+1. **Done — Move from CLI-only to real app integration**
 
-   Add a GUI command/control path for “stream install / low disk mode”,
+   The GUI now has an explicit “Low disk install” action in the game detail
-   probably behind an explicit option. The Tauri crate currently opts out with
+   modal for remote-only games. The Tauri backend queues that path through
-   `stream_install_provider: None`, so the GUI cannot use it yet.
+   `stream_install_game`, injects the shared external `unrar` stream provider,
+   and hands fetched file details to `StreamInstallGame` instead of the normal
+   download command.
 
 2. **Replace per-file `unrar p` with a final archive provider**
