branding sits at the same baseline as the engine-status pill and the caption controls, and dragging anywhere not occupied by an interactive widget moves the window.
Caption-button styles in the theme: 46x32 hover-tinted, with the close button turning the Windows 11 #C42B1C red on hover. Maximize-button glyph swaps between the single-rectangle and overlapping-rectangles variants on StateChanged.
Drive-by: ParticipantViewModel.{FramesIn,FramesOut,IncomingResolution} setters dropped from private to public so {Run Text=...} bindings (which default to TwoWay on Run) can attach without WPF throwing 'cannot work on read-only property'.
- TeamsISO.App: hand-rolled net8.0-windows WPF csproj since the WPF
template isn't shipped on linux-arm64 .NET SDK; UI is a placeholder
for Phase C.
- TeamsISO.Engine.IntegrationTests: cross-platform xunit project with a
skipped scaffold fact tagged [Trait("requires", "ndi")] for Phase B.
- TeamsISO.Linux.slnf: solution filter for non-Windows CI that excludes
the WPF project (which can only build on Windows).
